New xbox 360 shown at E3

[Ghosthud1]

As im both a console whore and pc gamer this xbox seriously hits the spot!

• Touch sensitive on/off and eject buttons (like the PS3)

• "Much quieter"

• 250GB internal hard drive, which is still swappable.

• A custom Kinect port (not a standard USB port—it's a USB port that can feed more power)

• There are five USB ports now, with three in the back and two in the front

• AV cable included, an HDMI and optical audio

• Different power supply—it's still big but nearly weightless

• External Xbox 360 hard drives and memory units are NOT compatible with the new Xbox

• Other accessories are

• Internal components that are changed: two small fans changed into one large fan for quieter operation, 45nm integrated CPU and GPU

At last they've stopped mugging people off with external wireless adapters.

Looks alright. Still wont buy one as I don't have enough time for PC and PS3 as it is.

[Ghosthud1]

[AMDFTW]

is it console only or with a game

 

[Ghosthud1]

you will be most likely seeing promotinal bundles for like an extra £10 for two top titles with the consoles or something on the lines of that. But at the moment im waiting for tommorow so i can drop a pre order on one.

Go and watch the E3 Forza 3 Kinect Demo.

Very interesting. The main thing I take away from it is "how long did it take him to memorise what to click when" because he clearly isn't doing it himself.

Xbox... Meh....

As previously mentioned, integrated Wireless and a seperate Optical Out! So you can have HDMI and Optical Out Sound without buying an official Xbox HDMI and Optical lead kit, or hacking the existing cable.

, gotta say that looks awesome, might have to get one to match the TV, PS3 and the unit they sit on .

It's not a bad update. I'm more into the PS3 - but that's definitely a fresh new xbox

PS3. It only does EVERYTHING.

PS3 is boring tbh, I have both systems and the 360 has a lot better controller and feels nice to use. The PS3 seems more like a posh computer. The 360 feels like an actual games console. No more PS3 LINUX

 

[AMDFTW]

ive never owned ither i had a ps2 and loved it and ever since i wanted a PS3 but ime more inclined towards PC gaming now

 

[Brooksie]

I only use the PS3 for blu-ray movies, it's more of a enterainment system for me rather than a gaming system.

 

[thestepster]
