Before I came into this thread, I knew someone would eventually make a joke about a RED 360- the TC got there first :P I'm guessing this is just for NA?

Red 360? That will blend in when someone turns on their 360 one day. And then instead of the RROD, it would be the IROD to them... Invisible ring of death.

Personally I like that glossy black 360 they gave away for GTAIV. That one was pretty cool.

I would like to see other bundles, despite this being quite good.

On a side note, I want capcom to make something original someday, because I am begining to suspect that capcom will milk the franchise till it becomes a sonic counterpart.

finally microsoft found the solution to the RROD (joking of course) in a serious note, might be a good deal for those who do not own a 360 and want one

Games that were known as Playstation games are going to be known as Xbox games to the public. GTA selling better on the 360 and getting the great DLC content for example. Now RE5 360 consoles. If I did not have a 360 already I would have picked this up.

Umm just no. They will either be known as just games or PS3/360 games. Unless the public goes blind and can only somehow see 360 boxes in gamestores all over the world. Anywho on topic seems like a nice bundle. I really dont want a red system. Now blue thats a different story.

First off, I can't believe how quick people got out the red ring jokes. Lol. Secondly, thats thing is pretty ugly. I was so excited to see something epic looking and I get this, how does red relate to resident evil anyways.

I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure the 360 in the link was nothing but a mock-up made by arstechnica. not the final product.

If it anything similiar, its pretty pathetic. I say go with a black with crimson red trimmings and a bioharzard tag slapped on somewhere. That would be more fitting for a RE5 console.

Agreed. Although I think that stuff looks fake, I think a blood spattered 360 would look miles better than that fugly thing.

That sounds like a great deal.

However, red? honestly?

They could have picked much better colors than red.
