Zune Thoughts: Special Edition Zune : Gears of War

“Specifically, Microsoft has laser-etched that pesky little "Crimson Omen" onto a glossy black Zune 120, pre-loaded the device with 244 pieces of "Gears of War" media -- the soundtrack, concept art, behind-the-scenes vids and so forth, nothing you won't be able to find elsewhere -- and squeezed it all into some "collectible" Gears packaging, featuring our testosterone-addled protagonist pondering the meaning of life. The whole kit will run you $280, with pre-orders at Walmart.com and Amazon.com”

If there’s one thing that Microsoft likes to do, it’s make special edition Zunes. There’s been more of them than I can count! But that’s ok, I happen to really like most of them. It works out well that they have a couple of great properties like this one that allow them to really give a unique Zune too. I’d say this is the perfect gift for any “Gears of War” fan. (Well, other than a copy of “Gear of War 2” of course.) Engadget has some more pictures too!
