This week's edition of MCV reveals that there are two new bundles coming the way of Xbox 360 fans, and these will reportedly involve Star Trek and Transformers 2.

For those who simply can't go through a game without showin' some Trophy (or Achievement) lovin', Infinity Ward has specified the badges you will be earning in Modern Warfare 2 (Xbox 360, PS3, and PC) to show off your prodigious skills (or that you have so much time on your hands).

Japan sure is lucky! They're getting both the PS3 and Xbox 360 bundles for Pro Evolution Soccer 2010 starting November, thanks to Konami. The bundles will reportedly cost JP¥ 38,000 (UK£265/ US$ 422.38). Bundle details after the jump.

Quite frankly, the track record of Ars Technica's mole astounds me. Remember that Xbox 360 Elite bundle rumor he spread out last week? It's just been confirmed by Microsoft along with another bundle for those in the market for an extra controller.

Ars Techinca's mole has one hell of a track record. For one, he (or she) correctly predicted the price cuts that the PS3 and Xbox 360 just got. Now the mole has some dirt on what Microsoft has planned for the holidays.

Whether you're a PS3, Xbox 360, or PC gamer, Mad Catz has you covered when it comes to Modern Warfare 2 (Xbox 360, PS3, and PC). The third-party peripheral maker has unveiled the new fancy controllers and accessories they have in store for the game. Images and text walls after the jump.

Wedbush Morgan analyst Michael Pachter has some pretty dire tidings for Nintendo. According to the analyst, the Wii's sales will continue to decline unless Nintendo gives a price cut the go signal. More estimates from Pachter after the jump.

It's been a busy - and good - week for Microsoft. Not only did they successfully implement the price drops, they've also successfully reaped in the benefits. Too early to say, yes, I know, but with a strong number of 43% up in sales (even if it's just for the Xbox 360 Elite), it's no wonder there's more bounce in their steps as of late. After all, they're not at the bottom of the pile when it comes to hardware sales, if you catch my drift. But hardware is not the only thing that went on this week, especially not when another gaming event is going on. So jump right in!

Dutch website Area Games is reporting that the Xbox 360 Elite will come with a "250GB" bundle with a price tag of € 279.95 (US$ 399.12). The "Super Elite" is said to come out in October 2009. More details.

True enough, Microsoft did announce the Xbox 360 price cuts for Japan, starting off with the Xbox 360 Elite. Starting on September 10, Japan will be selling the Elite model from ¥ 39,800 (US$ 431.42) to ¥ 29,800 (US$ 323.02). Again, this will not be carrying the HDMI cable any longer.
