Halo 4 Limited Edition Console Made Official
Written Monday, July 16, 2012 By Richard Walker
View author's profile

We pretty much knew all about this anyway, having reported on the Halo 4 Limited Edition console last week after it was leaked, but over the weekend during Comic-Con, Microsoft has made it all official anyway and released some nice images of the forthcoming bundle.

So here once again for your viewing pleasure, is the Halo 4 320GB Limited Edition console presented with full-sized pictures showing the packaging straight-on, the package at an angle, a close-up of the Halo 4 controller and a closer look at the bundle in its entirety. Ooooooh.

In the box you'll get the custom Halo 4 320GB Limited Edition console, two Halo 4 controllers, a Halo 4 headset and a standard copy of the Halo 4 game for £269.99. It all looks lovely, and it'll be yours to own when Halo 4 launches on November 6th, 2012.

The limited edition console should come bundled with the limited edition of the halo 4 game as well to make it a whole package

Really should include a Legendary Edition copy of the game. Anyone who is a big enough Halo fan to actually buy this console would clearly want the biggest / best version of Halo 4, not a standard copy.

I understand that fan boys are going to go nuts for this, but come on. This is now the 11th different bundle of the slim console, if you didn't buy the gears, cod, or star wars bundle, for the most part why this one?

I'm a huge Halo fan, but I'll pass on this. The 320G is impressive but the color scheme looks too abstract, and with the next ten console being released in two years, I don't see the point in purchasing this. I will however try to get my hands on one of those controllers!

Many moons ago, I bought the Halo 3 xbox, Spartan Green with copper colored trim. Since then, the controller has rotted, the mic wire has torn almost in half, and the console itself with a mere 20gb hard drive was sent for repair three times.
I still own it and play it to date.

@20 Because some of us are still using our original elites, and they are starting to act up. I liked the Gears console, but didn't NEED it at the time. Now, with my original Elite acting up (and the 120GB HD filling up), this may be timed perfectly so that when I do pick up a new console, I might as well splurge and get this.

Plus collector's LOVE to buy these and put them in a closet for years. I would if I had more money :P

I have the halo 3 console, the gears console and the mw3 console, all still boxed up and sealed. So will probably get this and just leave it aside like the rest.

The blue lights and the seethrough plastic are a new addition but otherwise the paint and all look really messed up. Then what's with the boring microphone and a standard copy of Halo 4? Bad fan service mind you.

It's a pretty one... I mean, I'm staring at my R2D2, so I won't get one, but someone might.

Microsoft kind of needs to slow down on these limited edition consoles though... off the top of my head, Halo Reach, Gears 3, Star Wars, Modern Warfare 3, and Final Fantasy XIII, not to mention the countless variants of 4GB or 250GB with and without Kinect. These things cannot be tremendously cheap to make, yet Microsoft is still pumping them out as frequently as Nickelback pumps out shitty music.

My Elite is starting to die. It barely reads discs anymore. If compressed air doesn't fix it.. I will either get this or find a used 360. The next gen of consoles will be here shortly anyway.

I don't see the point in including a headset. Most people already have a wireless mic(with a wired for backup) or turtle beaches. The controllers do look cooler than the green ones that came out with the Reach Elite years ago.

Can you pre order it like a game? Like put money down on it and pay it off over time?? If so then im getting this :D... Its actually a good deal because it would be well over $400 for the console and controllers alone but you get the game and a mic so its a buy for me

Not a bad looking console, but I'll stick with my original, ancient, white 360, it's still going strong. *knocks on wood*

@36
It's $399.99 in U.S. dollars.

The last Halo-themed console I bought was the original Xbox (I still have it, too)!

There's always been "something" about each Halo 360 console I didn't like. The first one: 20 GB HD - REALLY??? The second one: Silver?! This one: Okay... I like that it's transparent. Why not skin-it to look like Cortana, instead of this art-deco look?

If I didn't have the Star Wars 360 bundle (and it never existed), I would probably get this Halo 4 console... but I really wanted a Star Wars-themed console ever since the original Halo Xbox was made (a KOTOR-themed console would have been sweet). Now that I have a Star Wars console (and a Kinect sensor... since it was part of the package, even though it wasn't a selling point for me)... I don't foresee getting a new console until the next gen unit releases.

I love custom-consoles... and if you need a new one, this is a great opportunity to get one! I'll upgrade my HD, if one bigger than the 320 GB is released, but as for anymore "360" consoles... I'm good for now!!! :-)

The console looks awesome however I am a little disappointed with the fact that the bundle will only include the standard game instead of the limited edition. I don't know if I should put my $400 on the bundle or use only $100 for the limited edition while I can use the leftover money for the next gen xbox console. Perhaps I should buy both and sell the standard Halo 4 on Ebay so I could have all the goodies a hardcore Halo fan should have.

Probly get shafted again in germany and holland again just as we never had any of those MW3 consoles or the Gears of War 3 consoles, No gamestore were selling them, so i don,t get microsofts plans behind these why selling them in different countries and not in others, and as some already mentioned with a new console only a year or so away i woudn,t waste money on it, unless your a huge fan and collector.
