Xbox360 video at OurColony - First official Info - Xbox 360 Watercooled!
>> The MTV show 'Xbox360 Unveiling Show' goes life on MTV USA in about 30mins (update: Show is already over now (USA/CAN)) ... but the teams at the Alternate Reality Game OurColony.net get the 'premiere'. The first official Xbox360 is out - and it confirms pretty much everything we knew so far, the 'Xbox360' name, the Xbox360 logo, the wireless cotrollers, the specs, the skinnable front plates, the look and design of the console, contoller and much more.
What's unexpected: Watercooled CPUs! When you thought that leaks would have told you everything there is to know, think again :)
   They even show the Xbox360 motherboard :)
Check out the full video: Stream video here, Download High Quality 750k version, Download Low Quality 300k version.
For all the non-believers, Lex Luth.. euhm I mean J. Allard and other Microsoft guys are in the video - confirming this video is real/official and OurColony.net was really an ARG organised by Microsoft. Njoy :)
Also note some people are playing current-generation Xbox games on the Xbox360 in this video (MX vs. ATV Unleashed and Halo 2), this could mean that, at least in the testing stage, it is backwards-compatible. BBC and nwsource report a Microsoft executive said they hadn't yet determined whether the new Xbox 360 would be backward compatible. Microsoft is aiming for backwards compatibility but is still facing technical difficulties (because of the move from Intel x68 to an IBM PowerPC CPU and from a Nvidia to ATI gfxcard). Analyst Michael Pachter says the situation may come down to whether Microsoft is able to license patented technology from one of the processor vendors for the original Xbox.
The video also confirm the 'ring of light' (logo button) on the controller will be used to switch the UI/Dashboard.
