Well, I knew there was someone out there who liked it. Big Halo fan, I'm guessing?Ploid 3.0 said:That futuristic green xbox looks pretty cool. They should have had a cold steel color though. Maybe a new faceplate will do the trick. I like the orange parts.

well, that should drive sales through the roof until they actually announce it a few months down the road.shinsnake said:MSFT declined to say when the price cut will take effect, but it won't be at this week's E3 games conference. Just this week, Sony (SNE, 52.13) announced it had lowered the price of the Playstation 3 console, which has lagged behind both the Wii and Xbox, by 17% to $499 from $599 in the US.

They say:
Microsoft plans to lower the Xbox to $299 from $479 to increase sales and lure in non-traditional customers not interested in the pure gaming aspect of the machine. Comparatively, a Wii costs $249. The price cut will give Xbox an advantage in the North American market, where consumers have a choice of consoles to play the same game. The September launches of Halo 3 and Grand Theft Auto IV are expected to be key events for the Xbox.

Your kidding right?Nexus Zero said:**** the naysayers, I think this will work in Microsoft's favour. By painting controllers pink they are broadening the market and introducing new people to games.
besada said:My wife would kill for that controller, but she also wants a pink 360 to replace her existing white box. Get on it, Microsofties!
