any 1 else noticied (Though it may just be the lighting) that the disc tray isnt grey with the words XBOX 360 clearly visible like in the earlier released pictures of the machine front on
i did a zoom in and tried to do find edges, didnt work, but if you invert you can just though very barely make out the XBOX 360
which i reckon basically confirms the name, though it was more then likely, microsoft still havent confirmed... have they

not really relevant, and even though poor quality, does the logo look to be more digital style with straight edges for the 360, instead of the rounded shown in the earlier front images

The button on the control from gaming horizon
"The Xbox 360 controller used at the event was wireless and on the controller had an Xbox Live button which when pushed, an Xbox Live menu pops up on the screen with various options. Text messaging is also integrated this time around with the usual voice communication. A DVD burner with TIVO "like" capabilities is also said to be incorporated. Although, we'll have to see about a DVD burner---seems very interesting."

i dont know if its already been said, doubt it, but at least we all have something to look forward to..
How this thing relates to 360... hopefully it will not be like the current xbox that has that cool catching fire ability and probably reaches 360 degrees.

Bill Gates had this to say about the next xbox New gaming console is going to be this big, promises Bill Gates.
Microsoft chairman Bill Gates has said its next generation Xbox gaming console will be more of a digital entertainment hub than its predecessor, making it even more of a PC hybrid than ever.
He told the annual meeting of the Society of American Business Editors and Writers this week that video game players want to be able to chat with friends, know when others are online and will want to access their music and photographs on their consoles.
The console, code-named Xenon, is due to be previewed in a half-hour special on the music cable channel MTV this month.

i agree. what i think the faceplate things are all about, is that (some select?) games will come with their brand faceplate for you to put on the xbox. like maybe a dbz related plate for a future dbz game? what do you thing? someone should open up a new thread for discussing speculation as to what the system will do and what the terms RESET REALITY and 360 refer to. but ppl would have to base it on something NOT USING THEIR IMAGINATION OF WHAT THEY WANT IT TO DO.
