J Allard will be available for live chat today to answer questions about the Xbox 360. This is in response to the many questions that people are still asking, and some apparent misinformation that is going around.

For the past couple of days, I have been forwarding mail to J regarding some of the concerns the community has had with the recent announcements. Meanwhile J has been reading many of the online forums himself. Based on the some of the posts over the past few days, it’s clear there are still some questions that need to be answered (and some misinformation that needs to be cleared up.) J came to me and asked if I could help set up a direct dialogue with you, so we can get your feedback and answer your questions firsthand. Tomorrow (Sunday) you’ll have your chance.

J will do a live chat tomorrow afternoon that will be open to anyone that would like to attend. This will be a 60 minute, open forum chat where you can ask J anything. J would like to provide some perspective around the two SKU approach for Xbox 360, and answer as many questions as he can about the Xbox 360 during the hour. This will be a very candid discussion. I am expecting this will be a popular chat. We’ll try and get to as many questions as we can to make sure everyone is heard. One more thing: you’ll need to attend the chat to ask the questions…we won’t be taking questions any other way.

Basic ground rules: I’ll be moderating, and I won’t edit questions…but I will have to reject submissions that are profane, inappropriate, etc. (keep it clean please!)

Ok, on to the details:

someone, if not me, shuld mention the latest addiction(not crack), origenxbox360.com and if we could get more info about the rabbit and the countdown clock. The tree has rings inside the trunk, emphasising "the ring of light" on the power button of the xbox. :Pcguru:

someone ask him:

"Will the XBOX360 be using any Origen-al marketing techniques?"

EDIT: What time is 12pm PT in England?

I was logged in for over a hour waiting for it to start but then lost my connection right when it was supposed to begin and then I kept getting those same error messages whenever I tried to log back on so I missed the whole thing. If anyone has a copy of all the questions asked along with their answers please post them here, thanks.

The 2 things I really wanted to know weren't even asked: How do you transfer saves to the 360? And What's that Origen Website About? If anyone ever gets the answers to these questions I hope you post them.

That chat was a waste of time. He skimmed around the tough questions and just told us what we already knew.

I got booted halfway in.
