Xbox 360 Elite spied in production

Look, we know it's coming and all, but that doesn't mean we can't have fun getting ourselves all excited over spy shots and the like. A forum member over at the China's TGFC has managed to sneak some shots of the Xbox 360 Elite in production, and it sure is looking... black and silver. We're not sure how "Wangsososos" got the shots, and we sure hope his machine-translated statement doesn't mean what we fear it might: "As mobile phones, cameras can not be brought into plants. The key to reaching the buttocks no plans, joy!" But we digress. For some up close and personal pics of that 120GB drive, peep the gallery.

Xbox 360 Elite spied in production

As sweet as this thing is, it's really not worth it until they get the 65nm chips in there.

I'll wait for the inevitable Halo 3 Edition (which will match my Halo Edition Xbox just fine).

Wow Engadget, you sure are a bunch of Apple loving fanboys. Check you out, posting all these useless stories about Apple gadgets like the black 360, which is just an iMac with black paint on it. Spy photos? Get real, those are totally photoshopped and stuff! This is not news worthy, and it clearly shows your Apple bias.

Etc etc...

as an employee in the UK gaming industry, i can confirm that MS is tweaking the 360 and taking the opportunity to 'tweak' the internal components,and increase the 'options' for display output? thats all for now

It's called sarcasm, and it's in response to all the Engadget haters who constantly talk about how Engadget only covers useless Apple news like the latest Apple TV hack. Yet, here we have Engadget covering news on the 360, a Microsoft product (the anti-Apple.. right?), which could be considered by many to be a non-news item as well since it has been confirmed that the new 360 is in production.
I can't believe I actually had to explain my post. You must not read Engadget much.

Cos the N64 didn't have half a dozen colours, and there werent red, blue, yellow and silver ps2s. You can legitimately say M$ released a poor 360 to get it out the door early, but leave the colour thing out of it, complain about the spec boost ripping of loyal early adopters(I do feel slightly ripped off, but not the colour change, which likely is just a limited run and looks nasty.

"1 good game. 2 to come. Then what?"

Then it will have one more great exclusive than the PS3 does?
