    Only problem being if, during the heat of battle you accidently press it...or worse, your pal who is getting his ass kicked wusses out.

    Yeah, that would suck. How about this though: console doesn't switch off by pad until all the wireless pads connected to it have been switched off. Mind you I tend to think the way most wireless pads work is dumb, they should auto-off after 5 minutes of no pad activity...

    Are we sure about this...those pictures look like they were taken with a cell phone camera or something...and xbox scene says they popped up on their forums.

    From the original post :p
    Given that ourcolony is another "ilovebees" viral marketing thing from Microsoft you can pretty much count on them not stealing dodgy pics from xboxscene.

    yeah but those arent the preview pics. The preview pics show like a thumbstick and one button. These pics came out of nowhere...

    yeah but the car pic I saw was more like the controller teaser pic..like showing a little bit of it. That pic was also much better quality. These look like they were taken by a phone camera or something.

    No, the front title's angle doesn't match the box's angle by a couple of degrees. It's photoshopped.

    Or I'm going blind AND paranoid.

    I wish Adam James would tell us where those came from...because I don't think they're from ourcolony as their pictures only show small parts of the system...and like johnny vodka said, these look like they come from a cameraphone...the sort of thing you'd use if taking pictures of things you're not supposed to.

    As far as ive seen they come from ourcollony from compleating a challenge... and Adam most likely found them on a website. He did not take them himself.

    well on xbox scene, you can see what they unlocked as rewards. They got puzzle pieces that completed to make that red car pic we've all seen. None of the sites I've seen have released a full pic of anythng given off that site. These are all teaser pics...like that car pic. They dont even show the full car.

    Most people probably know about this already, but see http://www.ourcolony.net/thesecret/1426.jpg for more of the car.

    About that cool car image... a quick look at the file format tells me it was made in PhotoShop CS, on a Mac on the 11th of April 2005... at 14:01...

    Ok, so that's not all that intresting, BUT, i can also tell it was exported from a .PSD file called....

    [EDIT---- I can't, for some reason, post the file name... stupid board only includes the first character...]

    There we have it, Microsoft themselfs calling things 360...
    Check it out yourself, open the file in TextEdit or NotePad etc.. and search for 360.

    In that case you may want to watermark them, if you care about people distributing them without acknowledging you.
