Halo 360 bundle for Christmas?

Picture evidence says yes.

Microsoft could be preparing a special Halo 3 Premium 360 (HDMI) bundle in time for Christmas.

Rumours emerged from Game Portugal (pointed out by Kotaku), who produced a listing stating it would cost 409.96 (GBP 283.68).

This was followed by Spanish forum elotrolado.net publishing pictures of a purchased bundle, flaunting Master Chief on the packaging and a special "bundle" copy of the game.

The photographs also showed the HMDI port, Hitachi DVD drive, general contents and pictures of the receipt, showing EUR 384.90 (266.38) as the price.

Microsoft was unavailable to comment at the time of writing.

Yesterday the platform holder confirmed it would be bundling copies of Forza 2 and Marvel Ultimate Alliance in with Xbox 360 and Xbox 360 Elite units as part of a special Christmas deal in the US, adding up to a saving of around USD 90 if you were to buy the games separately.
