Doesn't include the console. WTF.

Doesn't include the console. WTF.

WTF indeed.

I've been told how much these are worth, well the price of one in the UK anyway. All I'll say is that if it sold for four times its current price, then it would still be cheaper than the current price on that auction :lol

MS can sell the console at a loss easily and make all their money back on the demo pods

 

[Outdoor Miner]

I'd buy that for a dollar!

You can get a 23-Inch Samsung LCD HDTV for less than $200???

 

[123rl]

The stand makes up most of the cost. That particular Samsung model they use retails at about £500 over here so it must cost at least £200-250 to make

 

[Speevy]

Well that's useful.

 

[monchi-kun]

wtf is up with the horribly pixelated image on the auction?

 

[StoOgE]

Wow, that is a really really smooth looking Kiosk. What is the deal with the slot in the middle of the kiosk?

 

[Outdoor Miner]

Doesn't that TV alone retail for $999.99?

i believe its for memory cards to download special themes for your xbox360 dashboard at home.

 

[truffleshuffle83]

morphix will buy this

 

[123rl]

Yeah it's for memory cards

It's the 23" version - LE23R41B (European model...I don't know the US model number)

 

[Speevy]

I can't wait to see Revolution kiosks.

Even more than themes, I think. DLC, maybe even emulation profiles.

The headphone jacks are a nice touch. Ditto for providing for the camera in advance.

 

[StoOgE]

Im guessing that is for people without Live? Because if I have to go to a Kiosk to DL something when Im allready hooked up to live, I will be pissed.

 

[Beer Monkey]

I can't see having to use a kiosk to download anything critical. I could see exclusive themes, though I agree it kinda sucks.

The TV looks like Samsung LN-R238W which streets for about $800. 1366 x 768 resolution, which means we'll see a little scaling from 720p.

IIRC it is for users without live, hence the memory card....everything else will be downloadable through live

Don't want to start a new thread, but I've been reading around and noticed MS has started shipping their playable demo kiosks to stores. Looks like gamers will be able to get hands on with Xbox 360 soon.

 

[truffleshuffle83]

yeah i talked to managers at gamestop and eb and they both said they should be getting theirs within the next couple weeks, towards the end of oct. i know where ill be going every day

Well to be fair, it's for charity.

 

[Xrenity]

Looks awesome

Bummer you don't get the console

 

[Agent Icebeezy]

I can't wait till one of these appears at a local gaming store

 

[Yusaku]

I'll give that thing 5 minutes until the controllers are broken and giant greasy handprints are embedded onto the screen.
