Rumour Of Black Xbox 360

According to recent rumours Australian store chain Myer was informed to be prepared for a Black Xbox 360 that comes with a HDMI port and a 120GB hard drive. Rumoured to have a price tag of around $585, making it almost as expensive as Sony's 60GB PS3.

Wonder if there is any truth in this?

Not Actual Picture Just Artists Impression

I'm probably wrong with this, but can't you get covers for the 360 to customise it? Maybe that's where you might have seen a black one...

They are only the faceplates, like mine has a Gears Of War one.

Black Xbox 360 Rumors Are (Mostly) False

Quote:
Various web sites are continuing to proclaim that a black Xbox 360 is in the works. And while there is no question that Microsoft will eventually release new colors for the console, the recent photos that were alleged to be evidence of an impending black version are in fact just photos of an old reviewer's kit, produced on September 14, 2005 according to the sticker on the back!

Most people know that reviewer's kits of the Xbox 360 are black in color, yet these web sites are still fooling people into believing that photos of said reviewer kit at various trade shows are somehow evidence of a new product to be release very soon, despite the fact that the black reviewer kits (and photos of them) have been floating around since the Xbox 360 launched in 2005!

If any of these sites bothered to take a closer look at the photos they would have realised this. Instead, they proceeded to publish stories claiming the photos were "proof" of the rumored black version. And then they wondered why the photos were missing an HDMI port and larger hard drive. How stupid can people be?

We are not denying that a black 360 could be on the way very soon. But using these old photos and trying to pass them off as evidence is just wrong.

Stay tuned for further updates on the rumored black 360. If and when it is confirmed for real, we'll let you know!

I didn't see an HDMI port but I figured I wasn't looking hard enough.
I'm still going to wait for one I don't care if it's black.
