Engadget has a rundown of the MTV show here.

But the Halo 3 stuff I saw was in a scanned xbox 360 article from a german gaming magazine. Again, engadget has the lowdown on that right here.

There was no Halo 3 stuff on the show. They DID have Ghost Recon 3 though. Maybe it was someone projecting their desires into the article.

I was disappointed that they didn't get into more details about the system and some of the new features that might be offered. The PD0 shots were nice but they wasted 15 minutes just talking to the people who were going to play the game. They could have had the people talking while showing more in game video. Alas, MTV has been worthless since the last days of Nina Blackwood and Martha Quinn.

I stopped in my local EB today to buy a game. While there, I noticed a handwritten sign that they're taking preorders for the 360. I asked the guy working about a price point.

Brace yourselves.

$500.

There goes any chance I had of affording one this fall. I was so shocked that I forgot to ask about a release date.

In addition, he claimed that each EB would only be able to take 20 preorders for the system. That seems extremely low to me.

But I'll take all this with a grain of salt. I asked the guy if that was the price for the hard drive version, and he replied very confidently that there would be no hard drive at all in the 360. Um.... I just let that one slide, didn't feel like arguing with him.

But $500? geeze, that'll seriously hurt sales among us younger, less established types.

hehehe.

Take a closer look at the prototype model, and mess with what almost looks like a mister-cheif drawing at Xbox360.com
