In what could be the lamest marketing ploy, Microsoft released a Halo 3 Special Edition Xbox 360. What’s so special about this Xbox 360? It is green, it has a green controller, it has the Halo 3 logo on it and it costs $50 more than the comparable white Xbox 360. Well, you say, that $50 is because they have bundled Halo 3 in with this special edition Xbox 360. WRONG. In a run away show of lameness, Microsoft has released a special edition system based on a game WITHOUT THE GAME it is based on. Sorry, that’s just stupid.

actually the only benefit to this system is the CPU on this one is of the 65nm design and not of the older 90nm design. 65nm CPUs won’t be available generally until the end of the year. perhaps this will help mitigate failures due to overheating.
