Live Picture of the Next Xbox
n0ethics writes "A live picture of the Xbox 360 was leaked from Microsoft's Xbox 360 launch party held last night. The culprit appears to be a privately-owned cameraphone. Engadget Reports... Also included in the leak was the new Xbox Live headset, a new Xbox 360 controller and the new Eye-toy-ish Xbox 360 peripheral. Now the question is: was this intentional, or should we fear Bill?"
Why do they call it a "live picture"?
TFA says "real live picture". "real live" is an English idiom. The submitter probably didn't understand it.
Those aren't controller ports... those are memory card slots. There are no controller ports, because the controllers are wireless.
This isn't astroturfing, it's "normal" viral marketing. Astroturfing would be MS employees coming into this article to post comments praising MS, but ourcolony has never denied that MS is backing them (that I'm aware of, at least).
