They just can sell the plastic skin, and the controlers alone. It will be the best choice !


I wish they would ! we've all spent enough on the consoles already, to risk buying a Halo360 and then end up with the Red Ring of Death would make me cry !

"They should just build a spartan shaped 360 that is 3 feet tall, and the disc drive is in his stomach. you have to poke his belly to open the disc drive.
And it should have a terabyte hard drive ftw"

lol "Poke!"........ Giggle giggle

ok but really this thing looks like butt to me. Its like an inside out can of split pea soup.... Gross.

i agree, it should be 120GB

  • 07.15.2007 2:45 PM PDT

With all due respect, that is the ugliest thing I've ever seen. Something black/grey like the zune would have been way better.

It looks sweet but I know I wont be getting it.
I've already got my 360.


Well according to my friend some stores will let u trade in your xbox and buy this one and pay the difference, then u transfer everything on your old xbox with a memory card.

But i also wanted to know if i could just get a "skin" of this xbox that i could put on my old 360? (one that pops on like the faceplates they sell)

while the console itself looks badass..it's just frustrating that microsoft is milking the console and offering exclusive content on it, sort of like content for first time 360 owners & stuff..why couldn't have have offered the content on marketplace & just made a skin for the 360? come ON! we're smarter than that...

I think it is a really awesome design. I would just like to know the details of obtaining one. If you will be able to reserve it. Then we will have a flock of us fanboys rolling to gamestop in no time.

And you can all stop whining about the hard drive since you can only have 100 films and 50 screenshots to keep the Bungie community from exploding with noobs recording their first kill and sending it to every poor sucker who opens his messages.

I'm looking forward to september when this unit will be available. I've had a copy of Legendary edition reserved since last year and I still have yet to purchase a 360 so I'm glad I held off.

I saw somebody comment and it's a good idea for them to make more controllers in the H3 style so as to have a complete set.

Great job bungie on having another great idea and then letting us flap in the wind on how to get our hands on one.

P.S. El Panel0n is a moron

thats true why is it still a 20gb? btw it sounds awesome!


Hasn't microsoft learned that 20gb isnt enough???? I'd even be greatful for 60gbs!!

  • 07.16.2007 8:23 AM PDT

I like Call of Duty and Gears of War, AND Halo. Why must everyone else like only one or the other?

why couldn't have have offered the content on marketplace & just made a skin for the 360?

Halo 3 Special Edition Gamer Pics and Theme (exclusive download via XBL)


Now, I know it says exclusive download but if the Theme and Gamer Pics are for the Halo3 Xbox360 only why make those who buy it have to go and download it off Xbox Live? Why not have it as one of the preloaded themes and gamer pics? Maybe the Halo3 360 comes with a code to let those who bought that version of the 360 download one of the Halo3 themes for free while the rest of us have to pay with microsoft points. Just a thought. Anyway about the console itself, I personally think it looks pretty bad. I think I'll stick with my black 360 Elite with 120 GB HDD.

Man WoW this 360 is sweet. No anger pointed at bungie thats a sweet halo 360. C'mon Microsoft first no HDMI, only 20 gig HD, Now this halo 360 and theres the elite and game stop doesnt offer crap towards trade in.

yes, yes, yes, all sweet and cool. but what about us loyal microsoft, and bungie gamers who went out the first day the 360 was out and dropped 400 dollars on an assumption that this console was the most badass.(granted it was)but un-benounced to us that our sweet system would soon be out classed by a knight in not so shiney armor called a 360 elite. which came out later for all the slackers who didnt have any faith in microsoft, what the hell is this! now the true followers have been out classed by those too un-faithful to know that this system is the best! plus, to add insult to injury a new, and yet again bigger, better 360 is born for the retarted few, who by this point are selling their used 600 dollar foot rest(ps3 for those of you too stupid to get the metaphor) and getting a better system than all of us. for shame! for shame. it is a dark day when the loyal follower has been shat on and ushered aside in exchange for a sony fanboy who reluctantly turned in his ps3 console and got a superior system made by microsoft and the xbox team.

how much extra will this cost im going to pay more money for something that is the same thing as what i have just a green paint with halo 3 on it. Or at least come out witha kit to take apart your 360 and have a all around faceplate kind of thing. Same with the awesome hard drive.

"Live Free or Die, Death is not the Worst of Evils"
-John Stark-

I want this, but I refuse to buy it if does not have the new 65nm chips. I hope this isn't Microsoft's new strategy to dump off the rest of it's stock of defective components like the elite was. Everyone in the know should be waiting for revised systems. I can only hope that this model will be the introduction of that revised smaller chip system, and the included HDMI gives me that hope, because I think that all the new systems will eventually ship with this.

"Insert Generic Witty Comment Here"

Have we heard any official reason why this doesn't come with the 120 hard drive? Or at least the option to get it either way.
