The NEW XBOX revealed!!

Ok, I decided to write this as it is being watched so my excitement shows. Elijah Wood is the host. He actually used to date a friend of mine from my SXSW days. He comes to Austin every so often, and from what friends of mine have told me he is pretty down to earth. Not bad for a kid who was part of one of the most watched movie series of all time.

I just saw the first glimpse of what is now officially XBOX 360. It is a gorgeous device in white. Looks like it can stand on end as well as horizontal.

Now the Killers are playing what was my summer anthem, "Mr. Brightside". Looks like MTV and Microsoft wanted to go all out on the special effects. Way to kill a live performance guys.

Funny skit with the West Coast Customs guys. They always crack me up.. Now its off to Seattle for a look at the new design. It is one hell of a sexy machine. Changeable faceplates.. Sexy. Wireless controllers. Sexy. Xbox Marketplace.. Well, its like having a cranky wife. (ie, costs you money, but necessary)

They have been showing all the new games. WOW. Is it graphics or is it real! Perfect Dark Zero looks awesome!!

Ugh.. AthenaPMS and her twin sister AthenaTwin. (Two real pains if they do not get their way) I was gaming against those two in the beginnings of Xbox Live. There is a PMS gamer named Trixie and that is her XBL gamertag (not to be confused with Xbox Live's TriXie, she is a nice person!!) who loves using racial slurs in games. If you beat her she calls you something that rhymes with Tigger. She needs to just go hide in the trailer park she came from.

Ok, so the XBOX 360 is definately on my must have list. Can't wait!
