Let’s hope this doesn’t overheat or get the 3 red rings of death. I’m sure they’ll fix those problems for this release

Sorry, I’m an idiot.

Its a mock up, idiot.
There’s barely just been confirmed reports of its existence and you expect pictures?

“but know we now see that this rumor was actually wrong.”

ouch, my head!

i like how microsoft is going the same route that sony went when they came out with their “slim” version of the ps2. very original, microsoft.

Ok….. can you not see that this is a blatant mock up picture based around the look of the slim line PS2 just to add substance to the rumour? Also, 2 things. Sony have stolen alot more ideas from its competitors than Microsoft has and making slim versions of consoles isn’t really a Sony thing. I’m not sure which console did it first but does anyone remember the Mega Drive 2?

graphicartist2l5,

being original is for fruits. the sooner you learn that the better.

xbox360-slim over ps2slim ANY DAY.

yay lets waste time re-engineering a dying system.

it’s getting too old now - it’s time for the next gen release.

failbox 360 fanboys lol It’ll probably be shipped out the door with known flaws, MS will bribe everyone into keeping it quiet, it’ll have a 50% fail rate, violate our privacy even more, and introduce some lame ass feature than only obsessive xbox ass lickers will care about. Honestly, what is the appeal of a console that has that many problems? All my experiences on Live tell me that the majority of online gamers are 13 year olds who need to be shot or 40 year old virgins who need to get laid. Then, there’s all the crap about how much better the remote is designed, are you FUCKING kidding me? The 360 remote is a slightly redesigned PlayStation remote. They swapped a directional pad and a stick, changed the shape of the shoulder buttons (call them triggers and it proves you rape little boys on the subway), made the thing fatter, and viola, you have a knock off.

really lawl?

do you really need to flamebait so much?

By your logic everyone has ripped off nintendo since they all buttons and some sort of direction pad/stick.

Please try to make a little sense in your bashing and atleast mention the lies Sony told about the inability to use rumble with motion sensing or their blantant disregard for patent laws when they used the rumble technology for years in the ps2 without paying royalties.

“The 360 remote is a slightly redesigned PlayStation remote”

the playstation remote is a redesigned SNES remote, they jsut added joysticks. D-pad, 4 button layout (Microsoft even kept the lettering when re-ripping off a ripoff) with shoulder buttons.,

Bah, fuck all you whiners, Who cares if it’s a “ripoff” of someone else’s controller, they’re just trying to give us a familiar feel.

Controller = D-pad… good. Joystick(s)… good. 2 buttons… not enough lets add a couple more… good. People have more fingers than just a couple thumbs so let’s let them use their index fingers on some shoulders… cool beans. Other fingers? busy holding up the controller.

Ok lawl,

That is like blaming laptops for copying off of desktop computers and cramming in smaller parts.

I am wondering if you have every heard of Moores’ Law. Look it up and it will explain why this is happening.

Actually this is bound to happen because better technology, (actually because of transistors if you are considering Moores’ Law) MS and any company for that matter will either do price cuts, (which MS is doing anyway) or replace and or shrink their hardware to fit in a smaller space.

This has nothing to do with MS, everyone will do this, cars, cellphones, computers –> laptops you name it. Cram more into a smaller space and or charge less money, etc.

I am not 100% sure but I think

The controller has always been that way since its original inception on the Xbox 1. The “Duke” (MS’s HUGE XB1 controller) had no resemblances to any other consoles controller aside form it’s # of buttons. When they came out with the controller “S” they admitted themselves that it took inspiration from the dreamcast controller for its new shape and enhanced “trigger-like” feel for the bottom shoulder buttons.
I mean really here, im not even an MS fanboy, i could care less as i own all 3… but if you’re going to flame, at least make some solid points. No console is going to have a 50% failure rate.
You may also want to acknowledge that the 360 actually SHIPS with both HD cables and a headset at least… you know so you actually CAN talk to people online without having to buy something extra…
SONY- “The next generation starts when we say it does. Oh HD?? that’ll cost extra. Headset? extra.”
In closing, if you’re really that upset about getting that reality check that OMG! 13 year old play games!!, then try getting some friends together and party up like everyone else. At the very least, god forbid you should have to press an extra button to mute the asshat.

I totally agree with lawl. He speaks truth, not flamebait. I mean, come on, have you ever OWNED a 360 and had to call microsoft and speak to “max” their fucking peppy computer recording to help you deal with your red rings of death! Their bad hardware cost them literally a billion dollars to write off, but they’re microsoft so they don’t give a shit.

OK, except for the part about calling the shoulder buttons triggers.

For the record, I’m on my third x-box, from red-ringing. OF course it got all fucked up with my saves and games and accounts each time I sent it in.

So let’s all take a deep breath, and be reasonable and say that YES, it’s possible they’ll ship a new “slim 360″ that has a bunch of problems, and is a piece of shit. (How many years did they work on the original 360 BEFORE production, and then they still shipped a totally flawed piece of shit.

I’m smiling right now. Don’t get all wrapped up in this stupid forum shit, fanboys/trolls!

I am not 100% sure but I think MS might actually be making money on their hardware sales now, which they could be reallocating or using in their price cuts. This is a big deal cause not too many companies actually make money off their hardware but their software.

Also trashing xbox live, hmm, that is not really smart, there are I believe over 12 million 13 year olds and 40 year old virgins out there. That really makes a huge difference. I made most of my purchases cause of Live, and MS is taking a huge step in giving access to the masses to not only connect, but to develop with C# and XNA.

This was only a dream long ago. Go ask sony how much their production systems cost compared to MS’s. I am not a fan of MS, but I think they really did a good job when it came to LIVE.

Also to be honest with you the average gamer is in their 30’s, who have families and have little time to play so XBLive is a really nice feature.

lawl is the master of the obvious and champion of the stupid

[...] Xbox 360 Slim Is Really Real (Game Center Online) [...]

Sony has not stolen more ideas than Microsoft. Take your mouse for example, Microsoft stole the idea of a graphical UI for the computer system, they cheated several companies to get where they are today. Get your information straight before you go posting idiotic rants

This is an excellent article , I’m grateful to you , thanks a lot .

Sorry to say but this is still just a rumor. Xboxfanboy.com emailed Major Nelson to ask him about it but he said he didn’t even know that there was an event in India. So if there’s not even event there then nothing could have been announced. I’m not saying that there won’t ever be an xbox slim…just not an official announcement yet.

Meant to say xbox360fanboy.com in my earlier post.

I don’t think there’s a need to release a slim version of the Xbox 360. I don’t think the device itself is obtrusive enough to warrant the making of a slimmer one. They should keep making the ones they already having and stop coming out with a plethora of options.

lol its just a modded ps2 slim well to me because i brought my old ps2 slim out compared them 2 my 360 and the possibility of that and no its just a modded ps2 slim some guy wants 2 make a rumor like the GOW movie….

oh yeah and lawl umm your trying to make xbox live gamers sound like little kids or old virgins but your lawl so most apperently your some wow nerd oorrrr a 4chaner with no life face of acne and looks at porn all day?

sorry on my apparently english isnt great

That looks pretty slick. Can’t wait to have it as part of the collection!

lol. I would be surprised they actually figured a way to reduce the heat when their normal sized Xbox 360 is still overheating for some. I bet this is just a rumor.

people. wake up! it does not matter if it’s slim or not because it still sucks…

[...] 360 Slim is Really Real (apparently) This from gamercenteronline: At a recent event held in Delhi, Microsoft India revealed some very key information on the future [...]

[...] Source: GameCenter [...]

i still wouldnt buy it it looks extremely dumb an it would overheat this is the most retarded thing ever

uh n o matter what the xbox sucks even if this is fake it is still an EPIC FAIl of mass purportion

But can it run Crysis?

you all think this is real, god you must be thick, look at it, its a cross between a ps2 and a nintendo wii.

if they were going to announce a new product it would be in the usa not india, its obviously a rumur which is incorrect, the xbox 360 had a code name which was used for the years upto its release this one has not.

open your eyes,, its nothing new just another lie

for christ sake , look at the thing u burnt shit gay faces. Its a slim ps2 and a wii put 2gether on photoshop. This image was used in T3 gadget magazine claiming to be a slim ps3 preview. This is a load of bullshit , for all those that agree that this isnt true then well done your not a burnt shit gay face. All you muppets that think its a slim xbox 360 then go suck a horse off. Putting 360 components into a slim design would make the over heating worse than ever.
