[Mandoric]

I'm still looking for it... is it the "T" shape thing that could be interpreted as a (short) penis and (weirdly positioned) balls ? Or the cut leg from the X that would be the tip of a penis ?

Yep, it's the T. Stretch it down to fit over where the little bit falling off is, and it's... I mean, it's not anything you'd cover your little sister's eyes over, but it's definitely pretty phallic.

 

[GribbleGrunger]

Hopping it's true because a thing Next Xbox needs is such confirmation it'll exists.

I just had my mind pulled in all directions and then thracked back together.

 

[Whompa]

If that's real they should probably hire a new graphic designer...

 

[DocSeuss]

Why can't any of these fakes ever be done by a professional, educated graphic designer, with basic working understanding of typography...?

Because a professional wouldn't stoop so low.

 

[Tripp Daily]

Because a professional wouldn't stoop so low.

You give people to much credit.

 

[Xbudz]

Oh hell no.

If Microsoft dropped the ball THAT hard, I'd have to rename myself to PSXbudz

 

[gaming_noob]

If this is real, then I'm guessing it could be the logo for one of their new services.

 

[snoopeasystreet]

It looks like a crying Atari controller to me.

Kinect only confirmed.

 

[oVerde]

Lol no.

Well, Outside our GAF world most gamers don't know if Next Xbox is anything or nothing.

 

[eso76]

seems legit

 

[Iacobellis]

Looks real to me.

 

[Brofield]

So I've analzed the twitter account's profile picture and noticed it is not completely black - so I decided to alter the color curve:

White dots...

Let's say I'm a dunce. Do white dots mean fake or real? Or do they have any real basis in this rumour?

 

[IHaveIce]

seems legit

Fantastic!

 

[NemesisPrime]

Well, Outside our GAF world most gamers don't know if Next Xbox is anything or nothing.

They also don't need to know yet.

 

[Doug Heffernan]

Looks like something an anti-Microsoft troll would mock up...

 

[Alpende]

Looks like something an anti-Microsoft troll would mock up...

Let's hope so. I don't want a new way to play. A controller and games, thanks.

 

[PuppetMaster]

It looks like the X is getting a wedgie

 

[ekim]

Let's say I'm a dunce. Do white dots mean fake or real? Or do they have any real basis in this rumour?

I don't know... probably they mean nothing but in the end it's odd to see someone using such a picture for his profile.

 

[Takao]

That image in the OP reminds me of Lucky Charms for some reason.

They're magically delicious!

 

[statham]

seems legit

matches up with my leaked photo.

 

[TheNamelessOne]

The perspective is all fucked up...

My guess: "xbox" is pasted into the image by someone who can't adjust it according to the perspective.

 

[statham]

nice catch.

 

[pswii60]

According to its metadata, the image in the twitter feed / OP was exported from Adobe Photoshop CS 5.1 for Macintosh. This was done at 03:19AM on the 17th March - but strangely in the +11:00 time zone. Can't find any countries of note in that time zone except a few small islands. I think I should give up while I'm ahead

 

[eso76]

matches up with my leaked photo.

well, it's confirmed.

 

[ekim]

My guess: "xbox" is pasted into the image by someone who can't adjust it according to the perspective.

Now that you say it - the "xbox" really seems to be added afterwards - just look at the artifacts around the letters.

edit: well - I ran it through gimp and it looks like the "xbox" lettering was there when the photo was taken.

 

[War Eagle]

Why are all these pictures such low quality and taken at weird angles.

Controlled leak?

 

[MaulerX]

So, does VGleaks reporting on this "rumor" give it more credence?

this is how it starts. Now someone will post with that as a "source"

Not with "Mr. X" writing the article. I trust "Mr. H."

They don't know any insider information about this...they're just speculating.

pfff... acting as if they found that picture.

This will only get more entertaining as the day goes on.

I'm hoping the event on April 26 turns out to be true. Looking forward to seeing what MS has to offer.

 

[MaulerX]

Yea, they probably saw your thread and decided to write on it.

 

[Kouriozan]

Obviously fake, "new way to play" while using kinect 2.0

 

[sono]

This may mean the the next Xbox is called bo

(internet common naming practice : surround your name with any number of x's either side, eg. xxxWinkerxxx, in this case xbox )

 

[Concept17]

It going to be called 'Xbox' and be pushed as a 'platform'.

 

[Alx]

Obviously fake, "new way to play" while using kinect 2.0

That's what I was thinking too... even if kinect2 is bringing new things to the table, they won't say "introducing new ways to play" when kinect 1 has been "introduced" 3 years ago. Unless they have another "new thing" that we're not suspecting.

 

[Fine Ham Abounds]

The cutted line at the bottom seems to read like "what's next from xbox" and may imply that this shot is from the, yet to be launched, www.xboxevent.com site.

Source is this Twitter account :
https://twitter.com/BobExoX

Why does the logo look like an X being castrated and turning into a Y?

 

[Aquamarine]

It going to be called 'Xbox' and be pushed as a 'platform'.

I'd place money on that.

 

[SlickShoesRUCrazy]

but thats a circle, not a box.

 

[Meelow]

but thats a circle, not a box.

Xbox 720 name will be Xcircle confirmed!

 

[Raven77]

I can't WAIT for Microsofts "new way to play" if this is real!

I mean, KINECT was just so bad ass and fun!




The logo is an X AND a Y, signifying that they have full intent to focus on a new "target" audience, audience "Y" (aka not gamers).

Pure speculation.

 

[Arkham]

money

hatbox is round.

 

[EightBitNate]

That logo does NOT look powerful enough. Xbox 3 to be weaked confirmed.

 

[Keslord]

Smash Bros. 4 confirmed!

 

[Takuya]

Looks like a fake account created to try to gain some 'hype' for Durango.

 

[140.85]

Aww man a junior stole my avatar. ;P

I actually hope this is real for the entertainment value.

 

[SuperSonic1305]

That logo looks casual and non-gaming focused.

 

[Keslord]

Aww man a junior stole my avatar. ;P

I actually hope this is real for the entertainment value.

We're all FOXHOUND here.

Spoiler

Seriously though, I've never seen you before

 

[Mpl90]

Smash Bros. 4 confirmed!

Press Enter to Buy DLC :lol :lol :lol
