Pretty good bundle, but the color kinda grosses me out. Resident Evil theme shouldn't be a crappy red, maybe it looks better in person?

Yeah,I was thinking the same about the color.They should of got like a black & red color,it would look better than just red.This thing is probably going to be worth a lot later on.

yeah- i don't know why being a gamer means you have no taste when it comes to this kind of thing. All the mods out there are all neon bullshit and bright colors. blech!

the Japanese resident evil ps3 is much much better. More subtle.

The console is actually red and black if im not mistaken, from what pics ive seen of it opened. The top is red, bottom red, back red. Sides are black, memory card slots are black, headset is black. Im not sure about the cd slot though...i just know that link isnt the "correct" color deal compared to what ive seen opened lol.

As far as value...keep in mind there was a resident evil/biohazard dreamcast...if you can find one now its sky high in value.

I thought it was a good bundle though, more so...i like the fact the price is still only 399$ and they didnt try to slam 500$ out of it.

It matches the LEDs on the fan I put in.

i actually thought about taking the RE5 case and chopping it up just to use watercooling in it with red dye. I know im gonna paint a custom wireless up for it. Red and black of course ;)

I had this or the Pro w/ some extra games and I went for the Pro. I saw the color in person but its too red for me, if it were say a darker, blood color, it would be awesome, but its just too bright.

Well, they had a red 360 playing RE5 at gamestop. So I assume that is the RE5?
