Default where are the controller ports

Hey Bob here I was looking at the 360 and it just dawned on me,,,, where are the controller ports. The 360 will be able to support up to four controllers right. But when i look at the pics of it I don't see any ports.. Get back to me on this

There are 3 usb ports(2 on the front under the panel and one on the back)
The 360 supports 4 wireless controllers or 2 wired and 2 wireless.
The back USB is for the 360 camera or wireless adapter

Its any combination of 4 controllers but you can only have 3 wired controllers as there are only 3 USB ports.

And to answer the question the new wired controllers use USB connections instead of the traditional controller ports.

wonder why they only put 3 USB ports in, because they could have put in another one, kinda sucks though because i like the wired controller, but i think that the 360 comes with a wireless one, even the core

Just the premium package comes with a wireless controller I'm afraid.

I wonder the exact same thing. Why 3 of all the numbers. Put 4 but its MS. The core has a wired controller.

"I thought it was 4 wireless and 2 wired for a total of 6. Am I wrong?"

The system will only recognize 4 controller, wired or wireless. If you put 4 wireless controllers and 1 wired, the system will recognized the wired (because its directly connected) and three wireless controllers
