Microsoft is dropping a new Xbox 360 Elite bundle along with the release of Resident Evil 5 on Friday, March 13th. Spooky.
The bundle will go for $399 and include a red Xbox 360 elite, a matching red controller, 120gb hard drive, black headset, a copy of Resident Evil 5, and a download token for Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix. Not too bad to include the two games at the regular price.
I’m sure these are going to be hard to get, so pre-order if you really want one. My 10th 360 is still going strong (knock on wood), so I’m good to go with this one for a while.
Here’s the press release:
