Hex 168 countdown ends: a new 360 contest begins

By Dan Choi

Microsoft's Hex 168 countdown has just ended, and it's revealed a contest with 17 days remaining to "uncover signs of HEX 168."

360 pre-release Xbox 360s? Sounds good to us, but we fear that a lot of photographic footwork will be involved in trying to acquire NextBoxes for ourselves. At least we now have an visual-submissions
contest everyone can be proud of (and that casual 360 followers can safely ignore).

Speculation on the new 360-centric site ran rampant over the past week, but we're simply happy that the mystery surrounding yet another MS viral-marketing campaign has finally been put to rest. So, anyone ready to dig deep into this one?
