I don't think that the original game/guitar bundle with the Special II is available any longer. There is still a Pro-1 (Les Paul Junior) bundle that comes with Rocksmith. It's an OK price but be aware that the "accessories" are subpar and not as much of a value add as they'd like you to think. That said, it's only about the price of the game combined with an Epiphone Player Pack.

The Epiphone Pro-1 is an acceptable beginner guitar. However, if you were willing to spend, say, twice as much on the guitar itself ($299) there are better offerings at that price point (Epi LP 100, Squier Vintage Modified Stratocaster, Ibanez RG421, Jackson JS32 series, Gretsch Electromatic Jet).

That said, if you just want everything to get started without having to worry about it, there's nothing wrong with starter packs. Just know that the included accessories are usually pretty chintzy, and you'll want to upgrade eventually. But you probably looking at another hundred or so above the packs above to create a pretty solid a la carte beginner setup. For Example:

  • Fender Vintage Modified Stratocaster ($299) or Epi 100 ($240)
  • Fender Standard Gig Bag ($29)
  • Ernie Ball Polypro strap ($6.99)
  • Fender Medium picks ($4.99)
  • Rocksmith w/cable ($40.00)

    Strat: $379.98 Epiphone Les Paul 100: $320.00

    I would actually skip an amp, as you can use Rocksmith as an amp, and the starter pack amps aren't something you're going to get any significant use out of if you grow as a player. They're basically toys. I'd just see if you like playing for now and invest in a better amp later.
