360 100 GB HD Bogus, Says Germany’s Herr Nelson

Yesterday, we posted about a grainy picture apparently announcing the 100 GB HD for the Xbox 360. A couple German 360 sites Spidey sense started tingling? Does that add up?

So they contacted Boris Schneider-Johne, Germany's Major Nelson. He says, via Babelfish:

Yes, about two and a half thousand people sent to me a link to that, in which one sees a photographed powerpoint slide, featuring a non removable disk on which someone stuck 100 GB in an Arial font.

Come on, you know Microsoft presentations. How many times have you been to GC? Would this company announce a product in such a ragged manner? Quote: No large non removable disk is announced.

So there you go. But the Germans have been known to be duplicitous.

Gro e Platten [Hope you read German!]
