Topic: Xbox Development


' The Xbox/MTV show that will unveil the Xbox360 and that will be broadcasted on MTV the 12th of May has been recorded yesterday at Club Avalon in Hollywood '
While photos of the show itself have not been leaked (yet), pictures of some of the celebrities that attended the filming, as well as the walk on the 'green' carpet have been released. And in the background you can find a logo ;)

This is the first official appearance of the new logo, which confirms that those logos seen in last year’s marketing studies were indeed the final design. The new logo has replaced the green orb for a titanium-like sphere that has the X inserted in it. The font for the Xbox title has also been changed to more traditional characters.



TeamXbox made a nice collage with all the logo images they found, go check it out:

TriXie has some photos and more star details on her blog: http://www.trixieblog.com.

The norwegian newspaper 'Verdens Gang' also posted several pictures of the event on vg.no (Thanks to J-S L. for the link!)

Major Nelson (alias Larry Hryb or the Xbox Live Director of Programming) posted some info about the event too, including a blogcast with an interview of Elijah Wood:
' Ok, it’s late and I am exhausted, but I wanted to get you guys a blogcast as quick as I could. Before I get to that, let me just say what a great bunch of winners we had. I spent a few hours with them before the show, and they were all very nice…and very excited. After I met with them, I had to go and work the green carpet. You can see some of the green carpet photos here or in the sidebar of my blog. I can’t show any of the photos from the inside of the party yet…you’ll have to wait for next week to see that. Oh and the stars? I need to get the whole list…but Tony Hawk, Alyssa Milano, Chris Kattan are just a few of the folks I bumped into on the carpet. I’ll get my hands on the larger list when I am more coherent. '

On to the blogcast:
The audio is not as good as usual since I don’t have my normal mic with me. That said, I was able to get a few minutes with show host Elijah Wood (which I recorded with my Creative Zen Micro.) Yea the party was great. YES the new console is dead sexy….no you can’t see it (or the name) until the world premiere on MTV next week. Until then, enjoy the sites and sounds that I have provided here. I’ll have more to share after the premiere.
