It sure is ugly.

[Null]

not ugly. nothing overly remarkable, but i like its simplicity.

definently better looking then Xbox tho.

[GameMaster]

Damn, that baby is big! There's enough room for me and twenty additional boys to tap that from the back! Camera is kind of big too. Looks the like ones they have in malls and parking lots to help prevent crime. I bet its fans are loud too. DO NOT stand it up as pictured. That is dangerous.

I have no complaints about the controller or headset. Hopefull this headset will be more durable, I heard a lot of complaints about the current headset breaking too easily.

[Ginkasa]

I like it... Sleek.


/me shrugs and walks away

[Bond]

It looks good, much better than the Xbox.

[Perfect Stu]

not a big fan, but it isnt hideous

[Jonbo298]

Better looking then the Xbox but could be better still

[Dark Samurai]

Looks like they went vertical style on it like the PS2... coincidence???

[DarrenMcLeod]

Meh. It's not as ugly as people make it sound, but I was expecting more.

Wireless, the crucial step from going from a gaming console, to the living-room multimedia center. Mothers no longer have to scream at kids because there are cords tangled together stretching across the floor, or because they ran a 300' ethernet cable from the living room, down the stairs, across the basement, and to the cable modem on the other side of the house. Now gaming consoles will be welcome in the living room, where we can watch our movies, record live TV, stream music from our PCs, and display slideshows all on one device.

But they forgot about one group yet again, the gamer. What happens when my battery dies half-way through a turn in the final lap of the endurance race? What happens when my battery dies and I find out I have no more? What happens when we go to gaming tournaments, and there's more controllers in a small room then there are channels to select? What happens when my controller breaks and I'm short on cash because game costs are rising that I can't afford $40 controllers?

Wireless controllers are great. A 802.11g network card is great. But you should always have a backup. So my question is, where are the controller ports?

Where's my Dreamcast? :unsure:

[bobcat]

I don't like it

[Happydude]

i don't like it either...they should have stayed with the green & black theme...the shape is better than the XBox though, that's for sure.

[Neo]

It doesn't look finished.

[Teuthida]

*jitters* I know there are faceplates coming but I think I wanna get one just to give it a nice paintjob. A nice huge glow-in-the-dark 'X' on the sides.

I like the green spiral version the most

So my question is, where are the controller ports?



I dont like wireless, i'd prefer not to deal with it. i dont know why i'd ever need to take my controller that far away from the console

However what i would like. is a wireless controller, but have a cord that you can choose to keep off, or decide to plug into the controller and other end into the console if you prefer.


OR, at the very least, put a rechargable battery in the controller, and come with a cord you can plug it directly into any wall socket. wire wont go across the living room, perhaps theres a power outlet next to the couch.

i prefer the first option. but if it has to be wireless, i'd like an option to make it wired in some way, without having to have a seperate controller.

So it's wireless by default?

Let me guess you can only buy MS batteries charged at $20 a pair.
And you need 5 pairs to run one controller

[Vampyr]

There should be some sort of dock to set the controller in.

[Joeiss]

If I get a wireless controller.. I know I am going to lose it some how....

I love wires.

[Stray_Bullet]

I didn't like the second little wire of the old controllers. I lost 'em :unsure:

Wireless is a little better.
