ahem…there IS going to be an xbox 360, black. it will be black. comes standard with 120 gigabyte hard drive, and i think the hd drive allready installed. it will retail for $599.99, and released into stores around april.
micro-boring is releasing it to compete with the rising dominance of the ps3. making every one that worked for microsoft, and was braggin on thier lower prices, look like a totall lying jerk. so you pay the same ammount of money, for the same functionality, only xbox charges to play on-line, and all the games suck really bad.
so have fun with that.

Ben Furfie those test kits are dark grey not black. You can get whites ones too.

I’ve uploaded an image of a 360 from xbox.com with the image inverted beside it.

Black Xboxs do exist. Magazines have them, some websites have them and free journalists have them but they are for journalist only since they only play unsigned code. They don’t play retail games, just preview code hence how magazines can review games before they have been checked by Microsoft.

I’ve used them in the past both for interviews and for producing content and its no big deal, I don’t have one myself though so don’t ask. To be honest, once you’ve seen it in the flesh it’s nothing special and while i’ll agree with some of the posters above that I prefer black electronics to white or silver ones, you realise that Microsoft made the right decision with releasing it white only.

A while back either in EGM or OXM in the rumor section they mentioned that a black X360 with DirectTv and a bigger HDD was in the works. This could be it. I dont think its inverted, why does the HDD look normal color?

15GB? Why would it have a smaller hard drive?

Well, the ad itself cycles through a couple different pictures including a PSP with speakers, a slim PS2, and a 360 controller (regular white). So it’s a general gaming ad but they weren’t being generic with the pictures.

Infact, if you do Invert the colours, it does look pretty much normal.

OXM confirmed that is is coming, check out last weeks OXM podcast.

Included HDDVD drive and 15GB HD so I heard. I would rather have a black one!

If they launch a black 360 with a bigger harddrive, i’m gonna buy one. They should have launced the 360 in black and white.

its inverted, 100% guarantee. i work with photo retouching, and its clear to me but anyone can see its inverted. just a stupid idea from the bestbuy head office

If anyone has seen the new Toshiba product catalogue there is a black console on one of the pages talking about HD and it looks a lot like a black 360

or even PS360 - think that would sound better. Although this is prob the name for the PS3 - 360 combo

May I ask..why would you want a 360 in a original Xbox??? - Do you like having big ugly consoles. I have one, and for years i’ve been saying “It’s not that bad”….but now i know it is

Very well spotted, dude. I agree with you.

For what it’s worth, I’ve got a black 360 via the ‘wonder’ of a vinyl skinning kit, because I *hate* white electronics.

Yes but that also voids your warranty and they wont even let you pay them to repair it. But a black Xbox 360 would be awesome!!! Too bad I already got a 360 :’(.

To really piss me off, Microsoft would release a black xbox 360 with a built in hd-dvd drive, wifi, and bundled with a 60 gig hard-drive. what would said package be called? The Playstation 3 fightin-bundle.

it’d be 600 bucks.

hre’s a crazy idea, maybe they are advertising video games in general and didnt want to show favorites with the common systems, so they just gave a hot item a painted it a different color. Notice there is no sign of get in the game with xbox, and the picture doesnt even have anything remotely close to xbox on the system. It’s just best buy advertising gaming. Thats just my crazy idea though
