orangerfulthe Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 design amuse me. ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jimithingy told me that out of the 3 systems, xbox did the worst in Japan because of it's clunky design. Now, the 360 is catering to the Japanese sensibilities with a slender white box. Apparently black is out now too, as the PS3 model of choice appears to be silver. Silver and white, the color of the future! (We watched a chunk of G4's E3 coverage last night, it fried my brain....and Adam Sessler talks really fast when he's not scripted).
Xbox's specs are getting out of control as well, I mean, eventually its just going to be a PC. "Share digital photos", why would you want to share digital photos over the Xbox? Wait, wasn't their a Penny Arcade strip about that? I believe Tycho was sending pictures of his balls to Gabe.
Victory was mine yesterday as we did a dash in to Target and Wal-Mart. Found a red senate guard plus the Obi and Grievous cups. My Grievous cup was a bit messed up though, but since it was the only one there, I don't think I can take it back. Ah well. The red guard is pretty cool though, now I just need the blue one. They are the same toy number, which might be why it's so hard to find both of them. Hopefully with the movie coming out this week, some of the more spoilery toys will also be on the shelves soon.
Workin' at West County library from 1-9 tonight. Come by and ask me questions!
