White sensor sure would be nice with an older 360.

 

[Man]

The game looks horrible but that's an awesomely geeky console skin.

 

[EteRnal PAL]

DO WANT.

 

[Infamous Chris]

Blue LED lights!

 

[thegreatchamp]

Jizz in my pants. All I need now is a Ewok themed headset

 

[Neuromancer]

I want to hate it, but I can't.

 

[GarthVaderUK]

Oh my!

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

So at $450 US dollars, you save nothing on the HW and software, you're really just lining up for the Lucasfilm fanservice.

Guess that squashes rumors of the 360 price drop this year, christ.

 

[Yopis]

Nice might jump on this

 

[BenjaminBirdie]

That.

Holy shit.

THAT IS THE FUCKING BEST.

 

[ymmv]

Looks awful. Ugh.

[The Lamonster]

Want so hard. But I don't need 3 Xbox 360s.

 

[Infamous Chris]

Looks awful. Ugh.

You must not like Star Wars.

 

[Woorloog]

Golden controller... wow. Too bad i already have 360S, 5 controllers, no space to play Kinect games nor any interest to play them (until we get some RTS).
Would like a golden controller though...

 

[sk3tch]

I just want the controller...that is so awesome. I wish they would sell it separately.

 

[Vyrance]

I appreciate the effort, but that just does not look good.

 

[Dipswitch]

Looks neat. Just not 450 clams neat.

 

[Marleyman]

3 threads already?

 

[French]

Worse than the 360 Halo, wow.

 

[szaromir]

My most anticipated game gets a hardware bundle? Can't wait for both.

 

[Muchi Muchi Pink]

I want to buy.

 

[Sho_Nuff82]

I just want the controller...that is so awesome. I wish they would sell it separately.

They will probably go on ebay for >$100 this Christmas.

 

[Neuromancer]

From one of the duplicate threads:

 

[Crisis]

One of the best custom consoles this generation.

 

[Prine]

Blue LED looks hot, i think i'll grab this.

 

[GarthVaderUK]

Power on and Tray eject

Awesome!

 

[Psychotext]

I quite like that. Cool.

 

[EteRnal PAL]

Just preordered on Amazon.

 

[dragonlife]

My sister and brother would love this...

Power on and Tray eject

Wow, really?

 

[Rad-]

I usually hate colors like that but this actually looks great.

 

[Radec]

Will this 360 be available without the Kinect and Star Wars Game ?

 

[ShogunX]

Power on and Tray eject

Awesome!

Ok that's pretty fucking awesome.

 

[GarthVaderUK]

Wow, really?

Yup, those are from Major Nelson's blog!

 

[Gowans]

Power on and Tray eject

Awesome!

Man that makes it, my mate is going to have to have this.

 

[soundscream]

Power on and Tray eject

 

[Snuggles]

Holy crap, that's awesome.

Not worth the price of admission for me, but it definitely appeals to my inner Star Wars nerd.

 

[MatthewB92]

Not a big star wars fan but I still want that!

 

[Takeda Kenshi]

Dat 360 controller. Daaamn.

So tempted, but I must resist.

 

[Cousteau]

C-3PO gives not a fuck.

 

[woodypop]

I appreciate the effort, but that just does not look good.

Pretty much how I feel, but I still kinda like it.


Because of the Slim 360 shape, reminds me of:

 

[The Elite]

Is Star Wars still relevant?

There would have been a time when this would have gotten my wood up, but not anymore. There are a lot of other franchises I'd rather see have their own limited edition console before Star Wars.

Either way, console looks ugly but that controller is hot.

 

[SuperSonic1305]

My most anticipated game gets a hardware bundle? Can't wait for both.

wat

 

[2th]

The game looks horrible but that's an awesomely geeky console skin.

i know. i want but i am getting the gears 3 console in September already

 

[TheOddOne]

Dat gold.

 

[soundscream]

OMG

 

[krypt0nian]

Not at that price. It's time for a price drop.

 

[vaelic]

sooooooooo ugly

 

[AbsoluteZero]

Neat. If hadn't bought the Reach 360 back in April I would have probably sprang for this.
