Previously, our resident hermit, Eliza, mentioned she would be venturing outside (the first time in months) to purchase a pretty sweet Xbox 360 bundle that includes a Premium Console, Saint's Row, Dead Rising and Test Drive Unlimited all for US $359.96. Sweet enough to make even the biggest agoraphobe venture over to their local Fry's Outpost and pick it up. Eliza, included.

Well, Eliza just pinged me (she's an insomniac as well) to let me know the deal is lame. It's still pretty good, but ripe with the bad aftertaste of suckage. The Fry's Outpost website now lists the bundle as $449.99. That's not nearly as good as promised and very, very lame. So lame that Eliza is now on the fence—not just about buying it, but leaving the house. Brian Ashcraft
