We all heard about Microsoft slashing the prices of the console a bit more for Europe this week, as well as the newly announced Holiday Value Bundles, but it looks like that’s not all that’s happening in the Xbox 360 camp. Word has trickled down from Shizzle Games in Belgium that the Xbox 360 systems are undergoing a name change as well, with the Core system being renamed the Xbox 360 Arcade, the Premium system changing into the Pro and the Xbox 360 Elite being, well, the Elite. Well, it’s new, what did you expect?

But the name’s change isn’t all that is happening. What will make most people who bought the Core system a couple of days back is that the console is also bundling along a 256 MB Memory Card, as well as five Xbox LIVE Arcade games, along with an HDMI port as well. All for cheaper than you got the console for last week, which is now at the same price point as the Wii, incidentally. Feels nice, doesn’t it? We will be contacting Microsoft India for comments on if and when the newly re-branded consoles will be available here and let you know as soon as we hear from them. In the meantime, have fun counting down the few million seconds that are left for BioShock to release here.
