Microsoft is putting forth its best effort in the hope that Japanese consumers who want to play Lost Planet 2 won't just buy it on the PlayStation 3 systems they already have. The company has announced a Lost Planet 2 Xbox 360 bundle, coming out in Japan May 20 at a price of 24,800 yen ($265).

The set includes a 60GB Xbox 360 with a D-connector HD cable, the game, and a headset. It'll also include bonus Lost Planet content -- on a 2GB USB stick, taking advantage of the new Dashboard update that allows such drives to be used as 360 storage devices! That's certain to become a standard for special-edition Xbox 360 bundles!
