Microsoft Launches Xbox Halo Bundle

Thanks to GameSpot for its article discussing Microsoft's announcement of a limited-edition Halo bundle for the Xbox. The article explains that "the company unveiled a 'limited-edition retail special' which bundles the the award-winning, Bungie-developed shooter Halo with a translucent green Xbox and S-controller for $169." Following the recent standalone Xbox price drop to $149, the green console is "the same color as the debug kit Xboxes used by Microsoft game testers and a limited-edition console issued in Europe last year", and the article also notes: "Microsoft is only releasing 200,000 of the boxed sets."

Although it's only 200,000 by M3wThr33 · 2004-04-02 22:10 · Score: 0, Troll

That's 200,000 more Xbox fans who now only have to make ONE purchase instead of TWO before stopping from buying everything else.
