Halo 360 faceplate on the way?

Online retailers list a Halo-themed faceplate for $20; blue covering features Master Chief, little else.

Master Chief may be coming to the Xbox 360 sooner than gamers think--just not how gamers think. Online retailers have begun showing listings for a Halo-themed Xbox 360 faceplate, a detachable plastic covering for Microsoft's next-gen console skinned with art from Bungie's popular shooter.

If the art seen at EBGames and GameStop is accurate, the faceplate will be blue and feature Master Chief's visage right near the console's "ring of light." The two retailers list the faceplate as shipping on October 24 for $19.99. Microsoft was not available to confirm the item as of press time.

Only one thing what if the 360's standing horizontal. :/

[RDPaul]

That is horizontal, do you mean vertical?

[giga Veteran]

We dont even know if those are accurate. I dont believe anything unless its confirmed by Bungie.

Correct, that actually (to me) look kind of like they've been photoshoped :pinch:

then you keep it that way?

I think he meant vertical which means master chief would be hanging upside down :rofl:

[Matrix XII]

I'd probably give that a look :p

I like the way that looks, but I don't know if I'll ever buy faceplates. Seems kinda useless and a waste of money to me :p

I think it's a waste of money to spend $20 on a piece of plastic to decorate and accesorize your Xbox 360.... yea.... but I'm a sucker for anything Halo! :p

[giga Veteran]

Confirmed.

[kylejn]

Looks kinda fugly, IMHO.

Where the hell are all those awesome concept faceplates that they were showing off before the 360 launched?

[PL_ Veteran]

I have my console vertical :(

[magik]

I don't see what the problem is with a faceplate vertical? It's such a sexy faceplate that I really don't think it will look that bad...

[Gavin001]

It doesnt really fit in with the rest of the console :s i dnt like it very much :)

[DELTETHISACCOUNT]

It would look nice if it had just the forerunner design and not the Chief on it. Perhaps the Halo 3 logo instead?

[levianthen]

dumb :(

[Nashy]

The white just looks so much nicer.
