Earlier today, at the E3 2010 Microsoft Press Conference, Microsoft made a move that shocked the audience. This move is now being referred to as someone of an "Oprah effect". So, what did Microsoft do? Like when Oprah gave away 200 brand new cars, Microsoft gave away newly modeled Xbox 360's to everyone in the audience. For a moment, the entire audience was still, not believing what they had just heard. It wasn't long before everyone was standing and clapping at the exciting news.

Sure, you can call it a bribe, as many people are. Even then, it is without any need to say that what Microsoft did was generous, and that is got them quite a bit of a reputation boost at the same time.

Sony, being Microsoft's closest competitor on the gaming market, will likely retaliate with some generosity of their own. What will they do? How will they make it better than Microsoft's "Oprah effect"? Perhaps they didn't have anything like that planned... But if that is true, we can be sure of one thing: Their plans just changed.

Thats Cooll but Sony probably has some big plans now

He said they are only $300

im pretty sure they are $300

same shitty xbox 360 in a better case

Im not saying the 360 is better or worse, but thats coming from a ps3 owner, i think the opinion is a tad biased.

That xbox looks cute... Why is there a viberator in the picture.......?

I already preordered the new xbox heck yehhh

E3 is not a public event, the staff chooses who gets in.

i went to e3 and got a new Xbox =D its SO cool. most of the buttons are touch like the fat ps3. Its really glosy its easy to put finger prints on it lol
