If you have been wanting to upgrade from your old Xbox 360 to a new Xbox 360 Elite, or you want buy your first Xbox 360 console, then now is a great time to do so. Due to the upcoming release of Resident Evil 5, Xbox are releasing a limited edition red Xbox 360 elite with red controller.

The console will cost £229.99 and for that you get the limited edition blood red Xbox 360 elite console, a copy of Resident Evil 5, a red Xbox 360 controller amd finally some download codes which will get you a Resident Evil 5 dashboard and the Super Street Fighter 2 HD Remix game. Not bad for your £229.99.

If you don’t fancy forking out the cash for this limited edition stuff, you can always get some of the accessories like the blood red controller with play and charge kit which is released the same day as the console for £39.99.

All of this stuff is set for release on Friday 13th, you might want to pre-order if you plan on buying one, being limited edition.

However, if you are more of a Halo fan, there are some great bundles which include the console, Halo 3, the recently released Halo Wars game and of course the console itself. You can get any of the consoles with these 2 great game. The arcade version + the games costs around $150, the Premium console with a 60GB hard drive + the games is around £190 and finally the Elite console which comes with a huge 120GB hard drive + the games will set you back £219.99, these bundles are great, however, shame they aren’t in blood red colour.

If the Xbox 360 isn’t really your taste and you’re more of a Playstation person.

  1. You’re dead right about that price Scrooby – it is indeed excellent. I’ve already been told that the only way to get one when they are releases is to pre-order.

  3. Oh my goodness. I can’t even express how much I want that console. It doesn’t matter that I already have an elite… I want that one! Hmmm… I think the bank balance is saying that there’s going to be no pre-order from me…
