The Xbox 360 Fancast shambles on this week. Sadly, as there is no Xav on the show, we are forced to ramble on without any angry tirades. It's sad, we know. Still, you can hear us gab on and on about Capcom, Mass Effect 2 and other things too! Oh, and we do our best not to use any naughty words. Our best, as it turns out, isn't very good.

Hey Richard, getting ch33voz in TF2 for PC isn't hard; you just suck.
I did grind achievements for Pyro and Medic, but I got all 3 Scout items within a week (or however long it's been).

Oh my God it was me! I changed the wikipedia entry for pixie sticks! One time Dustin referenced them in a post, and the link brought up that wikipedia page, so I just changed it, LOL.

The quality has gone down since then, but I liked Sonic Unleashed, and it makes me happy to see he's still around. I remember watching the cartoon when I was six or seven years old, eating mini-pancakes before school every morning, that feels like a completely different life now, but Sonic is the only thing that's always been there through it all. :(

I thought it was a bit ironic from that dad, because the kid is going to know what the word means sooner or later anyway, and if he would rather listen to it without his kid hearing those words, why not headphones?
Also, the outtakes were pure gold. That Dustin cussout just about had me laughing so hard out loud.

The reason the jump and crouch buttons are on the left shoulder and bumper is so you can look around with the right analog and jump which you couldn't do if jump was on a face button.

I just sent you an invite. I'll only play levels I've finished in single player though which so far is up to mission 7.

What I believe for a newer console is pushing the boundaries in physics in games. More graphic candy like higher AA etc. without needing the need to push resolution(TVs will be 1080p for long time). Integrating more input control options (including movement tracking). They did buy the Israeli company which does have the technology.
It needs to be cooler and quieter and they will need to move to Blu-Ray. 120GB is old news. It needs to be in the 250GB-500GB range for sure. These are all evolutionary items nothing revolutionary but will present a good bump to the current gen Xbox to be called a new console.
If they support all the features of Dx11 they will have a winner on their hands. Its easier to code for and completely encompasses Dx10 which programmers have already gotten a hang off. This will ensure their support from developers for the next generation. I think I see them introducing a newer console no sooner than 2011 Fall or Summer 2012.
