Halo 4 Limited Edition Xbox 360 console bundle announced (399)
- Thread starter CrunchinJelly
- Start date
Also wifi and the other improvements made to the S. Price cut will come when Durango is announced most likely.
Agreed though, it is expensive.
It doesn't retroactively erase the lower priced SKU's.

Buying this before playing the game would be like getting a tattoo of a girl's name before your first date.
I personally like the look.
I don't know why you would complain about the price of what is essentially a CE console. And besides, you can always wait until after the holidays and buy it for probably cheaper than a normal system when they go on clearance (at least you could here for the other Halo editions).

That's pretty much how I feel. Though you expressed it more tactfully than me, heh.

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.
I'd need to see larger pics to decide whether I liked it or not. It looks okay, but if it literally says HALO 4 anywhere on it that will change completely. Designs on these LE consoles are fine, I just hate when they emblazon the name of the game on them. So tacky.

How is any iteration of the 360, special edition or not, still $400 seven years after release? This doesn't even include a Kinect, right?
], and a wireless headset! Very temping. I do prefer the look of the Reach one though but I don't really care. rarely even look at my consoles anyway.

You have no one to blame but yourself.
They really need to go back to doing them like this:
That, is a sexy console.
It looks nice in pictures but have you seen it in person? It's absolutely atrocious looking. The color scheme is terrible.
Sad that the Halo 4 one isn't very good and is $399. I was hoping for a cheaper 360 for this holiday season so I could play Halo 4.

It's on par with tacky console decals you can buy for 25$. Not a very big fan.
Unfair comparison. If those decals have 1/5th the power of the shirt it is the best upgrade you could give your 360.
it is in fact translucent. You can't see it in these pics.
This changes a lot.

Oh wow. Haven't seen glorious translucent consoles in quite a while. This is great.

I can see those controllers going for $100 each on EBAY...
Anyways, i thought they would've waited until the Wiiu's price was announced and then matched that price with this bundle.

Reminds me of those generic "graphic" tees you can get at most clothing stores :/

Looks kinda ugly to me.
I'll be fine with my Star Wars 360:
Not much of a star wars fan but I love this, clean, well thought out and the controller being based on a second character makes it sort of cute.

I bought the Reach one and I think it looks way better than this one.
What an abomination. I guess it's OK for a teenager's bedroom but anybody putting that in their living room needs to have a word with themselves.

Its an okay looking paint job, but 400 bucks for a 360 in 2012 is asking way too much.

I think it's safe to say their cooling down on trying to force traditional gamers to play the Kinect.
It helps sales.
This has to be one of the most ugly consoles Microsoft has ever produced. So busy, so garish, so thoughtless and tacky. I was utterly beside myself reading the first ten replies that were like "DAYYYYUM, that's some hot shit right there! Pre-ordered today!"
This system is roughly the equivalent of one of those collared, silk button-up shirts that has a gigantic wraparound print of Goku shooting a fireball. Which I guess explains its appeal to a small, but enthusiastic and tasteless niche of the community here.

I might just get this. I hate the look, but I can stand it. My Xbox 360 is still the OG one from the console's launch, and I can tell it's very close to going bad. I've been looking to update to Slim, in fact, so I guess this is kind of perfect... Wish it had Kinect thrown in, was the Limited Edition of the game, and was about $100 cheaper... but whatever, I guess. I'll just take what I can get. A new console is a new console.
Wonder if it will have any other goodies than the mostly-online ones. I'm kind of puzzled that the real life in-game swag fad has worn off. I've got all of these nifty little statues - Noble Team, Marcus Fenix, a Facehugger, etc - but now all of the games I pre-order are suddenly only giving me digital goodies, usually skins.
I hope to god that this isn't the final 360 bundle, all said. I would like a few more goodies and a discounted price perhaps. I'm not sold at all on this yet.
EDIT: Also awaiting bigger pictures. And from multiple angles. I guess I hold out a morbid measure of hope that this is just a poorly taken angle/shot...

Urggh. What the hell were they thinking? That is really very ugly indeed.
Oddly the only nice special edition of the Xbox 360s was the UK Union Jack one. And that was only okay because the flag was a decal, so you could leave it off and get a nice plain white slim Xbox that went with existing accessories.
