The limited-edition Simpsons Xbox 360

by Christopher Grant { May 10th 2007 at 12:28PM }

Just in case black isn't your thing, Microsoft is making 100 limited-edition Simpsons-themed Xbox 360 Pro consoles available at a series of "special events and promotions" (which we're sure you'll be hearing about in the future) in advance of the long-time-coming Simpsons Movie, making its way to theaters on July 27. Winners will have to wait several months before playing EA's just announced (and rather promising) Simpsons game on the console, which isn't due until the fall, but it's not based on the movie anyhow ... and you call this brand synergy?

damn that looks awesome. i still have my yellow Game Boy Color. Yellow = underrated when it comes to consoles.

would prefer if it didnt have the simpsons stuff on it though.

Clever. Cool.

ewwwwww!

A super gay color for a super gay console. That controller screams "shove me in your boyfriend's ass".

Shagittarius @ May 10th 2007 1:14PM

Haha the guy named NUMBER ONE is fascinated with Number 2.

haywood jablomey @ May 10th 2007 1:16PM

I just Number One'd up your ass, Number One.

Although, I had to pull your dad's fist out, first.

C. Grant @ May 10th 2007 1:21PM

bye bye Number One.

Martin Austin @ May 10th 2007 1:25PM

WTF? Where is C. "The Regulator" Grant when you need him?

On topic, my wife would love this version since she loves the Simpsons. Too bad there are only 100 of them.

This is TOTALLY going to match my all yellow dvd player and surround sound speakers.

I actually want it though just cause its Homer Simpson and its glossy

mike @ May 10th 2007 1:35PM

but is it an elite model or premium?

Minus @ May 10th 2007 1:35PM

What happens when it invetably gets the red ring of death? Will Microsoft send you another Simpsons edition Xbox 360?

airtoast @ May 10th 2007 1:40PM

I can hear it now. They'll be saying, "D'oh! My 1 out of 100 limited edition Simpsons Xbox 360 is showing the three red donut rings of death!"

Snap @ May 10th 2007 1:49PM

I hope they'll give that controller a SKU. Yummy!

kingofwale @ May 10th 2007 1:51PM

.....

yammmm...three red donut rings!...*drools*

Tony Bowman @ May 10th 2007 2:05PM

the donut in homer's hand should have been around the power button, so when you get the red ring of death, it lights up the sprinkles.

If it didn't have that stupid "THE SIMPSONS MOVIE" on the bottom this might actually be pretty cool.

Maybe a little too Sponge-Bob-esque though.
I wish they had just gone with the "SIMPSONS" text in the clouds like from the intro to the show. That would have been a lot cooler.
