			Should be interesting.  Not sure how it will translate to the hardcore gamers, but it's a logical response to Nintendo's Wii.

			One of the producers demoing it today during microsofts presentation was African American and his demo went perfectly. I'm psyched for the media aspect of this alone and if any games catch my eye that's cool 2. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
			And ESPN on my 360!!!! Awesome!!

			It sucks for us early investors especially since its a different hard drive style and am I the only one who thinks the design is fugly? It looks like it was designed by Alienware which is cool for computers but looks odd for a console.

 As far as the early investors the console is 5 years old now. If someone was able to hold out this long god bless 'em.  |
