No idea if it will work but ordered one anyway.

Yeah me too, someone's just made a cockup is my guess, but the 2 games when sold on ebay will give me a free pad which can't be bad.

[WildCards]

Bingo! registered and ordered thanks for the heads-up, although I doubt i'll receieve anything other than an apology letter.

[Lurker]

Woo Hoo!

Synopsis
Bundle Contents: An Xbox 360 console + 2 games + Wireless Controller.

If the console is included I will eat my hat, that's the misprint, checking the actual order confirmation you get it simply states Forza, Viva Pinata and a wireless controller.

If it does arrive then obviously i'll be delighted, but I honestly can't see it happening, especially as it's only the synopsis that's wrong, not the title or order confirmation.

Just ordered too, worth a go I guess.

Just take all the relevant screen prints etc.. It is a bit more than a misprint, it gives all the details of the console they say the bundle contains.

Hey, if the console doesn't come, tell Tescos you will ask Trading Standards for their thoughts on the matter

We have just ordered 4 in our office

[David Godfrey]

That link has now been pulled

ETA: started working again to have ordered

If you look arround there is significant confusion amongst the online resellers and consumers as to what this deal actually is!

Errors & omissions excluded. It's an obvious mistake.

Been trying to order one for the last 10 minutes and just keep getting an error message.

Woolworths have started cancelling orders of the same mistake and Tesco are apparently doing the same, people have been ringing up and told that they will all be cancelled.

Shame, and I was wearing my strawberry-flavour hat today.
