Another way Microsoft has decided to screw over it's early buyers (like me) if this is true:

If the rumours going round the 'net are true, then Microsoft is to release a new style Xbox in the UK.

"The unit will be a retail version of the translucent green debug hardware that specialist press, developers and publishers already have access to, but which has hitherto been denied to Joe Public. The green console, which will also release with a special green version of Controller S, will be a welcome addition to the Xbox family."

The move is another prong in Microsofts publicity and advertising push in the lead up to Christmas.

Why couldn't they have given us this style to start off with? I like this new version, and would have much rather had it than the version we were given at launch.

What are your thoughts?

P.S Cheers Microsoft!

I hate green anyway, so I'd rather have a black one. It still does the same thing, so I see no problem. I would rather have had the Controller-S though!
