Well latest leak from VGLeaks gives good info on a few rumors for neXtBox.

1) the rumored 2nd box is actually the X360 mini type device without a Disc Drive and THAT is what would require the internet connection to work as it is a set-top device similar to an GoogleTV or AppleTV PLUS it would allow backwards compatibility to the X360 on the neXtBox.

2) the rumor for a required connection to play games was not really true in that only refers to the new x360mini stated above and not Durango itself. Its also not apparently a DRM type enforcement or blocking used games.

Interesting stuff, unfortunately doesn't affect my OP really. I'll wait for more info on this x360 mini and I have yet to add anything regarding the online DRM rumor.

Will be interesting to see this all wrap up and come to a reveal over the next few weeks.

Well good on MS! Seems like they still have a chance of winning this gen then... I bet this 360mini is to test the market and see if people are ready for always connected next gen...



I'm on Twitter @DanneSandin!

Furthermore, I think VGChartz should add a "Like"-button.
