It's not very good, but here is a photo of Xbox 2 (or at the very least a portion of Xbox 2)
-
proof?
-
that looks like a humidfier or something, lol... nice try
-
..You'll see. I swear it's authentic.
-
And here is a MicroSoft developer returning to his lair...uh, office...

the above is a picture of the new "retro box"
-
oh and what portion of the xbox is the photo showing. if you didn't take it, then why believe it? why believe you anyway? i'll be the first to see it when we get the M$ demo packs and the reps come...we're the first to see before anyone...

::) ::)

Then why do I have this photo and not you?
-
Its a real pic off that new whateveryoucallit reality game for xbox360.LIke the halo campaign.What it is however isnt known.It may just be an addon or something.
-
Let me rephrase...i'll be in the first group to physically see it and play it before anyone else who doesn't attend e3, which is the majority.
"Then why do I have this photo and not you?"
Because you have the internet, and someone else has photoshop or paint.
-
That picture looks strikingly similar to my wife's vacuum cleaner with the handle removed.

Does this mean that the Xbox360/2 is going to ....... suck!?!?! :P ;D
Gah... I'm sorry...... what a terrible joke.
-
Terrible or not, it still made me laugh so hard I can barely see right now. :)
-S
-
IGN reported this picture aswell.
Whats with the guy swearing its authentic?
XBOX 360 is such a lame ass name.
-
I'm just messing around. I'm sure it IS authentic. It's obviously Microsoft running the ourcolony.net website. It is definitely a picture of Xbox 2 or an Xbox 2 peripheral.
What do you do for the videogame industry caffinefiend? Whatever it is you seem to take a lot of pride in it. I would imagine that there are focus groups, hardware developers, game developers, upper-level people at game publishing firms and journalists from major game publications that will all get handson time with Xbox 2 before me. What do you do for a living?

And thanks alot wrxh8tr :P I was hoping to drag this out a lot longer. And WRXs are fun cars to drive, especially the 300hp version.

Asks if you'd like the replacement warranty with your game/system.

It actually looks like a shot of the confermed dev machines..
-
The dev machines are just Apple G5's with dual processors, 512 MB or RAM and an ATI X800 based videocard. They sport the usual aluminum mesh case that all G5's have.
Pretty comical for a Microsoft Product to be made with development machines running a Mac OS.
-
No no no. You're all fools! This is what it's realy going to look like!
:P
If you couldn't tell, I got the picture from xbox-scene...
-
I think that might be the real thing. The picture up top could be the black part that sticks out on the left side of that last photo. And there are some fairly reliable sources confiming that last pic.
-
It's going to sell for $500+
-
No way. It would be an automatic failure. They'll have two versions. One will be a $300 barebones version that will play all the games, the other will be a $400 version that will include WebTV and probably media center capabilities.
-
For those interested in an unobstructed version of the picture crashwg posted, here you go.

Who the hell cares what it's going to LOOK like?
-
thats a render, not a photo
secondly
i am not part of the mtv extreme sports generation of losers and halo addicts who don't know about pc gaming and how we've played better than halo for years now...
so i will not be purchasing the next xbox
and yes...I am important in the industry...well "important" has it's definitions...in the grand scheme of things i'm not...
-
Who do you work for, the CIA? What's with the cryptic response.
Secondly,
I'm not concerned whether it's a render or photo if it's accurate.

Is that you blueoakleyz?
Get off your high horse. Most here are past the age of your "MTV generation". For supposedly working in the "industry" you sure have nothing but negative things to say about it. In fact, most of your posts seem to be nothing but whining about how this system sucks or that game sucks.
You work at a store. You don't make, publish or do anything with games save for ringing them up at the register. You're not as important to the video game industry as you think.

Are you telling us that your life is so empty and void of meaning, that you occupy your time SPECULATING on the design and aesthetics of a gaming console????
Dude...... :-\
-
What it looks like also shares what it'll be able to do. I don't see the harm in speculating.
Come on... as if you don't care what this thing'll look like in your living room ;)

"You work at a store. You don't make, publish or do anything with games save for ringing them up at the register."
whatever you want to assume... hahahaaa ::)

psp = poorly built... at work we had 25 out of 300 come back, which is a high percentage...broken square button, air bubbles in screen, 5 pixels in a row stuck on yellow...
Enough said.
-
(Im at the Gamestop counter now) Ok ill take the Gamecube 2 with RE6 and Super Hyper Mario Kart Turbo.
Please bag those well CF, thankyou. ;)

WTF... You've said yourself you work at EB Games... although I seem to remember you saying you were "still in the system" meaning you quit or got fired. Get over yourself kid.
And BTW... he's not blueoakleyz. caffinefiend = dreamcastninja..... not that that is much better. He's admitted to that before on the board too, but I'm sure he'll give a 15year old response to that too.
EDITED for correctness

Thanks for clearing that up. I knew I recognized the attitude somewhere I just wasn't sure if it was blueoakleyz or subzero23.
Hey, I could have asked if he was dreamcastninja. ;D

I was wrong... he IS dreamcastninja. I just did a quick search cuz when you said that, I questioned myself.
They're all just huge tools in my mind, so I'm sure you can understand how I got them confused :)

Yeah, amongst those three it would be kinda difficult to tell them apart.

It'll be $500+ CDN then

We all appreciate it.

Well...I DO care what it looks like. The Xbox currently sitting in my living room is an eyesore, for example, while the Gamecube looks like a piece of art deco and the PS2 looks like a nice piece of industrial artwork.
But mainly, it's fun. There are new systems coming out and it's exciting. Why do you think movie companies make teaser trailers a year before the movie is released that don't show a single scene from the movie?
-
So Xbox360 will come out before Christmas/05. Does anyone think the PS3 will be release by then? I don't think so.. but would Sony give Microsoft one full Christmas season lead??

Personally I think that a lot of current X-Box owners are going to feel burned that Microsoft is coming out with a new system so soon, effectively abandoning them.

I wonder if Xbox360 will be backwards compatible?

I don't know. Dreamcast came out first and had a significant head start.
Basically, though, Sony probably doesn't have a choice. Even if their hardware can be ready in time for a Holiday '05 launch they can't launch without software. They need to have a slew of titles available, including AT LEAST one killer app. they also have to be prepared to have more software releasing with regularity, at least a few big titles per month. If they rush the development of the software and debut with a bunch of unpolished crap they will practically be asking to lose their place as market leader.

well NES came to us in 85.. and I would say bout 6 7 years later we got snes... Bout the same time frame.... I think if i looked it up correctly.. like every game system from the start has been lik 200-250 and then it drops.. crazy.. like nes game sused to be expensive..30-50bux ..

If i can find the link again, theres something about the Hard drive version being backwards compatable..
