I know what you're thinking - why the hell is Hot Topic selling video game consoles? It doesn't make any sense to me, and it doesn't seem to have made sense to many consumers either, as the trendy in a stupid sort of way retail chain is sitting on a large number of limited edition Halo 3 Xbox 360 consoles, and they're pricing them to move. $199 gets you the special Spartan Green number that completely failed to cause a stir at last year's E3. While it does only come with a 20GB hard disk, that's 20GB more than the comparably priced Arcade system, plus it comes with a play and charge kit and a headset.

It's an embarassing abomination. But I guess the 360 is ugly no matter what, so go for it.

How comes you got suspended?

I've seen so many topics on Arcade price cuts, how is this any different?

Yeah, it's hideous, if I'm gonna have a 360 sitting in my living room for years to come I think I'd pass on that and go for arcade, harddrive or no harddrive. Then again, maybe you could paint it yourself, not sure how difficult the case it to get off tho.

from what i remember from you, u like rpgs.

at 199 and with undiscovery, vesperia, and last remnant coming, I see that the only reason that is stoping you from buying a 360 is the taint that Sony has on yoour soul.

But if it's still on sale a year later... it was never that "limited" in the first place, lol.

Anyway, awesome news. If I didnt already have a 360, I'd buy one. Heck, if I even had the money, I would buy one. Sadly I dont.

I think it's pretty awesome.

Give it up, man... You'll never be remembered like you want to.

I can't say i'm much of a fan of the Halo 360 (I think it's ugly as hell) but it's cool that it's still around for anyone who wants it.

I still can't believe it didnt actually come with Halo 3. To me, it kind of defied the point of having it be the Halo 3 edition.

Sounds like a sweet deal to me. It doesn't look pretty, but it's not that bad. I definitely would rather have the white one.

I actually have a feeling that its just a bot that randomly clicks on topics and posts in them just to get the post count up.

I saw one of them at my Local Walmart for $126. I was like "WHOA that is cheap"

I thought it was a mistake, but nope it had the price tag and everything. Crazy
