Microsoft has responded to
Sony’s price cut of the PlayStation 3 by
announcing that UK buyers of the Xbox 360 HD-DVD drive will receive a bundle of
films free.
The Redmond firm's gaming unit has announced that buyers will get five free
HD-DVDs when they spend £114.99 on an Xbox 360 HD-DVD drive. With HD-DVDs
retailing for around £25 each, the deal almost covers the cost of the drive.
When buyers of the drives make their purchases, they will be given a form to
fill out which will allow them to choose from 13 digital films. The movies take
28 days to arrive and the deal will run through to Christmas.
The films available include Serenity, Children of Men, Troy, Corpse
Bride, Swordfish, The Chronicles of Riddick, Hulk, The Fast and the Furious:
Tokyo Drift, Full Metal Jacket, Black Rain, The Prestige, Dreamgirls and
World Trade Centre.
