Call of Duty certainly knows how to wear out its merchandising welcome. After announcing a line of eye strain-reducing glasses (http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/25/gunnar-optiks-crafts-limited-edition-modern-warfare-3-specs-kee/) and a series of branded headsets (http://www.engadget.com/2011/07/19/turtle-beach-unveils-limited-edition-modern-warfare-3-headsets/), Activision's juggernaut franchise is steamrolling its pre-release hype all over a custom Xbox 360 (http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/07/gears-of-war-limited-edition-xbox-360-paints-the-town-crimson-c/). The limited edition 320GB console comes bundled with two similarly bedecked wireless controllers, a requisite copy of Modern Warfare 3 and even includes franchise-specific boot sounds. You can snag this video gaming swag on November 8th for a cool $399, or grab the headset and controllers separately. It's your call and your paycheck, after all. Official presser awaits you after the break.
