I thought Sony did something similar with the X-box original's release ?
Oh and Piper, Stubs the Zombie now out on x-box, is that compatible with the 360 (assuming I do get one), cos if I do get a 360 I'd aim to sell any old x-box games with the old x-box (which will include steel batallions *sniffs*)
Edit : Is it just me or does the PS3 look like a VHS player ? If that is the final look I much prefer the curvier 360 look.
