So what's the problem?

Yes we've all known all along that these games were given to use for the BETA period.

Frankly I had hoped that they would keep Revolt alive, but it's going too.

With the Final Retail bundle you'll end up with ONE non-expiring XBLive only game.

That's how it works.

                                    They give you a FREE retail upgrade disc after the beta is over.

Yeap that's the plan.

With the purchase of the Retail pack (which we all get) ONE XBLive non-expiring ONLINE ONLY game is supposed to be included.

When we get the final retail disks, we'll get the game on the updater disk.

^^^^^
opjose: Where did you here/read this? As far as I've seen, MotoGP & Whacked demo's are the "game" shipping with the retail kit.

I'm not contesting you, but would just like a link to some info on it.

^^^^^^ And your point?


Whatever the retail kit includes you will get. Just because you already have them in the beta form, doesn't mean you won't get them again in retail form.

From my understanding MotoGP and Whacked demo's are the retail kit included games.

If I am wrong then great, but as for now, with less than 3 weeks till retail launch, I would find it unlikely to see them add a totally new game to the kit.

Like I said though... If I am wrong, then great.

Yeah I think your right.   In the Official Xbox Magazine it says that Moto GP, and Whacked are going to be in the retail kit.
