Red X-Boxes on the way

Joystiq collects available info on the forthcoming Red XBox 360.

The unannounced product has stumbled into the public eye much in the same way that many of Microsoft’s secrets do — first a rumor, then a retailer inventory listing and then an innocent mention in a New Zealand-bound press release.

Alright, maybe that last one doesn’t quite adhere to the formula, but according to Kotaku, an MS New Zealand promotion for the upcoming release of Halo Wars — buy a 360, get a free copy of the game! — explicitly excluded “the Red Xbox 360 Elite console which is exclusive to EB games.

    …because your entertainment system needs an eyesore and your current Xbox could die any moment now.

    I mean, how many Halo fans don’t have an Xbox yet?

    This is probably designed to hide the Red Ring of Death.

    Why is a different color of plastic exciting?

    Couldn’t you do the same to your own with a very casual weekend worth of work?
