Bungie.net says they'll have plenty of new info on the Halo 3 console tomorrow.

I wanna know what makes it Halo worthy... other than the paintjob?.

 

[Adam]

the only thing it could possibly be is being loaded with content, similar to the Zune.

 

[Sean Bradley]

Maybe some pre-loaded Cortana banter would be nice!

It could just kick on from time to time in the dashboard...

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't this an almost identical scheme to the Halo edition original X-box bundle

Edit from wiki:

"On March 14, 2004, Microsoft released a special version of the Xbox in the United States, Australia and New Zealand. This version was translucent green and came with a copy of Halo: Combat Evolved and a matching translucent green Controller S. The console case featured the Halo logo and the words "Special Edition"; the controller had a jewel that had the Halo logo in place of the normal Xbox logo. The version of Halo that came with this bundle was identical to other versions of Halo, with the exception of a "NOT FOR RESALE" notice placed on the front of the game case. 200,000 of these Xboxes were produced.[citation needed]"

So aside from the color scheme and exclusive content downloads, what sets this apart from the regular 360?

 

[Adam]

HDMI

Thanks, I guess I didn't realize the 360 didn't have that before now. I don't have a 360 so I don't know a whole lot about it.
