    You'd think that the people giving this information would provide a picture. It's not as if they would be anymore at risk.

    Let's be realistic, if we all saw how the xbox looked, we would have never thought it was real, it's so ugly. Xbox is hands down the least aesthetically pleasing console ever made.

    I disagree.
    I maintain that the American SNES is by far the ugliest (not to mention pointless) console ever. Why NOA approved such a drastic and stupid change is beyond me, particularly considering how sexy the JPN Super Fami looked.

    The SuperGraphx ain't that pretty either. And Xbox360, although more creative than Xbox2, is still a daft name

    As long as it fits in my entertainment center I don't care. Although i'm still a huge fan of consoles coming as rack mount. :) I'd love the ability to change the front plates so I could color coordinate. I'm sick of electronics only coming in black/silver. I want greens and pinks and choices.

    I thought of all the names, "Xenon" sounded the best (which isn't saying much). Xbox 360 sounds horrible - maybe a "Tony Hawk approved" console or something.

    I mean I dont see people going around saying "oh shit son, I just got tha xbox 360...lets get drunk and play some (enter stupid game here)." It's just a dumbass name. I wonder what they are going to call the real xbox 3. Forget the Playstation 4, buy the new Xbox 5000, that's 4996 times better than the number 4.

    Going along with my previous comment here, I can see it now: Tony Hawk's Underground 4 360. :)

    and do you know why they're calling it 360? because there's the number 3 in it (like one of their competitor) and because 360 is greater than 3.....totally stupid, do they really think we're a gang of morons?

    MS should take a page out of Sony's book and hype their console a lot. Like, tons. Make people piss their pants over nothing.
     
  20. Aw, come on! You can't tell me you're not intimidated by that starkly industrial design! ;) I for one think it's definately an interesting departure from the fairly streamlined designs of most consoles - sure, it's got a bunch of useless frills on the outside, but when else have you seen a console that looks designed to be bolted into the engine of a dump truck?

    And why do people have to bring up that guy's lunch box again? ;)
