Please tell me to shut the F*@K up if it need it but i have just looked at the new pictures of the X BOX and heres what i think.
Educate me if i am wrong , because my blood is boiling.
Hmmmmmmmmmm Large Black Game box now where have we seen that before Microsoft ??!!??

is it just me or have we seen this style of controler before ? , a bit too close to the good old DualShock, and the Dreamcast controller with its 2 trigger buttons (SONY and SEGA could have a case on there hands)

right i can see Microsofts logic with this one, they where trying to make a console that would be reconised. So they wanted something big some thing biack and somthing with the logo dead center on top.

Thats what i think now its over to you lot.
do you think it is a rip off or is it me being paranoid again LOL.

Rip off. But so can you say about every product.
Dual Shock was a ripoff of N64\'s pad, for instance.
But I agree that Windows is just Mac OS ripoff...

Well, to be fair, the dualshock is still pretty much a regular sony pad but with the analog sticks.
They didn\'t come out with a totally new controller, just updated the old one.
