I say this is a stupid move by MS and they won't benefit from it. I think it will confuse the market and help its competition. XBOX just doesn't have the recoginition to consumers that Playstation and Nintendo names have and when they go to the store and see 3 different boxes with so many different things about them they might be turned off from it. We'll see.JiveT

    Remember the Halo edition Xbox? That confused no one.

    As for the games not supporting HDMI. That is funny. Cables make no difference to how the game performs. That is like saying I cannot play an HD game on a SDTV since composite cables aren't supported.
