Super Paper Mario's coming out on the 9th of April, and Metroid Prime 3 and Super Smash Bros have yet to receive release dates.

It seems like you should check about those Nintendo games in June. Super Paper Mario - April 9th. The others you mention? Release date unannounced. So I'd like to know how YOU know what you know. Vendor release dates? A published journalist should know better than to trust that. Oh well.

I'd buy an XBox, but I'm afraid of losing it in the dark of the night. This sure won't help with that problem.

But seriously, this seems fairly lame. I am sure a million and one fanboys will buy a second console because of this, but they are morons. Making something black is just a lame way to give it faux-street cred. See: Every sports team's 3rd jerseys.

Currently, EBGames.com lists Mario Party 8, Super Smash Bros., and Metroid Prime 3 for a June 1st, 2007 release.

Now Xbox360 can properly compete with PS3 if they have the same color

any word on it being a gloss or flat black? True PS3 glossy black would give it a technical edge over PS3

It's now becoming clear via Best Buy and other sources that the black Xbox 360 arriving in May might indeed be Zephyr, the bulked up version 2. For more on Zephyr, check out our link in the story above.

So you don't even care that those vendor dates are wrong? Just because it is sourced on one site? I am sure that ebgames lists those as then, but they are merely filler dates. It's a hard April 9th NA for Super Paper Mario. Jeez. Enjoy your undeserved paycheck, 'Brando.' Add "Doesn't care about facts" to your 'about Brando' section.

Troy. Post facts? Where's your's?! I can understand the dilema with release dates and such but c'mon. EB Games is a renowned source for gamers all over North America. Just because a manufacturer states a launch date doesn't mean it's true. Of all people, gamers should know this. And why are you harping on Paper Friken Mario. Post something productive to the story.

Used Games Appear in Circuit City Ghetto

Gizmo Cafe Blog — Fri, 23 Feb 2007 14:18:44 GMT

Although Best Buy tried it in about four of its stores last year, Circuit City may be willing to take pre-owned merchandise one step further.

I think its another bogus report, if the source was correct then he would also know the specs and the price both were not published. If microsoft is making a revised model with a black housing to look good in the entertainment center in the bedroom or living room then they are wasting there time and money, the new specs need to be true if the xbox wishes to survive the console war!!!!!!!!!

I am absolutely certain this is the new version X-Box. I belong to a survey group that was doing research for the packaging of the new version, or Versions - As it were. They are packaging them with new style controllers and yes, HDMI standard, and the two versions of the box were a 120gig HD, and another with an 80gig.
The concern of the survey was price of the system packages, The new X Box looks to rival the PS3 in that area. It did however show the core package, with the new larger storage card even less than it is now. I don't know what combo and price they will settle for, but the version II is definitely real, and coming soon.
Remember where you heard it....

Rival the PS3 in terms of price?????!!!!??? *** you Bill dont tell me that ! Just kidding mate but seriously it better have an HD DVD player standard then, although i wont hold my breath on that.

Black Microsoft Xbox 360 Features Further Revealed

I already have my 360 since the launch party, I'm not going out of my way (which isn't far since I work @ futureshop aka owned by bestbuy corp.) to go buy the "elite" zypher version. its' only an HDMI cable good for sending both Audio & Video in digital, and who knows who will win the Hi-Def DVD battle. The only real thing it's good for is making the connections simpler and the DRM for the HiDef movies. I'll stick w/ my original 360 (that works fine since launch) and just get the VGA adapter & the 120 GB HDD when it's out. (I'm thinking of picking up the Samsung LCD 206BW or 226BW to match my Logitech Z-10 Speakers (which will also be hooked up to my mac)

Microsoft’s Upcoming Black Xbox 360 is “Elite”

Gizmo Cafe Blog — Mon, 26 Mar 2007 13:15:58 GMT

You want the features? Here’s what you get with an “Elite” Xbox 360.

re: Black Microsoft Xbox 360 Hitting Best Buy in May

Guest — Tue, 27 Mar 2007 23:30:32 GMT

$475 for new "Elite" Xbox 360. And yet, it is only add things that PS3 already have without the bluRay or HD-DVD. Let see if I add in HD-DVD, it comes to $675. Most of the people might say that well it doesn't matter because MS allows me to upgrade if I wanted to. Very interesting! Anyone for class economic 101.

Microsoft’s Black Xbox 360 Not Quite Elite

Gizmo Cafe Blog — Mon, 02 Apr 2007 12:50:23 GMT

Some of the anticipation may subside now that the Redmond-based company is admitting the new system isn’t quite as “Elite” as first thought.

Lets see, a gaming console that is upgradeable (XB360) or a console (PS3) that forces features on the buyer. Hmm, and when buyers don't buy into the PS3 BS features, Fony removes them (emotion chip, core model, etc.)without changing the price.

HD-DVD or Bluray? Who cares, unless your primary use of the gaming console is a Movie Player.
