If you ve watched any of the videos of the Microsoft press conference you may have noticed something unusual beautiful gamers. I m not saying gamers can t be pretty, but what are the odds that you d have two rows of pretty players sitting right behind the stage where Msoft s front men were pitching the 360? Not very good.

Fortunately, Microsoft didn t bet on the odds, instead they hired models/actors to beautify those two rows, smiling and clapping on cue, or so one source told me. Thing is, the presentation was riddled with awkward silences. Here s a tip for you Microsoft: Next time try getting pretty people who can actually read their cues.
