Halo 4 bundle includes a ‘tricked-out’ Xbox 360

Let’s face it - the Xbox 360 has been selling like hotcakes. And I’m sure you have heard about a little game called Halo 4, which continues the franchise that helped launch the original Xbox. Well, if you have been thinking about getting either the console or game, you might want to hold off a bit longer. Microsoft “accidentally” leaked an upcoming Halo 4 console bundle, and this one’s got a lot of features.

Other than the expected features - the game, obviously, plus a specially-skinned console - the $399.99 bundle includes some nifty details, like blue LED lighting for the power indicators and custom sounds for boot-up and disc ejection. The console itself comes with a whopping 320 GB harddrive, which pretty much means you can install all the games. The two accompanying wireless gamepads, which are the new style with the transforming D-pad/circle-pads, have their own Halo-themed skin that reflects the graphics on the console. There’s even a black Xbox Live headset, so you can experience the joy of epithets screamed into your ear.

The console bundle was available for pre-order at Microsoft’s store for a short time, but has since been de-listed. With any luck, the bundle was properly announced at the San Diego Comic-Con this past weekend, but either way gamers will be able to buy the bundle after the game’s launch on November 6, 2012.
