It should be noted that Impress initially ran an article stating that the Xbox value packs released in Japan were NOT the Falcon chips. Unluckily for them, they actually took apart one of them, and uploaded an exposed CPU which proved them to be the same Falcon chips users had found on Halo 360's. Japanese message boards ate this for lunch, and Impress was forced to run a follow-up article in which they finally bothered to use a wattmeter and said, yes, the system does use less power and therefore may be a Falcon chipset.
