Looks like a shitty Alien Ware PC case.
Still better looking than the PS3 slim though.

Really I think it's one of the most sexiest systems ever. Hell, I want my 80gb Ps3 to break so I can go buy a slim.

It's almost certainly real. Someone posted a direct URL to MS' ad server on the previous page:

http://ec.atdmt.com/b/NMITMUMIMHPU/Xbox_BigBird_IT_300x250_V1R2.jpg
"Vivi Oggi. Pronta per il futuro la tecnologia del Domani."

You can play with the file name and get an earlier version (V=version, R=release I'm guessing)

http://ec.atdmt.com/b/NMITMUMIMHPU/Xbox_BigBird_IT_300x250_V1R1.jpg
"Vivi Oggi. Pronta per il futurola tecnologia del Domani."

V1R1 is quite poor Italian. The final V1R2 is more grammatically correct.

Pretty sure anyone faking it wouldn't bother creating multiple versions with a sensible file naming structure. Looks like the work of some poor designer working in a digital ad agency.

I say this is real.

Is it reasonable to assume that it has a chance to launch very soon then (along with Natal)? Or is the fact that it's an ad irrelevant?

compatible with kinect/natal could also mean that there is no natal/kinect bundle (maybe later). i really expect this thing to launch in the next 2 weeks.

Black is the new black.

We had a white fad there for a while post-iPod, but now everything's going back to the old home theater look. Stereos, speakers, and consoles. Nice.

Pricing of Kinect is now key. People will forgive a shitty looking console (with a HDD) if they can get it and Kinect together for a decent price.

is it supposed to have that dent in the middle or am I losing it?

Random thought, but will the Kinect logo be that font and colour in the ad?

A picture of the MS booth at E3 had a conspicuous amount of that shade of violet...which is why I'm inclined to believe in the name, Kinect, as it also has the same shade.

I retract my previous statement after seeing the bigger picture.
Still think the PS3 slim is ugly though. :p

Sexiest slim console is the PStwo.

The design is actually growing on me.

But it still looks longer than the orignal 360.

Didn't see that...but now it makes sense why they were saying in that article about the cds show, why the 'colour scheme' even is being kept quiet.

That would be quite a big change.

Maybe Kinect has a launch game that walks you through this? Plate Denter!

Just wonder who the developer is? Rare maybe?

This is the weird thing though...there have been no retail hints about it. IIRC, retailers were reporting that PS3 supply was drying up and that PS3 product codes were changing about a month before the slim was unveiled.

Although maybe it doesn't always work that way. I dunno, I don't work in retail :lol
