At Activision's Call of Duty XP (http://joystiq.com/tag/call-of-duty-xp) event, the publisher announced a Modern Warfare 3-themed 320GB Xbox, which will include two matching controllers, and custom startup and disc loading sounds (which you can listen to here (http://majornelson.com/2011/09/02/xbox-360-limited-edition-call-of-duty-modern-warfare-3-console-wireless-headset-with-bluetooth-and-wireless-controller/)). Those controllers a will be available separately, for $60, packaged with tokens for exclusive downloads.

In addition, Microsoft will launch a new MW3-themed headset, which can be used either on the console or as a Bluetooth headset. It'll also include exclusive downloads, for $70.

Oh, and of course the bundle includes a copy of Modern Warfare 3. A month of Live is also thrown in. Check out the hardware in our gallery below, and decide if it's something you want to drop $399 on. Major Nelson reports that it's up for pre-order in "the U.S., Canada, Mexico, Australia, New Zealand, and EMEA," and will ship November 8.
