' A few questions regarding the 360’s wireless/rechargeable peripherals came up a few days ago, and it seemed like a good idea to ask Major Nelson (Xbox Live Director of Programming) himself for the [un]official lowdown. '
Here’s the gist of what he had to say:
1. In the $399.99 Xbox 360 package (and not the $299.99 Core one), you’ll get a wireless controller AND 2 batteries (AA) to run the controller with.
2. The $19.99 Play and Charge Kit will come with the cable AND a rechargeable battery pack.
3. The $11.99 Rechargeable Battery Pack won’t come with anything else, so you’ll need the cable from the Play and Charge Kit to recharge it.
