To celebrate the 25th anniversary of Xbox this year, Microsoft has launched a "25 Years of Xbox" digital game bundle. It includes 25 games for $570. That works out to about $23/game, but it's more nuanced than that, as some of the games are bundles themselves. For example, one of the games in the bundle, Halo: The Master Chief Collection, includes Halo 1, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST, Halo: Reach, and Halo 4.
