| |
Xbox 360 (aka Xbox 2) Expected Release Date: Q3/Q4 2005.
The launch of the Xbox 360, the predecessor to the original Xbox gaming console, is approaching and images have begun to leak out onto the internet. The source of the leaked images is yet to be confirmed, but Microsoft is holding European partners and MTV as top suspects. Microsoft is targeting the MTV production team responsible for preparing the upcoming Xbox 360 preview which is planned to air internationally on May 12th. Neither Microsoft nor MTV have chosen to make any official comment on the dispute.
The two most accurate and generally confirmed leaked images to date are shown below. It may come as a surprise that one of the images appears to be a render, and it is. MTV's Xbox preview on May 12th may be utilizing rendered images rather than the actual Xbox 360 if a final product is unavailable.

| This front, corner shot shows that there may be a 40GB Hard drive inside this xbox 360 build. You can also see the disc drive on the right with the memory unit slot right below it. |

| Here is a nice render of the front panel of what may be one of the more stripped down Xbox360 builds. Remember that Microsoft plans to release 3 versions of its Xbox 360 console, all with varying degrees of accessories. |

| There's some speculation that those images might be fake. I'm not saying they are or they aren't, but that second one especially would be pretty easy to make. |

| They are definitely still rumored images. The second one is obviously a render, but there was some talks about MTV using renders rather than the real product if the real one wasn't ready yet (as mentioned). We'll have to see ^_^. I just hope its not the massive brick that the original Xbox was. |
