Game merchandising and Gears of war2

Game merchandise has always impressed me. During my recent trip to belgium i saw the limited edition halo3 boxes, and they totally blew me away. In fact i'd already seen it online, and knew what was in it. It just never hit me until i actually saw one of these on a shelf.
for those of you who don't know its a large cube cardboard box, which includes among other stuff a helmet...an actual Halo helmet with golden visor and all!



One can only wonder what theyre going to do for Gears of War!:cheers:
Heh and now i just found out that the Gears of War 2 packaging will have two colour options.
There will be red one

Then theirs the special limited edition BW version

The xbox site has wallpapers for it here

An IGN.com also has some, here.
