I got a sneak peak at the 360 last night. It is beautiful and the games should be amazing. The graphics are incredibly smooth, especially when compared to the first generation Xbox that was sitting right next to it. In true Microsoft fashion however, the machine had more than its share of glitches that still need to be worked out. After standing transfixed for 30 minutes, the reps finally got the machine working and some people were able to play a racing game. I just stood there transfixed. Finally I ran out of wine and walked away.
The machine should go on sale November 22 and will have two price points: $299 w/o a hard drive, and $399 with. Hopefully they'll be in better condition than their current prototypes.
Let me just say one last time, the graphics are sleek. Virtually no pixelation anywhere. Beautiful.
