    I wonder if it comes with the head. Seems they've got retro games in mind, with their take on Rob the Robot.

    Well the MTV event already happend but they wont air it till next week, but that doesnt stop people that went there from spilling the beans. I found this on the Gaming-age forums here is a summary of what was shown:

    In summary then.


    Hardware:-

    * DVD burner
    * tivo capabilities
    * customization for your xbox (faceplates)
    * wireless
    * text messaging on XBL
    * xbox live button on the controller that pops up a menu with live options

    The Games :-

    Perfect Dark Zero
    * Playable
    * 22 weapons, able to import your own body
    * you can fly with a jetpack on the map
    * counter strike feel
    * invisibilty gun
    * strapped to wall gun - shots people when they walked by.

    A new Medal of Honor game
    * Battlefield like

    A new Ghost Recon game
    * Ghost Recon 3 with some new HUD

    A medieval rpg. Possibly Elder Scrolls Oblivion

    I like the white, it's definately not a color for messy people though. The silver logo/trackball (what is it?) is damn ugly though, they should have made it look like an eyeball or put a camera or something useful in it! Other than that I dig the controller. The actual case isn't that bad IMO either as long as it's not silver, ugh, I do hate silver stuff, unless it's chromed out.

    The jewel on the pad is a 4 way button/ball by the look of it, so I was semi right!

    I hope you don't need to have online capabilities to use the damn thing. I just want a console , not some fucking webtv.

    Ok, that's freakin ugly. I think it's a MAJOR step down from the original. Looks more like an "all-in-one media device" rather than a console, which I think is stupid. I was hoping that Microsoft would make it look similar to the DC, kind of like Yakumo's avatar. -_-

    I quite like the look of it - I just hope they don't price themselves out of the market - sub £200 is good with me

    don't know if it's true, but the ps2 seems like a big whale compared to the other twos.

    I read that it's supposed to be around the same size as the old Xbox...

    A remote pad with no power-on button for the console. This lazy person is unimpressed.

    And is it compatable with Xbox games or what?
