Microsofts E3-inbjudan damp ner i brevlådan
Av Bengt Lemne Skapad 2005-04-15
Det är inte varje dag vi får en skum spegel med 70-talsmönster i brevlådan så det tyckte vi var värt att skriva om på siten. Det märkliga brevet var i själva verket en inbjudan till Microsofts E3-presskonferens med efterföljande fest. Vad betyder de hypnotiska ringarna? Vi kommer rapportera direkt från Shrine Auditorium i Los Angeles den 16:e maj om vad Microsoft har att säga. Då har visserligen redan deras nya konsol presenterats på MTV, men vi räknar med att ännu fler detaljer presenteras på presskonferensen.

i sure do hope that this is not the official symbol for the 360. MS can do better. Nice find though.

That can't be the new symbol. It doesn't seem very.. um.. cool and marketable.
I mean, how gimp is a new groundbreaking game system to be represented by a smeared color.

They are just implying. Can anyone make out what the invitations says? All I can see is "If you could look to the future what would you see?"

I doubt it it as well too.
Looks like the real symbol is under the "spiral" filter or something :P heh

That logo blows. I could make that in PS, easily. And after I made it, I would be in no way proud of the final result.

Surely that's not it. If they're going to go with a name as highly marketable to idiots like 360, then they're gonna go with a much more simple, highly marketable logo.

you sound pretty bitter.. would you rather them have an unmarketable name and have game producers stop supporting them and have the xbox go under?

isnt that the "hidden" symbol at the end of the mountain dew commercial?

I highly doubt to be the symbol, it's just too... yeah.

It's just some art on the invitation.

What will blow your minds, guys, is that those two colors of green....they're the SAME SHADE!!!









:p

If that's the new logo, I'll eat my socks w/ my feet still in 'em.

I guess I just wish they went with the name Xenon. Thought it was WAY better.

I don't know about you, but I don't like my consoles to have the names of noble gases.

Krypton is a noble gas. It would have been clever to name it Kryptonite, keeping with the green color.

Except Kryptonite is a trademarked name and so they couldn't. :)

I kinda liked Xenon as well but too close to Xeon CPUs. Don't really like Xbox 360. It's a clumsy name. Perhaps it will grow on me.

That is the rumored Ring Of Light.

I don't know why did they choose that name, sound not really original at all.

I didn't really like Xenon, it reminded me of Xena: the Princess Warrior, personally not a good image to relate with a console

I think that design is gonna be the logo. The MTV commercial for the Xbox360 show ends with the circles turing into the words XBOX.

Damn, how old is this? :D
