XBox 360 Sell Sheets

This morning I stumbled across these wonderful scans of the XBox 360 sell sheets.  These are sent out to retailers showing off all the selling points of the system.  Also discovered was the fact that our story posted yesterday about the $49.99 price tag was in fact right on the money.  Remember who loves you now?

Anyways check out this link below and take a look at the sell sheets that were sent out yesterday evening.  You can clearly see all of the accesories, pricing, and differences between each version of the system, enjoy.

Quote from the person who got the sheets.

"Finally, MS has stated that, at least first party titles will priced in parity with current generation games. Meaning, that current major titles retail for $49.99, the same will be true for Xbox 360 games. Bargain titles sell for $29.99 or less, the same will be true for the Xbox 360 titles. Third party devs can set their own prices for their games, but as I said earlier, I think they would be foolish to charge more than what MS will charge for its own titles."

So it might be true after all then hmm , good new if this will be the case

2 - Good news
Unregistered - Thedude 08.19.2005 10:53
This is great news! Now I can get 5 games instead of 4 :)

3 - Look at the wired controller specs
Unregistered - Huey2k2 08.19.2005 11:44
If you look at the wired controller specs it says "Works with most Windows XP-based PC's" Sweet

with the VGA cable i can play games in hd on my monitor YAY

5 - Camera?!?
Unregistered - Chad 08.19.2005 12:33
What ever happened to the webcam-like camera? I haven't heard anything about it price wise and it isn't in the pamphlet. What's up?

6 - not everything
Unregistered - Josh 08.19.2005 15:09
they didnt put everything in it like the plug and play adapter

7 - WTF!?
Unregistered - xiaoxiao22 08.19.2005 15:21
So they make every game require High-Definition but you have to buy extra accessoreis or pay for an entire bundle to get it. I smell Bullsh!t.

8 - Uhh...
Unregistered - Burnt Toast 08.19.2005 15:38
All XBox 360 games have HD support, not require HD, you tard. :D

9 - Wireless controller for "core" package?
Unregistered - Ryster 08.19.2005 15:48
The spec sheet seems to indicate that a wireless controller will be included in the cheaper "core" package, I believe this is false. Could these sheets have been faked?

10 - sweet!
Unregistered - CDOG 08.19.2005 16:54
Just wanted to comment on comment #8, haha, sweet burn man.

11 - Wireless controller no matter what?
Unregistered - Robc 08.19.2005 17:00
I noticed the thing about the wireelss controller as well, but i think what it means is the charging cord is not included, perhaps as luxury on the top end package they include rechargable batteries and the charger cord I saw on the other sheets? It's the only thing that makes sense to me, other than these being faked or some simiarl discrepancy. Also I thought the wireless game controller is included regardless, and the TV remote type controller was one of the upscale items in the high end package.

12 - Good > Best Experience: Funny!
Unregistered - Tim 08.19.2005 17:13
I find it hilarious (since it's a blatant lie) that you'd have the "Best" experience with:
1. wireless internet rather than wired --- it's really whatever is convenient!
2. custom faceplate rather than the standard --- doesn't affect gameplay at all!

anyone notice some fishy details about the 360 price? its $399 and 399euro..? $399 is equal to 327 euro! so whats up with that? charging europe an extra..70 euro? and the UK gets it for 270 pounds or somwehting...which is...411 euro? so there is an extra 10 euro ontop of their price! Man i hope they work that all out. I will probably buy my one in australia...usually cheaper there :P but apart from that detail looks cool. I hope i can pick up a fully loaded 360. and some cheapo games to go with it...i guess the next question is...WHEN DO WE GET IT?!

14 - psqtt!
Unregistered - kung foo jedi 08.19.2005 17:43
Easy mathy!

15 - Good Stuff
Unregistered - College Student 08.19.2005 17:58
lets hope the price say at that level.

Unregistered - ur360tards 08.19.2005 18:58
FIRST party games will be 49.99...history has shown that 3rd party games are normally $10 higher....until the end of the consoles life and they have recouped costs. Sony's first party games on the average are $10 cheaper than the 3rd party games.

17 - Pimp my xbox
Unregistered - Jordan 08.19.2005 20:57

Did anyone else notice on the list of components in each package the last thing says premium chrome detail? the strangest thing is that the core system package is not available with the chrome! so that means that you get a different case if you Buy the $399 version. Microsoft is straight pimpin'!!!

400 bucks? It's gonna drop by release. They want to embrace casual gamers, not freak them out. That's PS3 prices, not Xbox 360 prices.

Unregistered - Burnt Toast 08.19.2005 23:50
What do you think the core package is, Turbine? The core package IS for the casual gamer. The premium package is for the hardcore, gotta have everything wireless, l33t gamer. :P

Geeze, sometimes I wonder...


20 - Its a book.
Unregistered - John 08.20.2005 08:08
The store can print out loadzs of these and the customers can pick them up to read or take home. Its an infomation booklet. Dats the word =P

21 - Core Package
Unregistered - pimp1000 08.20.2005 17:25
The core package has only the system and a wireless and wired controler, AV Cables, and live glod 30 day tail and silvers free. I pre-ordered the xbox 360 not the core its worth it, because if you add up all the accessories it ends up being $540 (I think). If you get the hard drive its already $400! Its soo worth it.

Its MR GEEK GATES himself and he'll be on his calculator until the release finding out the perfect price for Canada etc ! Don't worry fellow XBOX 360 buyers !!!

25 - Core System Comes w/ 2 Controllers!?
Unregistered - YomasterXBL 08.21.2005 13:08
If you look at the list of everything that comes with both types of systems, you'll notice that in the Premium System's sheet it shows that the wireless controller is included and the wired controller is optional, but in the core system's, it shows that both types of controllers are included.

26 - PRICE?
Unregistered - Kaleb 08.23.2005 20:45
where does it say games will be $49.99?

27 - WoW
Unregistered - Eric 08.24.2005 14:35
WoW I thought that this site was very good but i still have some questions about the new system, Like for one thing there have been more roumers that for more money you can buy a version of the Xbox360 that is compatible with computer games. I want this type but i need to know if it actually exists
