The console has an R2-D2-style finish, and features custom sound effects on power-up and disc tray opening.<\/p>\n<p>The console is also bundled with a gold controller (C-3PO, get it?), a white Kinect sensor, standard wired headset, a copy of Star Wars Kinect, Kinect Adventures, and something cryptically described as &ldquo;exclusive downloadable content&rdquo; that&rsquo;s probably just an Avatar t-shirt.<\/p>\n<p>It&rsquo;s currently scheduled for a US launch sometime &ldquo;later this year&rdquo;, with no confirmation yet about Europe or other territories. Since Star Wars Kinect is due to release on 31 December, expect this bundle to arrive just in time for Xmas.<\/p>\n<p>I don&rsquo;t know about the rest of you, but I&rsquo;m spazzing out over here. The only way this thing could get any better is if it shipped in a fully-operational Death Star.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/forum\/showthread.php\/15870-Limited-Editions-Star-Wars-Xbox-announced?p=479942#post479942\" target=\"_self\">Discuss the limited edition Star Wars Xbox 360 console<\/a><\/strong><\/span> in the forums<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Force is strong with this one<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":161,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_sma_x_autopost_status":"idle","_sma_x_autopost_error":"","_sma_x_post_id":"","_sma_x_attempts":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13068","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-business"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13068","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/161"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13068"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13068\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13068"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13068"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13068"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
