Remember dreamcast was the first to release there console a year before all the others and look what happened. It flopped like fish on dry land. I can see the same for the 360 unless microsoft has some whitty plan and it better be a damn good one.
Everone likes to say the dreamcast was released "mid-generation"; the power increase over the N64/PSX wasn't all that great, and the competitors (particularily the PS2) just came by and outright crushed anything the dreamcast was capable of.
Here, the Xbox360 looks like it's on par with what the competitors have in mind. The specs sure are day and night compared to the current line of consoles.
Anyways, looks good, and I like MS's decision to change the controller layout; I never did quite "get" the xbox's controller, and the new design looks a tad more intuitive (no more clear/black buttons!). Also, are there now two shoulder buttons per side or is it just a piece of plastic on top?
Dunno about the shiny ghost-white or the uplifted button wells, though.
