BLACK XBOX 360

Engadget, Gizmodo, Joystiq and other media outlets have been reporting rumors about a new XBOX 360 coming out in the near future for a couple months now.

The rumors have now been confirmed by Engadget sources.

What does this mean for you? Well for starters the new 360 will have a 120GB hard drive and a lovely new HDMI output. Oh and it will be black.

There are also rumors that the new 360 will use the new 65nm processor thus making it create less heat and less noise.

Don't feel bad though. The rumor also states that after the black 360s are gone they premium 360 that is around now will adopt the 120GB hard drive and HDMI output.

One question though. Did they make it black because 360 owners are jealous of the Playstation 3? Who knows. All I know is that I'm kicking myself for buying a 360 a few months ago. I will probably wait for confirmation on the sale of the console and trade in the one I have for the new and improved model.
