Apparently some kid who's father works for Microsoft got his hands on a 360 already!  Proof:

And I have the original pics saved in case they get deleted in any of the links I provided above:

Pic 1

Pic 2

Pic 3

This is very real and the kid even went as far as posting a pic of his father's work ID (that pic I can't find anymore).  Whether this is another ourcolony type thing or not is unknown. :shocked:




Do you think this is true or do you think that this is a hoax?


The pics look real, but the light of the 360 is not on.

It looks pasted, the first pic, i mean the x360 looks pasted.

Good Eye Dan, you are most certainly Correct. Notice how it dosen't indent(sp?) the carpet, I mean the Xbox.
In my opinion, it's fake.

I can't be true, In the screen when you see him plays Halo 2, Microsoft said that you won't be able to play Xbox games on the 360. So it must be a fake

They made it official that all online games for the xbox will be playable for the 360.
But I dunno I think it's a fake but ain't it illegal to get stuff like that before the offical release date?

What about that controller in his hand though?

You do have a point there, but if the 360 Site has one of those view things whre you can move the controler around and see different angles, the controler would be easily made to fit into that picture.
(EDIT) Ahhh yes the site does.

Well, I reckon the 360 is way lighter than the first Xbox, and their carpet probably isn't all that thick. Also take note that the 360 casts a proper shadow, and the lighting on the box comes from the screen.

It's also been confirmed that, at the very least, you'll be able to play some of the best selling Xbox games on 360. I don't think it's fake. And the kid is stupid for posting his dad's ID. I see'm as a moron. :p

The announced that it is backward compatible to the highest selling game. and Halo 2 is one of them.

God wow, stupid kid. XBox 360 will release in time people.... his dad will likely get let off.

Rush - July 22, 2005 02:32 PM (GMT)
If he could get his hands on the 360, why wouldnt he get his hands on a new game? Hes playing Halo 2, and I heard you cant play Xbox games on the 360.

Mills McDougle - July 22, 2005 03:54 PM (GMT)
Well, for starters, there're no games released for it. :yes: And besides that, hardware testers don't need new games to test their hardware if previous games test it fine.
