Posted by CmdrTaco on from the just-gimme-my-doa dept.

Tom writes "According to news in the LA Times, Microsoft will release two Xbox 360 packages when the console is launched later this year. The basic package will retail for $299 and will not include a hard disk, nor will it include a wireless controller, instead shipping with a wired pad. The second package will retail for $399 and will include a 20 Gb hard disk, wireless controller, wireless headset, Ethernet cable and remote control. No release date has been revealed, but a mid to late November date is expected."

    Remains to be seen? Profits down 80 percent this year, marquee title (Zelda) pushed back to 06, absolutely no info on the revolution (except some convolted new controller and the ability to buy nostaligia and download it), failure to cater to any audience above 13, and it remains to be seen? What, exactly, remains to be seen?
