Once rumored, Microsoft today confirmed plans to release an Xbox 360 Elite bundle with Fable II and Halo 3 as pack-ins. These are two titles that need no introduction and are considered among the best of efforts on 360.

Priced at $399, the “Game Of The Year” bundle as Microsoft calls it will be sold for a limited time only. Look for it to hit stores shelves in May. That’s the same price of the current 360 Elite package, which means the games are included free of charge, basically. A free Netflix trial voucher is included as well. Not a bad deal if you have been borderline set on picking up an Elite.
