Xbox 360 Special On Mtv - Are They Kidding?, What the heck was that?!? Options

[ERROR: Your Xbox Has Died]

It was a big piece of MTV crap

[rgtaa]

i agree it was crap!

You would think xbox 360 people would have done a better 30 minute job on getting us excited about the xbox360 and not focus on a "KILLER" BAND (crying how jealous he is for seeing his girlfriend kiss another guy... and telling us it hurts...so bad) ... or people dancing and getting excited about having a "pretty girl" bring the xbox 360 to the stage... while everyone is saying "wow"... LIGHTS flashing!

I guess it is about getting "non-gamers" to be on the "cutting edge" of COOL!

Wow! Pretty THINGIE! Wow. Look! Wow! Let's get Lord of the Rings guy to remind people of the NEW GREEN start up RING to POWER ON the BOX!

Ok everyone! Jump! act excited...

MS PR ... come on guys ... show us what the xbox 360 can do! show us! Maybe some footage of actual games or "what the games will look like" useing Super-Computer" that can display the potential of xbox 360. I understand game development is down the road some... but ... FAKE it ... and PROMISE us that THIS is What it is about.

Have people useing CAMERA and talking via xbox 360.
Show spectators watching others play on xbox 360 ... one of the features 360 is suppose to have.

I guess I was expecting more ... so I was more disappointed than others that "understand the MTV" attention span!

Now that I have watched it, I am extreamly dissapointed with what was shown. They didn't even really show in game graphics for any of the games, just a bunch of little movies. And I love how they showed like the 50 prototypes of the Xbox 360 but showed it in about a 5 second time span. Thank God for XBMC so I can pause it and see what the hell they were showing.

If you post in these forums, you are hardcore. The Our Colony ARG and video were clearly aimed at us. The MTV show was clearly aimed at the public at large, namely young people with disposable income, who also are not big gamers.

Why can't people understand these simple concepts? Debating whether or not the show was effective at targeting that market, is far more worthy of discussion than the bitching I've heard over these last two days, from people that should know better. Ashlee Simpson is playing Xbox in her LaLa pop video, I don't give a damn! Its simply not aimed at me, but MS wants a slice of that market.

MTV was a tightly produced, cynical high-five to all the kids, we should not be lowering our standards here by even discussing it. Its already had more attention than it deserves. Roll on E3.

[themadman123]

Agreed

[FoeHammer05]

Roll on E3.

Amen.

what i was most disapointed about was that SHITTY ASS case mod the 'pimp my ride' team did... there was nothing cool about it at all, except the paint.. but still.. theres no X3 inside it
