Boy gets XBox 360 early

Justin Buser · 18-07-2005, 03:07 PM

Check these picstures out. Apparently this guys starting saying in some IRC chat rooms that he had got the Xbox 360 early, and posted these pictures. They do indeed show him playing Halo 2 on a bona fine Xbox 360!

As the story goes, his Dad just got hired at MS, and was able to bring home the machine to test it (the wires coming out the top are for testing). The kid doesn't have any Xbox 360 games, but was testing out the backwards compatibility with Halo 2.

Thanks to Tony for the pics

i was just about to post that....darn beat me to it.

i know that kid, i bump into him every frickin time i go to the ms store. he's a little scrawny sk8boarder. pretty good at halo, but apparently not all that smart...

"hey dad, can i borrow your xbox360? i promise i won't take any pictures of it and put them on the internet!!"

"okay, son, i trust you because if you do that, we'll become destitute..."

I found this on another site and I think it deserves to be put here.

Kinda sad, but look at that kid, he's smurking like a spoiled rich kid who doesn't appreciate anything. I'm not too jealous though, unless he got pre-launch games to play, but at this point, I doubt it.

Do youthink Maximum Virginity will be a big seller? He may connect with a huge gaming audience...

Liquids · 18-07-2005, 06:36 PM

Yeah I've pre-ordered Maximum Virginity. The graphics look unreal...

Grindstone · 18-07-2005, 06:58 PM

Graphics are great, but I'm more concerned about the game play. Wow, this could get ugly real quick.

bennyboo03 · 18-07-2005, 07:33 PM

its odd, he's playin one of the first out xbox 360s and he's playin it on a smalllll T.V. sittin on the floor and hes sittin down within notin but walls and carpeting around him.they must of gave away the first to a poor person on purpose so every1 sees how "nice" they are

I thought these IGN pictures were quite amusing, they're showing IGN without the 360, inspired by the baffoon who posted pictures of himself with a 360...
