The Xbox 360 will include a 320GB hard drive, a wired headset, and a copy of Kinect Adventures. The Xbox 360 is patterned after R2-D2 from Star Wars and even has a robotic case design and custom droid-like power-on and tray-eject sounds. The gold controller is patterned after C3-PO, with fake “exposed” wiring under the controller.

This bundle will cost you $449.99 and comes with the new Kinect Star Wars game and is now available for pre-order. Microsoft also revealed a new Podracing mode for the game that will be released in time for the upcoming holiday season.
