Meh, a red 360 doesn't sound like something I would buy.
I actually liked the halo edition 360, and I would have bought it if it wasn't a total rip off.

Will that be a bright red, crimson red, or an RROD red.
C'mon Joystiq, details! ;)

It'll be a "What did the 5 fingers say to the face?" red.

lol oh the irony
but seriously, i bet it will look like the official red 360 controller, which is red with black accents. my friend has that controller and i think a console to match that would look pretty nice.
here's the URL of the Amazon listing for that controller for those that haven't seen it.

Yeah, I didn't like the TriCell logo on the Resident Evil 5 PS3.
I want the Umbrella logo!

bah talk about an Eyesore. I mean I suppose in a Kids room or a Dorm room it would look pretty nice, but in my entertainment center with everything else black it would just be ugly as hell. at least the Wii is small enough to be hidden so you cant see the white, cant wait til they release a black Wii

It could be a [RED] 360? Save Africans from AIDs while you massacre African Zombies who are infected by *story spoiler here*. Controversial!

If it comes with Resident Evil 5 packaged in that 399 bundle, then it will be a great deal. And the red console will probably sell quite well. But if it doesn't, then I don't see why to make it really. As great as color choices are (and I wouldn't mind the red) there has got to be some incentive to buy it.

you know, i have a regular 360 (white 20GB with a 120GB hard drive) but i have never been a fan of the white matte finish it has. i wish it was more glossy like my Wii and PS3......and PSP and DS Lite. it's the only console this gen without that glossy finish (unless you count the DS Phat). i wouldn't mind a glossy black one but i guess it still plays games the same regardless of what color it is.

Wonder if it'll be anything like the one spotted in Vegas last year...

what if it is R.E.D. Resident Evil Deluxe Elite, just a bundle with no special color?

The resident evil edition is the first thing I thought of... I also remember the console in that edition is going to be red

A red 360 with the RRoD will look awesome! I can't wait to see how long it takes to crap out.

I might be in the market to up my game and get an Elite (or at least a new 6OGB Pro), so the red console might be something I can look into soon. I'm rocking a 20GB Pro that's feeling more and more dated every day.
I second the thought that it'd be the same bright red as the controller that's on the market already. I own it; it's a really slick red and black combo.
It'd be really pretty awesome if the console's sides had the Umbrella Corp. logo on it. Maybe blood splatters? (I doubt it though, considering Toys R Us broke the news, after all.)

Hey..we're overlooking the HW RED ELITE text that's in the listing. What's HW?

Seriously?
You MUST be a 360 owner. Matter of fact, I'd guess you've bought 2 or 3 already.

Hardware is one word..not Hard Ware. I think I get a mulligan on that one.

Don't know if it'll be any consolation or enough corroboration for you, but my MS Rep at best buy confirmed that it's the RE5 bundle for us the other day :)

If it's the bundle, then its a pretty good deal... same price as the other elite except w/ RE5 and a bunch of extras included? Heck... buy the red one... set it deep in your entertainment center and replace the faceplate with a black plate... voila. gaudy red unseen.
