Hey I found this (http://www.nextgame.it/html/screenshot.php?id=1672&tabella=articoli&i=0&referer=%2Fhtml%2Farticolo.php%3Fid%3D1672) on Arstechnica,can\'t read any of the text.But these are good pics,show alot of detail that the official ones don\'t have.
I posted it here instead of Console Debating because I\'m not debaiting the console :D,although the mods can move it later if they feel it necesary.
Anyhoo here are two pics

those are nice pics, gives you a good look at the beast
-
Yes,I found the controller pics to be very nice.MS only showed front and side pics of it.Nice to see the thing from behind (no not that way pervs ;))
The console looks kinda dirty on those pics though.
-
I hate the way they made the d-pad like the MS Sidewinder. I have one and the d-pad is a pain in the ass.
-
And not to mention the controller looks like the Sidewinder\'s and DC\'s bastard child.

What is up with this;
(https://psx5central.com/community/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.nextgame.it%2FImmagini%2Fmicrosoft%2Fspeciale-accarezzandoxbox...%2Fspeciale-accarezzandoxbox..._speciale_windows21.jpg&hash=eeca890210e08622e174d572c3509436f794793f)
why can you pull the cord apart?
-
Maybe to prevent wear and tear on the sockets in the BOX itself...
Maybe to make money by selling you another little cord for five bucks.. :D
BTW JC632X, if you think of something you want to add after you post, you can just edit it in, rather than waste a whole post....
-
I think the cables will last longer if we don\'t bend it and fold over the controller like we always do,a lot of storekeepers told me about this matter.This may be their solution?

There might be another reason.Instead of buying an extra wireless controller you could probably add an add-on on the controller where the cable should be that makes it wireless.But I think thats not a good idea because the controller add-on must be a bit big for the batteries and it might add some extra weight.But who knows...
-
I hate that big controller. Have you noticed the kinda right buttons (red, yellow..)? They´re up! My god... I hate it.
-
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH.....
uff ufff... DON´T YOU EVER SCARE ME AGAIN LIKE THAT !!!
Those pics are terrible... and that so early in the morning ! :D
-
:D :D :D Ugly pics ;)
-
About the cable thing i heard they did it like that,so if you pull the controler to hard the console wont move,it will on pull the controller out of that little wire.

Thats a really good idea and it makes the most sense. I like that they are using a lot of the gamers\' input.

XBox and the controller looks to be made of very cheap plastic.
You know the kind that gets yellow after a few years ;)
/FAST
-
Is anyone else goin to play the X-Box when M$ is on tour too? Im so exited! :D
-
whoa! weird lookin pics aren\'t they?
-
...I still can\'t get out of my head why Microsoft made the Xbox say friggin\' huge. My friend said he was going to buy an Xbox for sure, until I showed him the size compared to the PS2. He was laughing his a** off and asked me how that was going to fit into his theater system. Even the controller is half the size of the PS2...:rolleyes: I\'m sure it\'ll be awesome, nonetheless...

Yeah. I always thought it had a very dusty, cheap appearance but it must have something to do with the flash of the camera interacting with whatever material the Xbox is composed of.
-
I take it you all saw the pictures of the ps2 and xbox,side by side,if you look there the xbox looks really cheap,ps2 is the best looking console by far.
-
The X-Box is big because there has to be good airflow,the GPU has what 57million transistors and the core is running at 250Mhz,I\'ll be damned if the thing doesn\'t need active cooling+the P.III chip and the HD.These things heat up.
But that\'s what I think won\'t be nice about it,when you touch the PS.2 and hold it,it feels very stirdy,but I think the X-box might feel like it\'s empty inside because of the need for good airflow.However the controller looks stirdy to me,and I think ill be confy to hold (I liked the DC shape alot) and accourding to Firingsquad it\'s also very light.

Well they gotta fit that mobo somewhere. Damn thing has almost got the same footprint as a desktop case.

So the thread\'s name is
"Lot of Pics of the X-Box it self, detailed."
Um, you posted two pics. I bet you get lots of sex too.
sorry. couldn\'t resist.
-
lol :p
Follow the link I gave and thou shalt be rewarded.And because I didn\'t want to melt people\'s modem\'s (secretly laughing at the broadband impared) I only posted two pics.
And I prefer to keep info on my sex life off the internet thank you very much.
-
well if anything the apperance is not the reason i am interested in a xbox - thats for sure
but i think that it may be worthy after a year or two and thats how long i will wait to buy one
btw thanks for the pics no one and also considering people like me with 56k modems

No probs dood :)
And Videoholic,I decided to hide the link cuz posting it like this http://www.nextgame.it/html/screenshot.php?id=1672&tabella=articoli&i=0&referer=%2Fhtml%2Farticolo.php%3Fid%3D1672 just looks retarded.
*Edit* open the link and check your browser,these kinda links are very retardish
-
How do you hide the link and write something else. Also, to stay on topic. Whoever the photographer was really sucked. Could we have just a little more reflection from the flash?
-
Come on peeps, all things look crappy with a crappy camera + flash. Try taking a picture of your PS2 in the same way/light and you\'ll that it looks like cheap crap too. :)
BTW nO-One, I think I\'ll move this to off topic... it isn\'t really console debating, but it doesn\'t really belong in the main forum either. I hope you won\'t get too mad. :p

Whatever you want to write[ /url] you can find this in the vB code above.
And I don\'t mind Sammy ol\'chap,I wasn\'t sure where to post this,I considired to post it in OT but I thought because this was about a console I would either post it on Console debating or Main Forum.
But I am getting kinda confused what is supposed to be in the Main Forum.If it\'s news of another console it Console Debating.If it\'s not console related it\'s OT.If your asking game questions it\'s Hints and cheat\'s. (http://www.something.com)

I wouldn\'t care even if the X-box would be made out of cheap plastic, as if the box really has been done out of \'cheap materials\', it has been done for some purpose. Say, lowering the price perhaps?
From option of either Huge Price and pricy plastic
or Cheaper Price but cheaper plastic, I would take the latter ;)
Size doesn\'t matter, right? :)

Yeah, I know, it can be a bit confusing. I\'m not sure this was the best place to put it either. But well, here it is. :)
