Special edition Gears of War 2 Zune is revolting

gears2zune-1.jpg

It had to happen. There was no way a single game could keep us this excited without some kind of glitch. Microsoft’s shown off a special edition Gears of War 2 Zune, and it is, to all intents and purposes, horrible.

It’s a Zune 120 pre-loaded with 244 pieces of Gears of War media – shots, movies and the like – and is to ship on November 7, the same date as the game.

It’ll cost $280. As this Engadget piece points out, it still doesn’t synch with your 360. Which is pretty much the icing on the cake, really.

Could be worse… could be as ugly as the Halo 360.

I wonder if they have done some testing and reached the conclusion that ugly shit sell.
*Halo 360
*Halo Zune
*Gears Zune
*Red controller

The evidence is mounting.

The Halo Zune was hawt though. If they’d have given the Halo 360 the same design I’d have bought it in an instant.
