They should have included lightsaber to hold so that you feel like less of an idiot when someone sees you playing...not that any of the people who buy this will ever take it out of the shrink wrap...

I like the look of the controller, not so much the console. I cant see it selling to anyone other than SW Fanatics

I wouldn't pay for one (or any 360 that can't be JTAG'd), but I had to admit it looks better than the 360 normally does, and I'm not a big star wars fan.

I agree, bound to stay shrink wrapped & be traded for ever sillier amounts of money on ebay etc over the coming years.

(but it would be pretty amusing if they released it a few more times as a LE as SW gets released & rereleased in various versions in the coming years)
