    While I think it's retarded to ban people for exploiting a pretty simple glitch, I am happy that MSFT is policing up IW's mess.

    Could someone explain to me how one could be attracted to a computer generated model?

    @SirFragsAIot: The same reason people are attracted to paintings and sculptures, they are both the physical and (if they are good) the emotional representation of a human.

    @SirFragsAIot: instinctual attraction....

    if it looks like a woman, talks like a woman, appears to be a woman... then there is an obvious attraction....

    @SirFragsAIot: the same way someone could like costume play, anthropomorphic animals, blood, poop, giraffes, and Santa. everyone has different preferences, and while you might not enjoy it, it doesnt really make them any more "wrong". just makes them their own person =)

    I actually liked the elevator conversations the characters would have, and hearing news on the Citadel Station. I guess I'm weird.

    @Aidan_: I agree. I kept mum on it because they really were pretty long rides sometimes, but I really enjoyed the casual conversation and news deal while on them. It gave the game more life.

    But I certainly understand why they've kicked them out, too. There was pretty vocal grumblings over it. We're the minourity.

    I know I'm the minority here, but I didn't find the elevator parts in Mass Effects to be all that torturous. I'll admit they were long, no denying that, but people are reacting like they'd rather pull their eyes out than have to sit through an elevator ride. Most of them were filled with contextual radio chatter, or dialog between teammates, so I wasn't too upset.

    I dunno, I wouldn't mind seeing a long elevator ride in the sequel. I think it'd be freaking hilarious to see everyone so butthurt over again.

    Um, you forgot the back and the bottom of the 'case'. Wow, all these daft after-market fans. If your 360 is going to melt, it will do it anyway believe me.

    What I would like to know is where you would stand legally if you purchased and fitted something like this, and then the console RROD'd. Could you make the fan company pay up? Well why not? They said that with their product bolted on everything would be fine!

    So, what's next? A box with an air conditioner attached to put your XBox 360 in? Server case?
    This not only looks ridiculous, but also seems to make the problem even worse.

    So wait, it blocks the USB ports, it blocks the Controller Sync button, it blocks whatever them other slots are for...

    Oh wow, what a way to completely make your silly cooling box prototype completely unpractical. Back to the drawing board.

    @James Henderson: That's what I was thinking when the new faceplate went on. My guess is the unnecessary blue ring and fans are powered by the two USB ports.

    Note to would-be fan designers; fans should circulate air around the HOT parts of the hardware. Not the bottom "foot" part.

    As a side note, this case makes it so you cannot tip the 360 upright.

    Sorry Zoozen, you cannot artificially generate hype for your ugly, redundant product by "leaking" an "R&D" video composed entirely of silly cg footage backed by a quasi-futuristic soundtrack.

    God this is horrible. Please, everyone, confirm that you're not getting some sort of Pavlovian response to any and all "secret" video game related footage.

    They insult all of us with this crap.

    @Bialia: He's right though. I have an old JVC stero tuner that looks EXACTLY like this. Even has the blue glow from behind the radio tuner knob.

    I think it's suspicious that the mods of that site are all for this thing, but most of the posts are like this guy's:

    "i'm not even going to get into the semantics of how stupid it would be to attempt to cool off by putting a sweater on and walking into a small room with 2 fans in it... (oh i guess i just did)"

    This is Microsoft* here. Looking at the Xbox 360 the wrong way should be enough to void the warranty.

    *This is a disclaimer for all MS fanboys out there. The Wii and PS3 suck for differing yet equally powerful reasons.
