GameStop lists $300 Dirt 3 RC Car bundle
Dirt 3? Try Dirt 3 ... hundred. GameStop is listing an extravagant bundle for the PS3 and Xbox 360 versions of Codemasters rally racer that includes the game and a remote-controlled, 1/16 scale replica of the Ken Block Gymkhana Fiesta. The site offers the same May 24 release date as the normal, virtual-car-only version.
At $299.99, youd be unlikely to indulge the temptation to drive this RC car anywhere near actual dirt, but you could have some totally sweet races in your house between this and the Black Ops car. And we imagine you have plenty of floor space in your huge house for those races, if you can afford both of these bundles.
