I wonder if they're planning on having Jam as a stand-alone release as well.

This is GREAT news! I loved NBA Jam from the classic days, and we get 2 VERY GOOD looking titles for 60 bucks? Jam is retailing for $40. Awesome! Yet another PS3 game im looking forward to this fall. Already have it pre-ordered

I believe in the article they mentioned that the version that will be bundled has less modes to play with. I'd say it would be safe to assume that there would be a fully featured release later on.

I had said before NBA Elite needs to be less than $60, I guess I was right.

This is the right way to go, you will significantly increase exposure to your game and hopefully increase sales at the same time.
