X360 FF13 and Conviction get 250GB, games
Microsoft is due to launch two new limited-run Xbox 360 systems, a leak today shows. The Final Fantasy XIII and Splinter Cell: Conviction Special Edition Bundles would include copies of their respective games but also include a larger 250GB hard drive, much like the Modern Warfare 2 pack from the fall. They would also pack in a second wireless controller color-matched to the console, either white for the FF13 system or black for the Splinter Cell version.
An Ars Technica source understands that both bundles should cost about $400 and will ship in tune with when the games themselves are available, resulting in a March 9th release for the FF13 system and April 13th for the Splinter Cell model. Microsoft hasn't confirmed the bundle itself but should do so as early as midnight.
