Now the kid is begging to get the thread deleted (maybe he found out what an NDA is), but the cat is already out of the bag. Apparently his step dad just started working for Microsoft under the title of Regulatory Compliance Manager, and is currently hardware testing the Xbox 360. The wires coming out the top are for such testing. The hardware is apparently complete, and although there were no 360 games to test, he gave Halo 2 a spin in backwards compatibility. He is claiming the power supply is external, and is enourmous. He also raved about the user interface/dashboard and the feel of the controller (and this coming from an admitted PlayStation fan, so it must be good).
You are a damn lucky kid, but I hope you didn’t just cost your step dad his new job.

Could that possibly be a fake? If the kids dad works for microsoft he is makin money... and my computer screen is bigger then the TV he was playin on... and the screen shot of the xbox 360 logo is poor quality.. I dont have photoshop on here.. but give it to me.. and I could make that in 30 seconds.... Just a thought... P.S. Playstation Rocks Xbox's world any day...

Well, it's not like I go out of my way to play it. BorDumB gets together and we play multiplayer and we're funner than the damn game. Just the shit talking and such, but really, that happens with almost any game. This one just has a lot of headshot jokes.
