Matching red wireless controller
120GB hard drive
Resident Evil 5
Super Street Fighter II Turbo HD Remix

120GB HD and HDMI cables included, plus the game if you were interested in it, a very good deal imo.
I know I paid around $50 for my hdmi cable, that means you're getting the game plus twice the HD space for another $50. I'm not usually a fan of these custom cases, but something about the all red looks nice.

That's a really good deal. Minus the price of both included games ($65 for RE5, $15 for SSF2HDTR), you're basically getting a 120GB hard drive for $20 more than the Pro.

I don't like the color :<

if i had funds id snap this up im sick of my old arcade unit with no hdmi port and a crappy hard drive. Ive installed rock band 2 with the rock band 1 songs and my DLC and i have about 1.5gb left on the thing. I would love to migrate to the newer SKU aswell as i cant deal waiting for this time bomb to go off for the 3rd time.

Is it supposed to be blood colored? Because they didn't make it dark enough for that. Maybe in a darkened room while playing games it does. Also the controller really looks odd in that color for some reason. I wonder when the mustard color comes out so people can start calling this one the ketchup colored one.
