Microsoft unveils blue-tinted Xbox 360, for developers onlyWell hello hotness. What’s not to love about the new Xbox 360 dev kit unveiled at this week’s Game Developers Conference and due out in the summer? It’s ultra-sexy with its sleek black-and-blue tint finish and stylish etchings. It also features 1GB of RAM, twice what is found in the retail model.

Sadly, no matter how much drool pools up on your desktop, this hardware is only for those who make the games. But maybe they will take pity on us and offer one up to the masses soon.

It’s easily the most beautiful Xbox we’ve ever seen. Yet so out of reach. sigh.

    Amazing!!!! wonder what that extra top holds, 500gb hd??? that would rock. I want one. Or a kit to make it

    Pretty sweet, one question: Does the blue tint help hide the RROD or E74 errors? Just joking (not really). If you ask me, MS should have put out a newer and sleeker 360 version by now. Sorry, painting the outside of the console as black or red doesn’t count. How about some cooler LED’s? A smaller design? A higher end model with built-in capabilities that also happens to not break every 6mos? Oh well, hopefully the next Xbox will benefit from some sleeker concepts.

    PS: Hey MS! The next Xbox better not have a big sign on the front stating how it has broken….Imagine how hard it would be for the press to attack the failure rates if they didn’t know all the hardware failures were related?

    The extra top? Most likely it holds an additional cooling fan! LOL (cue the drums).

  4. Dave Says:

    Hmmm… I wonder? Just a theory, but WHY would Microsoft feel the need to release a new, different colored dev kit? Perhaps it could be for the development of games using blu-ray technology?? Again, just a theory.. blue dev kit= bluray? iono, but I hope so!!

    It also has built in blu-ray, wifi, and dual gigabyte ethernet. Also has intel core duo for 100% origanal xbox compatibility and Twice the 360’s CPU and GPU power.
