Today at Comic Con in San Diego, we announced the Xbox 360 Limited Edition Halo: Reach bundle which will be available September 14th when Halo: Reach launches. Designed by Bungie, the Xbox 360 Limited Edition Halo: Reach Bundle includes all the features of the newly designed Xbox 360 console, such as a 250 GB Hard Drive and the fastest built-in Wi-fi. Additionally, you’ll receive two Limited Edition Wireless Controllers and a standard edition copy of Halo:Reach. The bundle will be available for US $399 in limited quantities and only while supplies last.

Official Press Release
Bungie unboxes the console for you
Edit: The bundle is now available for pre-order along with the special edition controller and wireless headset
Man if only came with special edition...but i would rather have limited edition and my old 360...not enough money for them both.
Wow 399.99 USD so Slim 250 GB is 299.99 retail value of game 69.99 and controller is 49.99 so you're saving 10 or 20 USD not much for savings lol.
This gives me an excuse to give my kids my "old" 360. DADDY NEEDS A SILVER CONSOLE!
Wow! I seriously was just getting ready to go out and buy the regular 360-S this evening! I've literally JUST changed my mind! I'll hold out for this one instead! What a beautiful console! Having owned the green Halo 2 Original Xbox, I've convinced myself to get this baby as a tribute! Not much of a Halo fan, but I do play, and you're actually getting a bit of a savings by buying this package. Wait what?? It features alo sound effects???!!? Can this be preordered at Gametop yet? If so I'm going do that TONITE! Awesomeness!
From the Press Release"
"The Xbox 360 Limited Edition “Halo: Reach” Bundle features an exclusive silver design and comes with two custom Xbox 360 Wireless Controllers with artwork inspired by the game, a Standard Edition copy of “Halo: Reach,” a token for the Limited Edition Elite armor set, an episode of “Halo Legends” and a “Halo: Reach”-themed Xbox 360 wired headset. As an added touch, the specially designed console in the Xbox 360 Limited Edition “Halo: Reach” Bundle not only captures the look and feel of the game, but also features custom sound effects from the “Halo” universe."
Impressive!!
This as a Kinect bundle for $500 and I'm sold.
Holy crap. I was thinking about waiting for a good Kinect bundle, but I think I will be getting this console instead!
I'm guessing the console itself is the same as the New Xbox 360 released at E3? (AKA the Kinect console?)
Best looking LE I've seen of Xbox 360 so far, the Halo 3 LE was ugly.
excellent!,, waiting here in chile Kinect
I was itching for a regular S-system but was hoping for a Reach edition. Only issue now is saving up over $500 to buy this and Legendary.
I'll be coppin this
Any chance of some nice hi-res wallpapers of this beauty?
god that console is sexy....congrats to the people who was hoping to buy a slim but haven't yet for whatever reason
Nice. Sadly another vertical motif on the front, but I wouldn't kick it out of bed for leaving crumbs.
Everyone who has had problems and had to send their elites back more that 4 x should get one of these free for sticking with Microsoft.
Whatever the next big system microsoft comes out with I'm waiting 2 years before I buy it. Who can afforad a new 360 system every six months when they change something or add something new or themed. You would have to have a few million in the bank to keep up with all the new and different systems they come out with each and every year, and really who would want to spend all the extra money on a themed system just to have it break down, stop working and you send it in and get a referb system that isn't yours and isn't the theme one you spent all the extra money on. Yes we all know the video game industry is huge and Microsoft is making huge bank may I please have some of my money back. Thanks a Million.
Eh the silver motif is ok and everything, but not nice enough to make it worth replacing the sexiness of my FFXIII 360.
So far I can only find the pricing in Dollars and on the US Amazon instead of say, the UK version. So is this for America alone or is Europe getting in on this too?
My current Xbox is way better, it's 1.5 years old and still works and has a sexy Street Figther 4 motif with 250GB External HDD. I like it way more than that Halo thing.
Congrats Bungie and MS. You finally have a good looking Halo console (I didn't like the others). Those controllers look ... divine.
Alrighty. Looks like I'll be getting this. Been saving up for a Slim but I'll hold out for this since it is around my birthday and I will justify the purchase as a well deserved gift to myself. On my fifth console right now, which I am waiting to receive from Microsoft... "Advance Exchange"... what's so "advance" about it. Going on 3 weeks now and no console or tracking number... awesome. But I can *** and moan all I want, I'm still going to stay loyal. At least the slim won't break down on me anytime soon. So congrats on keeping a customer and making a nice looking console.
and i was just planning on getting the black slim xbox .... hmmmm what now? troubles, troubles :)
I so want this.
I've already pre-ordered the Legendary Edition - watching the unboxing video made me glad I did; that Noble Team statue is awesome! :)
I may have to grab one of these - It just looks too good.
Only problem is, what to do with my current Super Elite? Resale value is far too low now that the Slim is out...
Decisions Decisions :)
To everyone in the UK.

GAME have this available for pre-order for £250!
That works out cheaper than the American price!
£250 GBP = $384.57 USD :D
I also get £12.50 worth of reward card points & £3.75 Quidco :D
I have just pre-ordered as it's a pretty good price imo. Will pay £250 if the price goes up, & will cancel if it's much cheaper elsewhere/change my mind.
I have 6 weeks to save up :P
