Default XBOX 360 Zephyr

Any new NEWS regarding this new version?

There's a rumor that the XBOX 360 will likely drop in price $100 by years end.

black .. hmmm, I haven't heard that - but, a black one would look better :up:

My brother recently purchased PS3 .. and, let me just say that I'm glad it wasn't me. :down:

I want an XBOX 360 with HDMI!

PS. My kids are XBOX fanatics .. I'm just trying to stay up-to-date for them.
I did reserve HALO for them.

Sounds interesting but I expect it will be a dissapointment like all the worked-up consoles are once they are released...

Actually, the "Zephyr" is pretty much just speculation right now.

Latest news from OXM (AFAIK):
http://www.oxm.co.uk/articles/news/h...elease_planned


[EDIT]
Also found this, but again.. Microsoft state it should be treated as "rumour and speculation".

The Xbox 360 has been able to hook up to a monitor since launch..

I'm using my PC monitor for some addictive HD gaming.! =D

I was joking .

It always gets me when these next gen systems come out with some add-on and everyone talks about how 'they are the first'. Does the 360 even support a keyboard/mouse combo yet (native?), I know they have adapters but they are awful for halo (the mouse is just seen as an analog stick...and is just as bad).

I was playing FPS games on a console with a keyboard/mouse combo online over a dial-up connection with a 200ms ping in 2000. So I guess I don't see a reason to upgrade yet.
