    RE: Re: RE: X-box 360



    Find in-depth gaming news and hands-on reviews of the latest video games, video consoles, and accessories.


    If you look at the Xbox (original) logo (the text, not the symbol), it can almost be written vertically and horizontally, (save for the 'B')...if I were on the Mircosoft design team, I would have tried coming up with a logo that could do just that. Sure, it'd be alittle abstract, but, in the Xbox360's case, there are going to be people who are going to want to have it sit vertically, and others who want it to sit horizonatly.

    What I am trying to say is, I am disappointed in the lack of innovation and originallity in the Microsoft design team.

      Im not.. I like it. I hated that leaked picture of it, but now seeing the system forreal it looks great. If that big macintosh power button pivotted when you rotated it between horizontal and vertical that would be bad ass. But, whatever. It's good how it is.

      Btw, anyone got it preordered yet?.. I do.

          well, evilbutterfly, the controllers have a recharge pack in case u run out of batteries u put the pack in ur 360 controller and put the other end in an outlet so u dont even really need batteries.

            Myself, I cannot wait for the release of this sucker. Literally. I want it now.

            All of the features sound spectacular. I mean, wireless controllers that not only connect to the console itself without any other hardware, but don't lose any functionality from the original controller, and whose charge you barely have to worry about? Sign me up.

            Then there's the fact that XBox Live is going to stay exactly as it is, which means the only transition we XBox users have to go through is switching the Ethernet cable. That rocks so much.

            And the games. Have you seen?! Elder Scrolls IV! Just that is going to make the console worth it, forget PGR3, another NFS game, Perfect Dark Zero, etc., all of which look breathtakingly good.

            I officially forgive Microsoft for jumping the next-generation gun and releasing this system only four years after its predecessor. But these next three months are going to last a very long time.

                  As odd as it is, my brother is getting his the day it comes out. And judging by what you get if you decide upon paying more, it's well worth it.
                  I can't believe I haven't been keeping up release dates..
