because, you know the RRoD wasn't caused by lack of air circulation or anything, so lets make it smaller.
Rumor: Xbox 360 Slim in Production
- Thread starter Tom Goldman
- Start date
Assuming it is, if I ever get another broken Xbox (after the slim comes out), I'm gonna ***** to MS til I get a slim one, and suggest everyone does. And if they don't give me one, I'll just buy a PS3. I have an Xbox with a broken disc drive, so I'll still be able to talk to my friends. I got an MW2 360, and it runs amazing, so I hope it never comes to this.SendMeNoodz84 said:

Hahaha. Microsoft just noticed that they're a bit behind technologically with their console. And in a possible attempt to remind consumers that they still exist, they're going to do the same thing they've been doing for years: Copy their competition. Good job Microsoft! Whoo!
As long as it works out Microsoft will probably have struck gold. If it ever does come out people can consider the RRoD problems permanently eradicated.
You know what? I'd buy a slim version of the 360 if the RROD problem was solved by the new design.
But i wont be suckered into thinking this slim console is nothing but a hoax at this stage

I don't mind the size of the x-box but what I do hate though is the massive power brick that goes with it. The PlayStation 3 Slim doesn't use a huge power brick like the x-box 360 does which I am grateful for.
I will admit though that I do prefer the large power brick compared to all the cables my PC has.

For all the shit that Apple gets, they usually nail the design department. Their products look good, altough I know what you mean when you say it looks like Apple.Daystar Clarion said:Why do I get the impression that if Apple were to ever make a console, it would looks like that piece of uninspired crap.ma55ter_fett said:What an ugly piece of hardware.Jamash said:This make sense if this rumoured photo of the 360 Slim is to be believed.Tom Goldman said:
Apart from it's smaller size, the most obvious features are 3 USB ports but no MU slot or apparent place for an external X-Box 360 HDD.
The extra USB port on the front and the recent announcement of USB storage support seems to address this problem somewhat, IF this photo is genuine.
Seriously that looks... words fail me, it is the worst looking console (well console remake) I have ever seen.
This Slim looks horrible. It could be fake, a mock up, who knows. The lack of shape, unpolished finish, ugh. I know cheap products are supposed to be kind of small and cheap looking for consumers to get it, but that design goes a million miles to far. Let's hope the block shape doesn't turn out to be inspired by the Wii design. The PS3 Slim ended up looking a lot better too after it was actually revealed than from the early photos, so there's hope to that.

You could drop a charging bull by smacking it in the had with a 360.
But you DID say relatively light, compared to a neutron star this thing is basically air.
However the new Mauve Ring of Death is going to infuriate the masses.MercurySteam said:
Have they got rid of the rrd, given it a 250gb hdd, made it quieter, faster, and push it just a little bit more. Then I'll be more interested. But if it's only to make it a size zero then it's a bit pointless. the system is feeling old. Making it slimmer isn't going to do it. The thing needs to tone up, not just loose a few lb's.
