The H3 Special Edition Xbox 360

A Special Edition Halo 3 Xbox 360 is coming out in September. It is a dark military green color with what they are calling gold accents, but it looks more orange-y to me. It also has Halo-ish markings and a worn finish that makes it look like it's been in some battles. Xbox360fanboy has some nice hi res pics, and confirms that there will be an H3 special edition wireless headset sold separately also.

M$ extending warranty coverage to 3 years for Red Lights of Death

Both teamxbox and ars gaming are reporting that Peter Moore (VP at m$) delivered an open letter announcing that m$ is extending the manufacturer warranty from 1 year to 3 years only for the Red Lights of Death issue.

Hopefully you never have to take them up on the offer (but chances are you will).


Update:
The letter was posted to xbox.com. I have to add it to my rss feeds...
