the first console image is pretty cool, but the logo is goofy. Dont know if these are official or something someone mocked up on their own.

Hmm…I’d think someone made those up…The logo’s are kinda stupid indeed.

The first one looks like a modem or an intercom, the second like a big lock or an armored case or something :beam:

Why did everyone make fun of the Gamecube handle, if this leaked design also has one?

well one guy in the comments said its not it. But I love the handle on the GC. Of course its only so useful because the GC is as small as it is. I couldnt see a handle working so well with the current xbox for example.

that’s the thing though it’s “leaked”. I have the strangest feeling it’s not entirely real. 😉

Nah, the real xbox2 is probably WAY cooler. And without a plastic handle, because they’re useless and unergonomic (is that a word?). But of course, that’s just my hopes.

How many people would actually go carrying their Xbox around a lot, and even if they do, they wouldn’t carry it around without putting it in a box or a sac or something…would they? :sigh:

Guys let’s not assume anything. Those images look like 3D renders by some newbie idiot trying to get attention. I don’t think microsoft would change the logo…how come the F5 one is the same on as it is now?

Just like how PS1 and PS2’s logo are the same. And come on, microsoft has great designers, something that looks like a bunch of clay thrown together would be stupid to use. Even the freakin’ xbox console box it came in was great :).

I hope they blow us away though :thumb:.

Haha microsoft would buy nintendo. [http://gaming.engadget.com/entry/7550113800266434/](http://gaming.engadget.com/entry/7550113800266434/) - I doubt the guy would do that though. Didn’t microsoft buy out sega?

Last thing I heard a few days ago was that they didnt make the case for it yet… from my understanding that have been doing testing with the modded hardware inside mac g5 cases because they havent even completed the xb2’s os yet… just what Ive heard ;p

ps Ive seen that thing in the third picture of the first thread with the handle before… that was a toshiba japanese version DVD player so it definatly is not an xbox
