Here are the .WAV files of what they what they sound like: power on/off  and disk tray eject.
A one month Xbox LIVE Gold subscription to Xbox LIVE is included, as well as exclusive avatar items that show your Xbox LIVE friends you’re one of the lucky ones to own this coveted console.

The console will launch on November 8, 2011 in the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, and EMEA for $399 (U.S. ERP), and you can pre-order today at participating retailers.

    Will the controller and headset actually be available in other parts of the world, other than America? I wanted the Reach controller badly, never saw it in Belgium. I want(ed) the GOW3 controller, isn’t available in Belgium. So I hope that the tie-in controller for a international blockbuster-record-breaking game will be available here.

    Puke, not only does MW suck, but this console is nothing new, just another console with a different paint job. Nothing unique at all, the exact same package as the GoW3 console. For $400+ give us the damn headset, or the Kinect sensor, something, jesus… I wish they didn’t even include the game in these packages, who the hell wants the ‘Limited Edition’ console with the standard game included? Better yet, toss in the limited edition game instead of the standard. Might make it worth $500 after tax.

    First of all, if someone says MW sucks, it just means they suck at it. Second of all, this bundle is a good deal. You get a 70 GB expansion, extra controller, a copy of the game, and all of the custom graphics for only $100 extra. Go play Battlefield.

    I think MW is a bad game and I go upwards of 30-4 on a good day. Assuming someone sucks at a game for their opinion makes you look dumb. I think the console looks pretty sick, I’m just not interested in COD anymore due to the “one man army” aspect.

    Also: I will go play Battlefield, at least that provides a daily challenge for me.

    i think it could look better, but all the extras for just $100 makes it worthwhile

  • http://www.facebook.com/people/Andrew-Wagner/100000432997881 Andrew Wagner

    i know that you mean i agree with you i think for the money they want. they could  give us the limited edition of the game and include the headset i mean damn so if you want the whole set you gotta sell out 600$  i mean fuck you would be spending  600$$$ on the **** thing  

    But i like CALL OF DUTY if they would fix the server issues like you know dedicated servers that would make the game more of a competition for Battlefield and GOW
    i mean they make 1 billion on a game and we gotta share are own connection to play the game witch is bull crap when they make that kinda cash off a game they should have to give you dedicated servers

    companies like this around and they wonder why the economy’s f**ked up lol

    “Exclusive avatar items”… yeah I’m sure they’ll be just as “exclusive” as the “exclusive” avatar items with the FFXIII 360 bundle that ended up being put on the Avatar Marketplace a couple months later once they realized how much more they could get for them. Microsoft doesn’t seem to understand the meaning of the word “exclusive” any more with as much as they misuse and abuse it these days.

    Lame as usual.  If you guys put as much effort to making it seem like CoD is exclusive to the xbox you guys would have a stellar library of games instead of the same 4 game cycle you have had since Halo 3 came out….

    CoD is one of the problems on why Microsoft has grown weak/pathetic/stagnant as a game company….they don’t even try to make games any more….Halo, gears, forza, fable and pretending CoD is exclusive……it’s their cycle and you know it….

    I honestly hope the ps3 far surpasses the 360 in sales so Microsoft can get a kick in the butt and become a gaming company again…

    Major Nelson please help
    I am trying to find someone to help me but I am getting nowhere, I am hopeful that you can help.  My 13 year old son woke up this morning to find that his XBox console was banned for violating the terms of use.  He has not knowingly done anything to violate the terms and he certainly hasn’t modified anything. No one will tell me exactly what it is that my son has done wrong, in fact the 3rd person I spoke to at your support number, Ken 1161167631, told me that there was no one that would help me and that there was no contact name or number for the “enforcement team” to try and find out why his console was banned. My son saved for 2 years to buy his X Box, we stood outside of Toys R Us for nearly 3 hours in the freezing cold last Black Friday so he could finally get the one thing he had been saving for, he felt like a criminal this morning being told he was banned and had violated the terms of use, he has no idea what he has done.  If he has inadvertantly violated the terms of use, he and us, as his parents, will take full responsibility for that, we just want to know what it is he has done. It is only fair that if my 13 year old son is going to be held accountable for his ‘alleged violation’ then Microsoft should be too by telling him what he did wrong. A 13 year old boy has been charged and sentenced with no explanation as to why, he has no choice but to accept that his hard saved money has just been thrown out the window by Microsoft for reasons unknown, there is nothing right about that.Kind Regards,Lorraine

    If they mean timed exclusive, then they should say timed exclusive. There’s a big difference.

  • Logic Squirrel

    I agree the past year MS has gotten lazy and i really hate to say it but pathetic with regards to gaming, their e3 was lame and clearly beaten by the ps3 (i have never said that before).

    It is a shame seems like they are not bothering with things anymore, I have been playing a lot more on my ps3 lately but will keep an eye out to see what the 360 has to offer in the future.

    Come on MS pull it together we are not interested in a thousand different styles of 360 just the gaming.

    Ya man. I’ve never owned a Sony console before until this gen.  The last 2 years have just been horrible in regards to first party support from Microsoft.  They are milking the hell out of halo (does not mean the quality is bad).  When Halo 4 comes out next holiday season that will be 5 halo games in 3 years….last gen we saw 2 halo games in 5 years . 

    It’s just really bad for the industry the way Microsoft is doing things right now.  They are focused on the money, which I understand they are a business, but gaming wise, it’s just bad. 

    It sucks too because they actually have the rights to a lot of awesome IP’s, but they aren’t willing to sacrifice high sales for a few million core gamers. 

    Basically they have become Nintendo, but backwards lol.  Nintendo had awesome first party support, bad 3rd party support.  Microsoft has bad first party support and awesome 3rd party support. 

    It will end the same though I hope.  Nintendo realized they shouldn’t of turned their backs on their real gamer audience.  Hopefully Microsoft  will realize the same….but they have some delusional people working for them.  Carl Lewis their vp in europe thinks it’s hard to cater to core gamers….it’s like, it’s not.  All you have to do is make games lol that actually have some depth to them.

    Am I safe with my current preorder or what? Thanks in advance, Major! :D

    I’ll probably just get the MW3 Headset along with the GoW3 Controller….Cuz my current controller is failing me since I can even barely walk, so since GoW3 controller comes out first, I’ll get that cuz the controller is my first priority. Then I’ll be getting tht headset cuz….well….my current headset is effed up.
