Now there is a Lmt ed. BLUE Xbox in Canada!!

[devils advocate]

here it is...

This will probably go for big bux on evilbay, as it's only available through bell in Canada.

Geez. All optimum online offered me was some crappy mp3 player. Pretty soon they'll have a full roygbiv of xboxes.

Why can't the US get some of these limited systems? The only one we got that I know of was the Halo Xbox.

[LiquidX01]

Heh, wait till Tholly see's this.... LOL

[Gemini-Phoenix]

I have heard they are going to be rereleasing the Green one again in the UK after christmas!

Why can't they come up with some new colours? A clear red one would look great!

[Cauterize]

A clear red one would look great!

...and would go well with ur ps2!

[Brian_Provinciano]

BLUE!!! Translucent BLUE!!! I will finally have to get an XBox! I'll buy any console that's BLUE....

hmmm... too bad it comes with such a damn catch. When I get an XBox, I'd want a translucent blue one no question! However, Bell is eastern Canada, and I'm in the west... useless offer!

[jdc]

That's good, I live in eastern Canada. I was hoping we'd have a choice other than the clear one. The clear one is kind of.....bleh.

[EnemyZero]

this stinks, we get the shaft in the US when it comes to systems....::blames family for moving from canada::

[IcewynG]

That blue one looks better than the transparent one really. If I had the money, I dunno if Sympatico would let me get one (even I am already a subscriber) ;) Guess I'll have to ask them....

Now, let's see what drive they have in there...

[Xtasy]

Well on x-s there are things floating aroudn that one of the board members may start making translucent cases, like the kasumi chan without lettering

Basically a same see through design as kasumi but without DOA lettering and in different colorurs IE red.

They have already made some controller cases

Also why would ms be re-releasing the green one when they've just re-released the crystal one. I would have bought one but only black would match with my setup and it wou;d stick out like a sore thumb! Also they are a pain to mod

Look cool! But I couldn't get it even if I wanted to, since I'm already a Bell Sympatico High Speed subscriber... :(

(and is this why my monthly Sympatico bill will be increased by $5 next year?)

I know they do this to get people away from subscribing to Videotron's cable Internet (in Quebec) and from Rogers' cable Internet (in Ontario), but it sucks that people who have been using their service for years can't even take advantage of the offer.

Oh, and I don't know what's up with Microsoft Canada and all the limited ed Xboxes... But it sure looks like Microsoft Canada is truly a separate entity from the US head office, unlike Nintendo of Canada, who pretty much mimics whatever NoA is doing in terms of releases.

[tholly]

Heh, wait till Tholly see's this.... LOL


now come on.....why does it have to be for new sympatico subscribers only...i would pay $185 for that if I could just buy it outright

.....looks like ill be hitting up ebay this summer if i have some extra money to blow

....and i still need to pick up one of those clear systems (im hoping they decide to bring them to the US, not just Canada)

[slip81]

All these Xbox color variations, you'd think the people at Nintendo in charge of the GBA SP took over Microsoft :) Looks coll though, If I ever get another Xbox it will be either this one or the crystal one, unless they release an orange one. I'd buy that for a dollar!

[The Manimal]

I actually think that looks pretty good! Too bad I live in the U.S...

[kevincure]

Is that Canadian $185?! If so, I'll pay any Canuck here 150 US (about 200 CAN) + ship for one, and you can keep the year of Live!

The Canadian dollar ain't that bad anymore my friend, so $150 probably isn't going to get many responses me thinks.

I wish I had a Bell store near me though, closest one is like 3 hours away. :(

[SoulBlazer]

What about $175? ;)

[kevincure]

Hey, I'll go US200 if you send down the box + games (you can keep the Live). If anyone decides to pick it up, be sure to let me know.

.
thats easy just cancelled the current subscibtion and open a new account, under another family member's name ;)

[Lady Jaye]

It's ok, I'm not that interested in it. And I'm not just going to fuck around with my Internet subscription just to get an Xbox for someone else either.

[devils advocate]

OOhhhh.

This may be the most rare of all.

It's real. The owner is the head of PR for live!

Tell me about it.

[Ed Oscuro]

Apparently because we're all happy enough to snap up the regular ones and don't need any extra motivation o_o

[IcewynG]

Just to let you all know... got a flyer today and they say the offer is extended until December 31th. More time to find someone who will subscribe and help me get that Xbox from the store! Almost got someone to do it but it didn't work out. :(
