Given the outstanding critical and consumer reputation amassed by Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, you’d be forgiven for thinking its upcoming sequel, Modern Warfare 2, wouldn’t need to rely on the peddling of retail gimmicks to help it fulfil its status as a flagship shooter and potential Game of the Year.

However, with publisher Activision/Blizzard already offering up fully functioning nightvision goggles with the game’s expensive Prestige Edition, software giant Microsoft has this week revealed a special Modern Warfare 2 edition of its popular Xbox 360 console.
Revealed at a press event in Los Angeles, the limited edition black Xbox 360 stands above existing versions of Microsoft’s platform thanks to a whopping 250GB hard disk drive and specific custom Modern Warfare 2 detailing.
Expected to hit retail in the United States this coming November 10, the Modern Warfare 2 bundle also includes two black wireless game controllers, a black Xbox 360 wireless headset, a composite A/V cable (what, no HDMI?), and a standard version of Infinity Ward’s Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 videogame.
Priced at a tempting $399 USD, the limited edition Xbox 360 also comes with a one-month Gold subscription for Xbox Live and a free trial with home entertainment specialist Netflix.
