Xbox 360 Fanboy

I want an Xbox 360 Vintage =( You'd think they'd save the most ludicrous idea for last though, putting the helmet first I'm sure would have made even the most gullible become sceptical...

My colleagues fell for the helmet.

All that just seemed like a strecth and forced. I'd believe the helmet would get more use than the LIVE Vision camera.

I saw this on Live this morning but was too tired to nitice what it was, then I got the email... If I were drinking milk it would have shot out of my nose! Microsoft have a sense of humour, shock horror!
That vintage 360 is classic, I love the wooden controller!!!

The sad thing is that none of these are really bad ideas!

A VR 3D helmet for total game immersion? - AWESOME, HELL YEAH! (and I agree it would get more use than my Xbox Live Vision camera which is in a desk drawer... and DOESN'T work with Windows Vista!?!)

Board game that earns points? - A) Point whores unite! B) And unlike my Wii, a board games is probably the ONLY way I could get my family and some of friends to play my 360 (on XBL for that matter), so MS might want to take note of that.

Xbox 360 "Recon Addition"? You mean a small, lightweight, rugged, battery powered, portable 360 that won't break if you turn it on its side (let alone attempt to take it to friends house) and doesn't require a massive power brick? * SIGN * ME * UP!!

Finally, a retro-cool design for this the pale tower that doesn't look good next to any of my other components? Hey, at least it would finally have some style! (what is the point of swappable faceplates if they ALL SUCK?)

Don't get me wrong, I love my 360, I just think MS should think "out of the box" more than just for April fools jokes.

They should have told everyone Xbox Live would now be free.

You know what would had been like...really FUNNY?? Everyone who logged into Live would have their 360s immediately flash the 3 red lights, only for a few seconds, and then display a message saying April's Fool. I can only laugh imagining the faces of millions of people when this would happen!

I am not sure if this possible through software but i would like MS to try and pull it off. But of course, they won't. How could they laugh at themselves?

Every time I see Major Nelson, I can't stop thinking about what a tool he is.
