250GB Xbox 360 holiday bundle packs in Alan Wake, Forza 3

This Thursday Microsoft will unleash its full-body motion-tracking tech, Kinect, to the masses both as a $150 stand-alone product and in bundle form. In addition, the company is preparing another Xbox 360 bundle that includes popular system exclusives.

Director of Xbox Live programming Larry "Major Nelson" Hryb recently announced the Xbox 360 holiday bundle via his blog. The bundle will include a 250GB Xbox 360 and two system-exclusive titles: Turn 10's Forza Motorsport 3 and Remedy Entertainment's Alan Wake, which will be available via a download token. The system bundle will retail for $300 and will be available at retailers "in the next few weeks."

Last year Microsoft offered a holiday bundle as well. That $300 version included an Xbox 360 Elite and copies of Disney Interactive's racer Pure and Warner Bros.' superhero action game Lego Batman.
