RE: X-box 360
All these new consoles...I know I'm not gonna get any of them for a while. But, to comment:
The wireless controller thing kinda turns me off. I haven't used wireless controllers in a long friggin time. Last ones I've ever seen and used in person were line-of-sight, which made me hate the idea of wireless controllers. These new ones work with radio signals, don't they? That's not so bad. And the idea of batteries running out scared me a bit until I read more, about how you can charge them while you play. And I'm glad they finally got a good design. I think this proves that Sony had the best controllers all along. Although, these new X-Box controllers are damn snazzy looking.
And I don't know about all that technical junk, but from the sounds of it these next gen consoles are gonna be insane. I think this insanity in the consoles stems from the insanity of the developers. Especially Nintendo has been really weird about how they refer to their consoles, with weird symbology and whatnot. The "circle of light" on the front of the 360 and whatnot that I read about....they're being kinda ridiculous. Crazy nerds.

In less-depressing news, I got a job for an online business (which sells non-electronic games, of all things!) which has taught me a lot about marketing online and all that jazz.
So now I'm on Twitter @NoahWright.
And I write the blog for their website.
Plus I do cool programming in-house that you'll never see. =O
