Doesn't really paint a rosy picture at all. And notice how London Studio is so beautiful on screen? Believe it.

I'm sorry, but those hoodie guys made me laugh with their "expert analysis". ;-))

Thought it was a bit strange at points, especially the people they talked too.
Think the best view came from the youngest of the little kids.
Some strange bits about the console too, the whole picture sharing and music playing just seems a bit pointless for a console. You really going to be wanting to share pics with folk you play games online with?
Oh and those snap on front things - did the guy say they would be over £40?

No the faceplates will be £14.99. Still too much money for a piece of plastic.

Most of my Crash 'n' Burn clan have already done the same stuff on their site and who hasn't heard one game tell another to check out various naughty pictures on the web.
There's certainly an element who'll use it. Either for clans or for stuff MS probably don't want them to.
The music-player thing's just standard now.

He was talking about the 49.99 rrp of games, although obvious the stores'll knock those down since most Xbox games are still technically 49.99 direct from the publisher - it just never works out that way thanks to bulk purchases.

Hmmm. Thought he (Peter Moore?) was talking about the face-plates being 14.99.
Unless I've got the wrong end of the stick...

Might've been.
I'm talking about the bit where someone in the background quietly asks the bearded guy about game prices.

Gah! I know.
