Microsoft is reportedly planning to release its Xbox 360 bundle beginning next week for $99. If rumors are to be believed, it could rival a TV infomercial’s promise — “but wait, there’s more” — by including the Kinect motion control sensor with a 4 GB version of the game console. However, as with the infomercials, there is fine print, which in this case details a monthly subscription fee of $15. That two-year subscription will offer access to the Xbox Live Gold service, along with the possibility of some additional streamed content that could include sports or cable TV offerings.
