Microsoft to Sell $99 Xbox 360 Bundle

Want a brand-new Xbox 360 for a dirt cheap price? It is possible! Microsoft will release an Xbox 360 bundle that costs only $99.

The single-Benjamin bundle will consist of a 4GB Xbox 360 console (not a lot of storage, I know), a Kinect sensor, and a two-year subscription to Xbox Live Gold. And as expected with a promo this cheap, this bundle would require owners to shell out a $15 monthly fee for the service. Gamers with regular online gameplay features, as well as extra content from cable providers.

Adding the two-year fee, the bundle would cost $459 in total, which is quite a lot compared to the $418 price tag for the similar bundle when purchased outright. Pick your poison, I guess.

Should you choose to cut the Xbox Live Gold service before the two-year period is up, Microsoft will charge you an early termination fee. The exact amount remains unclear, but expect it to be pretty hefty.

The $99 Xbox 360 bundle is expected to launch as early as next week.
