Halo Edition 360 $400 with 20GB HDD |
The Halo 3 Limited Edition Xbox 360 will sell for $400, Aaron Greenberg, group product manager for Xbox 360, told us earlier today.
The limited edition "spartan green" console, he expects, won't even
survive the holiday rush. It comes packed with a "spartan green"
wireless controller, "spartan green" headset, a play and charge kit and
a wimpy, wimpy wimpy 20GB harddrive. That's right, it may be "spartan
green" but this 360 is no elite. The special 360 will also include a
slew of special Halo themes and gamer pics, he said.
I asked him why the Halo edition console won't come with a Halo
edition copy of Halo 3, he said it was something they debated but
decided in the long run it didn't make sense. Microsoft believes people
would likely rather decide which version to buy on their own. I also
asked if there were any plans for a limited edition Madden 360, since
that is their targeted game for the price drop, and he said that
Microsoft doesn't think that a special edition console really fits the
Madden demographic. |
