some guy at the unveiling event (or whatever) said:
He said
-He played Perfect Dark Zero and the graphics made his heart jump! No jaggies what-so-ever and no flat surfaces either, everything was in full 3D. He said everything right down to the strands of grass you'll see in next gen should be highly detailed in 3D.
-Xbox 360 can play Xbox 1 games, and at an even higher resolution
-The system will have customizable face plates. Plain white and pearl white were the only colors on display at the event. So all you f***ers who are whining because you're afraid the system won't match your carpet or get dirty can be quiet.
-He loved the new controllers and said he think MS spent a lot of time on it, he said it's real smooth and has a nice grip. He said there is a USB port under the controller that he's very excited to see it.
-There are no load times
-He said the system has Tivo functions (which he plans on never using, I hope he didn't mean that in a negative way)
-System has a DVD bruner and a software package to go with it
-He said the system is smaller than the Xbox 1 but not as small as PS2
-When describing the graphics he said he thinks the system will produce ingame graphics on the level of current gen CG, specifically what we've seen in games like Final Fantasy. He said the "2 Days to Vegas" pics seen some time ago is no problem for the 360.

-He said controllers are rechargable
-Has ONE and only ONE controller port in the back for Xbox 1 controllers
Stuff I copied from a forum:
Okey, so I got the magazine right here. The first details about Xbox 360 and Ghost Recon 3. I got some of the info, and I will keep updating this thread while reading.
First info for you guys:
*It will be released in europe 7-10 days after USA-release
*December release in Japan
*Its released in less than six months
*Release games: Perfect Dark Zero, PGR3 and Kameo. Check at the end of this post.
Oh you guys... the controllers look PERFECT! And so does the console!
More info:
*10-16 game ***les at the release. 40 games after half a year.
*The Xbox Live Silver thingy is correct, it will be there, and those features will be free. "Free weekends" and such.
*You will be able to transfer stuff from an ipod. Mentioned more later.
*You will see TV thru your Xbox. Mentioned more later, check under.
*You can have it placed on "standing position" and just have it straight down.
*When you watch DVD, some stuff in the console will automaticly shut down - so its more quiet. Like one of the fans.
*You load the batteries on the controllers up via USB-cable on Xbox.
*The round thingy on the controller = "The ring of light". Its actually a screen, which says if there are any updates on Xbox Live. Downl. content and such. It also says which controller there is in your hands, the number.
*Rallisport Challenge 3 is rumoured to be on Xbox 360. See under.
*Peter Moore confirms Halo 3. Release earliest next year, according to Nexus.
Allard says:
*There will be face plates, changeable. There will be one in colfiber (+spelling).
*By preventing piracy they will put more money and XBL, making it bigger and better.
Peter Moore says:
(strange) *THIS time we will have more than 1 million users. (Does that mean that there wont be any transfer of the Xbox 1 users? Or that there werent over 1 million on Xbox 1?)
*Nothing new about Square, nothing to be announced @ E3. But he will be surprised if there are NO Square-game on Xbox 360.
Ghost Recon 3:
Okey, first of all. THIS ONE LOOKS HOT. Hot. HOT. HOT. GR 360 oh man you guys.
Oh man.
*Just some info about the story, bla bla. The PC-version is developed by the Deathrow-developers, so that the Red Storm Ent. cant concentrate on the Xb 360 and Xbox-version.
________
More:
*Xbox 360 looks just like the leaked pictures. Its not grey like on Our Colony, its white. But it can be changed.
*The controller seems to have 2 rear buttons and 2 triggers, not sure.
*A, B, X, Y, Back, Start.
*There is a picture of THE "Burning Sky". Seems like you can shut down the Xbox via the controller, by pushing "X" in that screen.
*The Xbox itself has wireless network thingy installed. See below.
*Webcam in 1280-resolution. See below.
*You can put pictures from a digital camera in it. See below.
*Morrowind Oblivion will be released this year.
*About NBA 2k6, they saw a demo of it.
"Lebron James jumped up, and when he touched the grand all of the body shook. All the muscles moved realistic, EVERYTHING on the body."
*Nothing special about PGR3. See below.
*Dimitri, Peter Molyneux latest game, COULD be released on Xbox 360.
*Call Of Duty 2 on Xbox 360, as we already knew.
*The Ghost Recon 3-article is actually written by this TXB-dude who went to Big Blue Box to play Fable, Nexus1000.
*Something Microsoft Vision will be on Xbox 360. You will see normal TV-channels via your Xbox. AND at the same time Play DVDs AND surf on the internet. At the same time, it seems like.
While all this is on you can get invites to games, friend requests, mail. MS is hoping that 50% of the 360-owners will use Live. Right now, ~8% uses it.
*In the middle of a game, by pushing a button you will get directly to the dashboard.
Oh, and finally and most important: J Allards game of the Xbox 360 is "Fisher Price Nuclear Plant". (edit: which wasnt true, see later in the thread)
Oh, and of course: Thousand thanks to the magnificant (+spelling) danish magazine Gamereactor which I took the info from. They rock, and so does Nexus1000. Mostly because he is pretty. And he has Britney as an avatar. In black hair.
