I got the same thing.

That's old, though. They've had those renders since it was announced.

looks like tasteless ass.

i always love it when a company says, all right guys, let's throw out everything we've elarned about style in the past 30 years and make a big awkward-looking hunk of p!ss that looks like a "counterstrike-style toaster."

I hope Sony and Nintendo keep bringing refreshing ideas to the forefront instead of making everything look like a half-assed sci-fi tv show prop.

actually, what this looks like is a cheap imitation of xbox styling. just replace black with grey and green with blue. they even went and used the same damn font for the logo. real original. microsoft wasn't the noes to invent the font, though... that font's been around for a while. i forget what it's called though. oh, but "to their credit" they changed around the P a little bit or something.

in my opinion, xbox's styling shouldn't be copied. you might think that neon-green-on-black color scheme is cool today while Matrix movies still run in theaters, but wait 6 or 7 years and the PS2 will still look elegant.. even the cube will look not that bad. the xbox with the big poofy shiny buttons and horrible use of space will probably go down in history as one of the uglier things we've created with plastic.

and that's a pretty ambitious to say... we've made a LOT of really ugly things with plastic over the years...

*tries to figure out how everyone knows how big it is by looking at the picture, with no comparisons* :unsure:

I myself still find it unnatractive though...

Very true, reminds me of a clock radio or something.

It looks like you can slice your wrists on the sides of the box. Still you guys have to admit that logo is pretty cool. Better then PS2, GameCube, and XBox logos.

If I was to make a console though, I would have a pirate as a logo. Everyone loves pirates!

I got the email today as well, and I will reserve my judgment untill i see this in action.

Honestly the thing can look like a damn microwave for all I care, if it kicks ass, that is all I care about.

I want a console that lets you download mods and addons and such! If this does it, i likely would not hesitate making it my next system. I'd like a good feature/specification page.
