Xbox One console pre-order special announced

During the Microsoft E3 2013 presentation, the company announced that there will be a special Xbox One bundle for gamers who pre-order the console.

The limited-edition commemorative bundle (which will be available in limited quantities) features an Xbox One system that comes in premium black packaging with a limited edition Xbox One Day One wireless controller, as well as a unique commemorative Day One Achievement.

The pre-order incentive is said to cost the same as the standard edition – $499 (±R5080*).
