Watching in 2019 cause i love special edition consoles... Did anyone else realise he said this is the 3rd halo console they have made??? 4 they have made 4!
:o if you don't like Halo, sell the DLC codes in your copy of Halo4. Since they are exclusive to the bundle with the console you can get like 50$ for them, I think :)
I actually got the rare Xbox 360 halo 4 edition for Christmas as soon as it came out and it came with 2 controllers and only one works (I have 5 halo 4 controllers including the one that is dead) and it came with the actual game.
Yea, if you're thinking of buying it. I would do so immediately. Some Gamestops have stopped taking pre-orders, and their online website says it's no longer for sale. Try to get it on Amazon!
Love how they stopped adding in the HD cables when they introduced the new modeled Xbox. Was pretty disappointed, but thankfully I replaced it with the HD cable they included in the Xbox 360 Pro Bundle..Hoping to see that they'll end up adding them.
So the ram can be emptied and reloaded instantly so textures can be streamed from blu ray. Plus blu ray is a big thing it means textures are not nearly as compressed so the cpu does not need to uncompress that is why some multiplatform games take 14gBs while 360 take the full disc or in other words 8-9GBs because the textures on blu ray are not compressed which means the processing power can be used for making other parts of the game better.
Yeah but their including the headset and the game in the deal regardless. It's not about if your going to pick and choose what parts of the deal your going to use, its just adding every single item to see how much the gap is between the accessories and the the price
I heard the PS3 also comes with features like, Summer time black outs for 2 months. Continuous updates is another fun feature. And who could live without the lack of party chat.
Correction, The ps3 has 1 PPE 'core' and 7 SPE cores. The PPE is the main core and is used for the OS. 6 SPE are dedicated for gaming, the remaining is turned off. The 360 has 3 PPE cores. The difference between PPE and SPE is that the PPE can directly access memory, while the SPE has a given amount of space. so, the 360s 3 PPE cores have shared 512 MB of memory, while the ps3s main core also has the same, it's 7 remaining cores only get 256 KB each.
But blu way means more space for bigger games like a halo with way more multiplayer levels or less compressed game textures so the cpu can be used fo the game instead of uncompressing dvd which only holds 8GBs while blu ray holds 50Gbs.
Actually the 320 gb hard drive can be bought separately now. It also includes a copy of LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars. It costs 129.99 They have it at gamestop
I liked the Reach console more; it was more understated and the eject/power sounds were pretty cool. It's still nice for a limited edition but there's no way they should still be charging $400 for these when you consider the thing's been out 7 years, 320GB or not.
i preordered mine for $400 at gamestop then went to the midnight release and i found out price was reduced and i got like $52 back in cash was quite a nice surprise so i ended up buying assassins creed 3 that night too
it's less than $5 a month and it's optional. you can choose how long you want it or when to cancel. i'm not mad at all =) i don't know much about ps3 users, but don't you guys have something call psn plus? or something like that?
that's true, it does hold more, but then again... i never really bothered me to switch discs when i played final fantasy (4 discs) on the playstation so it doesn't really bother me now. but yes, it would be more of a convenience indeed!
i do agree with you that it's overprice, but as a halo fan myself, i'll make it an exception. it's a 7 year old system with a few tweaks here and there and microsoft should've dropped the price to at least $150 by now. to be honest, i wouldn't even bother picking up a slim just because the new console should be coming out in 1-2 years. but you're 100% right indeed.
Why are people saying the release of this console is too close to the 720's when the 720 hasn't even been announced yet? Yeah we all know its going to come out but Microsoft has always said the 360 will be a 10 year console. Am I missing something here?
I saw you get that awesome 343 armor and helmet only with this console edition. Its the armor with the horn but it sucks you have to spend 400 to get it
2:16 not everybody has an hdtv, or hd slot in their surround sound. Lots of people just buy whatever cause it look cool without even knowing what they are paying for.
I love it. This console is fresh, anyone who says its a waste of money clearly can't afford it without mommy and daddy. It comes with a halo and 2 controllers. The 250gb is 250 now . For an extra 100 bucks you get a new design and another controller with the game. It's makes up for the pricing and its better because its custom.
Found the pricings of each separate items. 320GB consoles $400. 1 controller $60. Halo 4 $60. Headset $20. 400+120+60+20=600. You buy something that is worth $600(without tax) for $400 (without tax).
not gonna lie that xbox controller looks freakin sweet, i would think about buying the bundle if there were more 360 games i wanted but all im instrested in is halo & gears
you should definitively go for this one. Halo 4 is one of the best upcoming game of all time. I personally own a ps3 and I'm going to buy this special edition xbox. GO FOR IT!!!
That it does not have voice is because it uses that memory for better games but the play station vita does have voice party chat. And you can use a phone with the ps3 headset while in a game so if it really is your friend you could call them our use Skype via a laptop connected via Bluetooth. Also ps3 controllers use Bluetooth which is less laggy then 360's wireless.
Watching in 2019 cause i love special edition consoles... Did anyone else realise he said this is the 3rd halo console they have made??? 4 they have made 4!
kevin duggan yes
I have a Star Wars limited edition xbox 360.

I have the halo 3 Xbox
One more day until it comes out. I can't WAIT!
Yea, if you're thinking of buying it. I would do so immediately. Some Gamestops have stopped taking pre-orders, and their online website says it's no longer for sale. Try to get it on Amazon!
fells like its chrismas morning *slams the console a few times*
its so cool that you can buy this console and get the alternate halo 4 controller and it still matches the console
I want this so bad.. My 60GB 360 started RROD'ing last night.. Had that beast for 4 years..
Love how they stopped adding in the HD cables when they introduced the new modeled Xbox. Was pretty disappointed, but thankfully I replaced it with the HD cable they included in the Xbox 360 Pro Bundle..Hoping to see that they'll end up adding them.

i agree, and i would also be using my 360 s years from now. casual gaming, family nights, kinect, movies nights, etc.
it's actually the 5th special edition xbox because they also had an original xbox special edition for halo 1&2
Just pre ordered my console today, pretty stoked
3:49 " let's plug it in real quick..." red ring
I heard the PS3 also comes with features like, Summer time black outs for 2 months. Continuous updates is another fun feature. And who could live without the lack of party chat.
For those who dont have a hdmi cable I recomend it because it make the colours feel more alive
Exactly, Halo 4 is going to be amazing, plus no one can deny that this console is probably the best looking console to be released.
Correction, The ps3 has 1 PPE 'core' and 7 SPE cores. The PPE is the main core and is used for the OS. 6 SPE are dedicated for gaming, the remaining is turned off.

Preordered halo 4 limited edition. Gonna get it at funan tomorrow!! Can't wait
But blu way means more space for bigger games like a halo with way more multiplayer levels or less compressed game textures so the cpu can be used fo the game instead of uncompressing dvd which only holds 8GBs while blu ray holds 50Gbs.
Just got this for Christmas, psyched.
im still using the good ol' xbox 360 pro which CAME with a HDMI cable, but i have to admit, this console looks awesome
Actually the 320 gb hard drive can be bought separately now. It also includes a copy of LEGO Star Wars III: The Clone Wars. It costs 129.99 They have it at gamestop
Picking mine up in a few hours!! Too excited
4:43
Currection. You CAN buy a 320 GB Hard Drive without getting the a special edition console. I got an Official Xbox one on amazon for 90 bucks.
I liked the Reach console more; it was more understated and the eject/power sounds were pretty cool. It's still nice for a limited edition but there's no way they should still be charging $400 for these when you consider the thing's been out 7 years, 320GB or not.
It has free wifi built in for the wireless users, its customized. It's only 349.99 now so.
I mean you dont have to bang the Xbox on the table
i love how he is showing a halo 4 console but he has a fallout 3 vault behind him
you can buy a 320gig hard drive in stores you can get them at game stop for 120
U actually buy 320 gig hard drives for ur xbox in store. The eb games near me sells them
He is very lucky I bet as soon as filming stopped he just put the system fully plugged in and started playing!!!!
I can't believe it's almost here. Halo 4 is going to be absolutely epic.
when he slammed it at 3:09 upside down, my heart stopped
i preordered mine for $400 at gamestop then went to the midnight release and i found out price was reduced and i got like $52 back in cash was quite a nice surprise so i ended up buying assassins creed 3 that night too
It's actually a pretty good deal! Makes you save some money and get a copy of the game. Not mentioning the controllers.
Sick design by the way!
it's less than $5 a month and it's optional. you can choose how long you want it or when to cancel. i'm not mad at all =) i don't know much about ps3 users, but don't you guys have something call psn plus? or something like that?
Just pre ordered the 20th anniversary Xbox Series X (Game UK)
got this bad boy on pre-order and cannot wait to get it!
that's true, it does hold more, but then again... i never really bothered me to switch discs when i played final fantasy (4 discs) on the playstation so it doesn't really bother me now. but yes, it would be more of a convenience indeed!
- You mean one of those that don't use adblock? You know a lot of people rely on those ads to make their living on UA-cam.
i do agree with you that it's overprice, but as a halo fan myself, i'll make it an exception.
it's a 7 year old system with a few tweaks here and there and microsoft should've dropped the price to at least $150 by now. to be honest, i wouldn't even bother picking up a slim just because the new console should be coming out in 1-2 years. but you're 100% right indeed.
Brings back memories
Actually, you can buy a 320GB hard drive in stores.. $129.99 (hard drive only) at gamestop. They've been selling them for at least a year now.
I couldn't agree more my friend. Halo 4 will be promising. Got my copy reserved already. I just can't wait.
? idk why people are claiming he slammed it on the table. I thought he did it regularly
I totally want this Xbox for Christmas
resident evil had one, but it was for the old 360. i believe it was the resident evil 5 edition?
I'm Getting this for Christmas!!! Can't Wait
Thumb up for vault 101's entrance from Fallout 3
You said the console is $400, but it's actually on-sale for $350 at most stores.
Why are people saying the release of this console is too close to the 720's when the 720 hasn't even been announced yet? Yeah we all know its going to come out but Microsoft has always said the 360 will be a 10 year console. Am I missing something here?
If u think about it, xbox not including hdmi was so anyone could play right out of the box
I saw you get that awesome 343 armor and helmet only with this console edition. Its the armor with the horn but it sucks you have to spend 400 to get it
2:16 not everybody has an hdtv, or hd slot in their surround sound. Lots of people just buy whatever cause it look cool without even knowing what they are paying for.
IGN, how difficult would it have been to put the AA batteries included in the box in the controller for a demo?
Love the vault 101 painted on the wall. fallout
Back in the day the xbox did come with HD component cables
Only 3 hours left until I get my copy. MIDNIGHT RELEASE HERE I COME!!!
I love it. This console is fresh, anyone who says its a waste of money clearly can't afford it without mommy and daddy. It comes with a halo and 2 controllers. The 250gb is 250 now . For an extra 100 bucks you get a new design and another controller with the game. It's makes up for the pricing and its better because its custom.
I love the star wars sound
Found the pricings of each separate items. 320GB consoles $400. 1 controller $60. Halo 4 $60. Headset $20. 400+120+60+20=600. You buy something that is worth $600(without tax) for $400 (without tax).
ign has a review for halo 4, you should check it out
You can actually buy 320 gb hard drives for xbox 360. They are always selling them at the best buy where I live.
U know, I might be crazy for saying this, but I love that feeling of when your unboxing something!
Bro I think you predicted unbox youtube
lol, we don't worry about the HDMI cord right? All new entertainment systems seem to come out with them now. Hurray for the future
I just noticed the Vault 101 background. Fallout FTW.
I want that Vault 101 in the back.
I would like it if they gave you the limited edition game box.
not gonna lie that xbox controller looks freakin sweet, i would think about buying the bundle if there were more 360 games i wanted but all im instrested in is halo & gears
I'm a CoD fan & I can admit that this console & the game look pretty badass, that's why I'm buying this instead of Black Ops 2
One of the problems of having the video game name on the Xbox is that after Halo 5 comes out, you're gunna be stuck with the 'old' Xbox.
I have had my 360 for 5years and it still worky like new never stopped never had red rings and always reads the disc
It is a now a universal rule that anyone doing an unboxing must call it a "bad boy"
i dont have HD tv, so for me its good that only a basic cable is included
Thank you wasn't sure if they where or not
if the ring is blue does that mean the ring of death will be purple?
Yep, it sure can. You'll just need an Xbox Live Platinum subscription which provides compatibility with all of the other Xbox 360 games.
"The Halo 4 logo thats pretty sweet". The whole fucking thing is sweet!!
you should definitively go for this one. Halo 4 is one of the best upcoming game of all time. I personally own a ps3 and I'm going to buy this special edition xbox. GO FOR IT!!!
I think we can all agree that the both games are fairly equal and we should not have to choose sides.
He meant that it doesn't include an HDMI cable for you.
That it does not have voice is because it uses that memory for better games but the play station vita does have voice party chat. And you can use a phone with the ps3 headset while in a game so if it really is your friend you could call them our use Skype via a laptop connected via Bluetooth. Also ps3 controllers use Bluetooth which is less laggy then 360's wireless.
Halo 4, The rarity of that one will be a great investment.
Nice Xbox!!! I so want that.
They used to come shipped with HDMI cables.
I just ordered this today. Getting it next week :D
what do you think that console or ps3 super slim 500gb?
and nice unboxing man thanks
I love the Fallout 3 background, anyone notice that too?
"...you're not stuck with Kinect" TRUE, very true.
HOw about the off sound? you forgot to do that!
he wasnt really even slamming it down, volume is just loud
there is a vault 101 door in the back from fallout 3
unless you're not a star wars fan like myself, but it does look pretty nice though.
He didnt even mention that this console includes built in wifi.
Badass vault in the back!
i like this guy, he actually speaks the truth about the console. not like the other people, that are paid to talk good about the xbox
