Gamesindustry.biz = eurogamer = the link at the start of this thread.
Also happens to be the same site that confirmed that NewsCorp was buying Eidos.

So the Xbox360 is gonna look like a shoe horn from the front.

That just looks like a DVD player, or even a VCR just with the colors changed. There aren't even controller ports....

Aren't the controllers going to be wireless?
That's not a bad looking mock there. I like it. I PRAY that it has that type of loading for discs. Top-loading and tray drives are so 90's.

Could it be?
Interesting thought indeed.

Well they certainly like to show the controller off a lot.
Looks like a more refined Controller Type-S, which isn't a bad thing at all!

I'd say fake as well. If you go to http://www.ourcolony.net/gamem8ker/index.html it's not there.
And why screengrab it? It's not flash, you can just pull out the URL of each picture. Which would be more convincing because you'd know it was on the ourcolony server then.
People have just linked to all the previous 'secret' images.
Edit: The gap between the pics is wrong as well.

Well if this is anything like those PGR3 pics, the URL was only available for about 3-5 minutes after you solved the puzzle so I'd imagine a screengrab is the way to go.

It's an image related to the game Still Life. Look at the 4th wallpaper here:

This has got to be one of the funniest things I have ever had the grace of reading on the internet.
Having said that, I believe the XBox 360 isn't trying to imply that they're back where they started - more like they have 'come full circle', starting a new cycle, the end onf one thing, the start of another. Which what I think Sysgen is trying to demonstarte. However, that has nothing to do with it being black or white.

From the absolute astronomy encyclopedia
A degree of arc, usually symbolized by the symbol °, is a measurement of plane angles or of a location along a great circle of a sphere such as the Earth or the celestial sphere); it represents going one-360th the way around the circumference of a circle or sphere.
The number 360 was probably chosen because it is divisible by 24 positive integers, including every number from 1 to 10 except 7. (For the number of degrees in a circle to be divisible by every number from 1 to 10, there would need to be 2520 degrees in a circle, which is a much less convenient number).
My comments:
The term 360 is abstract and open to interpretation. Many use it as turning 360 degrees on an axis. Others also use the term to indicate going full circle across a time continuum.
I was referring to the latter interpretation when I made this post:
Given absolutely no benefit of the doubt and without consideration that only an infant would not know that turning 360 degrees on an axis would visually yield the same color object this forum maliciously ambushed me. I submit that it is of the most simplistic minds that are capable of this behavior.
The misunderstanding of the post is not an excuse for what transpired. I explicitly made it clear after being confronted with the startling revelation that black is 360 degrees from black that I was referring to Microsoft coming full circle (or 360 degrees, as in traveling an abstract continuum) in that the company is now launching a new console. The context of the thread to this point was that the new console may be white. I stated in another post was that Microsoft bore a console in 2001 and that they will launch one in 2005.
A span of 4 years. The encyclopedia I cite refers to the term 360 as:
The term 360 is also divisible by 4 years. I tried to use the concept of time to quiet the frenzied mob but to no avail and I was shouted down for my analogy.
I was insulted with outbursts of even a kindergartener would know the difference. Did these idiots think that I did not know the difference looking at a black box, turning 360 and not knowing that I would be looking at a black box?
To the posters that attacked me your minds need to grow. You need to listen and to give a person the benefit of the doubt and you need to think for yourselves. Whether obvious or not, a deeper or alternate meaning may be implied. Just because a person in authority doesn't think doesn't mean that you have to follow suit.
I never said this. Would the admin have not been wiser, as a moderator to ask for an interpretation, given the obvious nature of this post before insulting me and throwing me to the wolves? I think so.
It's almost funny. I see the new DVD at amazon.com "MODS GONE WILD". In response to this I would like to note that I took the high road. I believe as I still do that bishoptl was so off base, so not in the ballpark, that he slid into first base only there was no game. He missed the game, he missed the boat, he missed the fucking point and it would of been very easy for me to respond in kind. I didn't though in an attempt to present my argument. I have never in my years posting on the internet been referred to as this by anyone, especially a mod. It is shameful and in retrospect it is totally unwarranted. Mods have responsibilities. They regulate their boards to keep order and to keep posters who make these kinds of posts off of them.
Gaming-Age is the best gaming forum on the internet. It is unequaled in it's member population. I enjoy the forum and for the most part I enjoy the people. Their variance in gaming tastes makes the forum what it is. Without these people the forum does not exist. The members are the forum, not the mods. The mod should be the cop. Shoot first and ask questions later should not be their modus operandi.
