Halo/Xbox 360 Ad

Did you all catch the Xbox 360/Samsung Hi-Def Ads played during the MTV special? Notice the music playing in the background? It's Halo!

What are you trying to say MS? Halo+Xbox 360+Hi-def=Great Seller?

Remember back to Xmas 04...TeamXbox is pretty sure Xbox 360 will INCLUDE Halo 2.5. Should be interesting.

As far as the MTV thing goes...I like what I saw. Heres a recap for ya:
  • The Net pics that were leaked were correct
  • No camera, headset, DVD remote was shown
  • Console startup showed
  • Perfect Dark is a 360 game
  • TC: GR3 is a 360 game
  • All games in HD (duh)
  • New site www.xbox360.com
  • Controller shown (leak)
  • Logo shown (leak)
  • Aracde is built in

That's It

All rumors were true...Xbox 360 is just like the pcitures.

It's Starting

Here we go...expect an update soon!

Some Real Info

The June OXM has the scoop on the next batch of maps coming for Halo 2. Although I wouldn't trust a single word written in the magazine... it may be worth it just for some pics. The magazine also comes with a demo of Destroy All Humans!, a game I have been waiting for almost as long as the new maps.

In another Halo 2 note, WTF is up with the "lag outs"? You know, were you go to the blue screen, but then it looks like everyone else quit the game but you? But in reality, you are the only that quit and you come in 8th place? I've gotten 4, YES FOUR, of them in the last week since the reset. Is it just a random stroke of bad luck...or is something up?

You Heard It Here First!

In a brilliant investigation, I, StarDrummer, have unearthed the first details of the next batch of Halo 2 maps.

Well, sorta.

OK, not really.

But I did find Major Nelson's game page, which lists "mysterious" map titles like 1002. Theres no real info to be found...but it's still cool.

Blogger Downtime

Just got an e-mail saying Blogger, who runs this blog, will be offline tomorrow, 5/10/2005, at 4 PM PST for one hour to do some work on ther servers. I'm not sure if this means the blog will be up or down...but in any case, you have been warned.

What Color is YOUR Xbox 360?

A new OurColony.com image hints at the possibility of color-changing Xbox 360, kinda kile most cell phones do.

Again--is anyone really all that excited about this shit?

It should be interesting to see what Thursday brings about. Granted, we already know the name, logo, design, controller, DVD remote, headphones and camera, but even still there is a whole lot we don't know yet-like what it looks like in motion.

I don't have any special pass to see the thing early (in fact it's already taped), so I'll be watching it just the same as everyone else. I'll probably be doing a post every five minutes of so, so be sure to surf here during the commerical breaks for my commentary.

Never Trust MTV With Your Kids

MTV has yet again spilled the beans.

Today, pics of the new Xbox console were leaked onto the Internet. This time, the pics are more revieling and much more convincing. The pics also included the controller, which looks very similar to the orginal Xbox's Controller-S, save for a cool new raised Logo at the top of the controller.

Also, the first ever sight of a DVD controller was revieled, which includes a Windows logo right in the center. Interesting.

Another pic of a camera was also revieled. It still scares me to think about an Xbox Camera...

I can't belive MTV is leaking all of this stuff out. You'd think they would care about people watching the show too, you know.
