Gears 3 Special Edition Console

For the past couple of years, Microsoft has made a tradition of correlating highly anticipated release titles with matching accessories to boost hype and sales.  This became particularly common with the Halo series - as controllers, headsets, other accessories, and even consoles themselves would don a plethora of designs and illustrations taken from the game's universe.


This was also seen with the Call of Duty series, and is becoming universal with today's more action-packed shooters.

Microsoft recently announced  a special edition Gears of war 3 console and controller package.  The console itself features a 320 gB hard drive, and will be accompanied with 2 limited edition controllers.  Including a headset, and a copy of Gears of War 3, it will be available September 20 for $399! 

If you are happy with your console, then the controllers are available separately for $59 a piece.

Check out some awesome Gears 3 gameplay!

    That looks HOT. Gears is trying pretty hard, and I must commend them for that. Didn't know it had such a huge following.

    I hate limited edition consoles and I hate Gears of War, but this looks sweet! Also, I like the 320 gigs

    The console looks as good as the game. Also excited for Halo 4 now.

    That is one ugly looking console, I guess I just prefer a simpler colour palette
