20 gig 360's to have HDMI in September!

[Anthony1]

Well, at least the Halo 3 Edition will. I have to imagine they would pass it on to regular 20 gig 360's.

why the fuck would you make a Halo 3 pack and then not include the game.

I agree fully but that's par for the course with Microsoft IMO

AAAAAAHAHAHA For some reason this made me laugh pretty loudly...

Special edition? No thanks. Limited edition? Sure.

The hell are they thinking not including the game? I know they said they want people to make their own choice as to what version of the game to buy -- but if they make a 4th version that only comes with the console (and maybe a Halo goodie like a figure or something) then it becomes a system seller in its own right.

Missed opportunity, I say -- though obviously there's still time to rectify.

yeah I can see them packing in Halo 3..... I mean they did it with the original XBOX.. so I think/HOPE they will follow suit.

Any word on wether this one will have the 65nm chips?

Special Edition = we're going to make as many as possible to sell as many as possible and rake in the cash

Limited Edition = Actually limited production numbers, maybe collectible aka the original Halo XB

This isn't always true, but should tell us off the bat that you'll be able to find these things lining the shelves at Walmart come Q4.

Oh, and yes----WTF on the no game? O_O
