I think the Xbox 360 is going to be terrible. I heard it cannot be back compatible with the original Xbox games. PS3 is going to dominate the console gaming :-( .

The real deal.

What a ripoff. Does the controller look familiar (hint: i'm thinking of a word that starts with a 'd' and ends with a 'reamcast')?

depends on where the L and R buttons are...

and how the memory slot is set up...

i wonder what that color scheme reminds me of...

starts with an i and ends in a pod.

made by a fruit.

wow, they're pulling out all the stops on innovation this time...

don't forget the camera in the corner of the first pic.

where have I seen that before? maybe something that starts with an "e", and ends with an "yetoy"! (Ok, that one was really bad. You get the point, they copied Playstation's EyeToy.)

i think the only thing they didn't steal from someone else is the headset. unless the original xbox stole it...

hmm... i'm waiting for games to go back to the cartridge system. becuase DVDs just run out of room, games would be on hard drive platters (in a protective cartridge), and the console had read heads that read it. like a floppy disk. except, no write heads.


now that would be innovation.

meh, microsoft is shooting itself in the foot with this one. they're essentially competing with themselves in the media pc market.

microsoft is taking console gaming in the wrong direction here. they're trying to capture console gaming and make it pc gaming.

merging with the 360 thread.

things aren't looking too great for xbox 360 already. even steve ballmer has called the pre release demos a disaster. in fact, microsoft was forced to bring it's own supporters to applaud for the xbox 360. they had to pay people to clap!
