Looks fake, and doesn't really look like something microsoft would make, that looks more along the lines of something nintendo would make.

360..... sounds reasonable..... and the Gcube's designe is quite excellent considering..

I figure there is a good chance that is what it may look like, although i'm SURE it's 3D Modeled.... but hey, everything is 3D Modeled before being produced

i think it looks fake. Having something entirely flat would be better looking anyways.

Now I think that is mos-def fake, microsoft wouldn't come up with a cheesy idea like that with the drive opening like that.

Edit: Also the parts of the system you can see all look alike, which is very improbable, even with a 3d model, microsoft being such perfectionists wouldn't leave flaws like that.

Honestly... I 'm in love with it. I really do like it, I wouldn't mind if they design it, it's kinda wicked to me. I think it's look totally different than Gamecube, by the way it's dosen't show any port, maybe it's wireless (crossing my figure).

I'll buy xbox 2 anyways because I love the xbox game like Kotor, Fable, Halo, Unreal, Doom3 etc.

I got this from GameSpy the other day. Microsoft is going to include wireless controllers as a standard feature in the next Xbox.

great....more wireless crap. I mean, i don't mind not having any wires going through the whole place (it's actually pretty convinient), but i'm not too keen on any device being wirless due to connectivity issues.

The only thing i don't like about the Xbox controllers right now, is that the cords are too long. My Xbox is only like 3ft away from me, so the chords get all over the place and annoys me pretty bad. The wireless seems to be nice, but like i said earlier, i'm not too fond of wireless devices so i'll pass on that .

Wireless can be great - it just depends on who designs the device. The WaveBird is AWESOME - but the "Pelican" brand of wireless controllers for XBOX suck @$$.

Thanks to whoever "stole" my pictures from CGtalk or Storedyret and posted them as "the real deal".
It has made my design well known. As you all understand by now these are not the real Xbox360,
they are only my idee of it when I heard the name.
and you can see the proof Here: http://www.cgtalk.com/showthread.php?t=209184

actually.. YES they do and they do work to both your statements

Interconnected PCBs work no different then having a PCI sitting 90 degrees off the motherboard... don't we have that in every computer?

Using a combination of Massive slot and socket connections... you can design a cubed version of a motherboard rather easily.

Also, Virtically loaded cd/DVDs work without a hitch... but imo, if they mount it like that, they are just asking for problems with dust and or someone dumping crap down inside......

I like that XSphere. Unfortunately, if that was a real one (nice render, BTW) can picture that thing rolling around on the living room for after some winners get a little rowdy when they win in Halo 3.
