You have definitely heard of the famous Xbox 360, haven’t you? But what’s with an Xbox 720? Is it something that’s unknown to you? No worries, it was not known to me either about 5 minutes back and is something that I just came across, following my daily routine of searching the web for some cool gizmos.
Nah, this isn’t the official Xbox 720 that you can go gaga over. Its just another perspective Xbox mod, or rather a suggestion of what the Xbox 360 would look like in the future. Made by a certain Tai Chiem, this piece of mod is quite futuristic with the skeletonized frame and the acrylic cover, giving it a UFO like feel. The mod sports the Xbox emblem on the cover and the power and the reset buttons are in the front, with the Microsoft logos on the sides. I am not sure about the placement of the CD-Rom, though. The mod design looks plush with the matte finish given to it and is made in color hues of classic red, green and blue and a combination of black and silver.
Although cool, I am not sure whether Microsoft is gonna even consider this design; it’s not because this design is lacking anything, its just that I don’t think Microsoft has a good eye for creativity. I mean, the regular Xbox 360 has no looks to hype about; there are far better Xbox 360 mods available, that make up for the lack of luster and plush feeling of the classy console, don’t you agree?

Actually, I don’t agree at all. Neither Microsoft nor any other company out there would consider this mock-up because it’s ugly as hell. It looks like some kind of terrible cell phone case that someone zipped up after they put a tennis ball inside. Look at that thing…it can only sit one way, and you can’t stack anything on it. I like the default Xbox 360 design because it’s simple.

Putz, a Nintendo é a única que sempre trouxe inovações e mantem-se nesse mercado a décadas, sempre liderando.
E vão me investir nessa demonstração de DESIGN INOVADOR tendo como base um videogame da MICROSOFT ?!?!? Putz… Uma parasita que só imita…
E aquele controle jurássico do inventado Play Station 4 da Sony ???
É impressionante, o Wii vendeu o triplo de console de todos os outros concorrentes juntos. Inova na forma de jogar usando realidade virtual e não ganha espaço nesses protótipos…
Mas full HD, alta-definição, excesso de beleza, design, alta capacidade de processamento e terabytes de memória não faltam para Sony e Microsoft, intrusas nessa área.
Agora, simplicidade, jogabilidade e diversão, a gente deixa pra Nintendo e o Wii.

Simple things tend to attract simple minds. I love this design.
September 17th, 2009 at 4:34 pm
I thinkthe design is cool but not at all practical
September 28th, 2009 at 3:35 pm
Wow super cool… That NEEDS to be the new design totally sci-fi. Love it!
October 26th, 2009 at 8:06 am
Thats to much sci-fi warship bunk! The design needs much more elegance.

That is SUPER AWSOME!!!!!!!!!! i like it but sadly i know it wont be the design because its too sci-fi, it will be a lot to make, too much to make actually, but if it was cheap to make and produce, THE BEST!!!
November 23rd, 2009 at 6:02 am
what i think SHOULD fit…
Features for the XBox 720:
1) Blue-ray
multi connection
2) free live play, internet, searching etc.
3) all the “Friends, stores, gaming, market place” just like the 360
4) 1080 HD
5) just about the same accesories only better
6) many free dmovie, music, game downloads
7) personalization and customation
and others
November 24th, 2009 at 5:24 pm
I see absolutely no way that this will be the design. First, as others have said, it’s ugly as hell. You also have to look at the design. This would lead to so many overheating problems. It’s a ridiculous architecture to try and build a system into also. Whoever designed this is a crappy designer who doesn’t understand computers at all.
November 26th, 2009 at 6:07 am
Looks great, really nice post keep up the superb work!
November 29th, 2009 at 7:15 am
Love the Design Microsoft is thinking very futuristic
November 29th, 2009 at 10:00 pm
Remember when they let Homer design a car on the Simpsons? Yeah.
November 30th, 2009 at 10:04 pm
I think any design that could fix the lame IR sensor issue with the 360 is good enough for me. Also if microsoft goes with a new design that would not incorporate the current 360 hard drives, the entire world will be pissed. Whatever they do, it better include wireless-N built in. AND it better not take software emulation to run 360 games.
December 3rd, 2009 at 10:08 pm
its to sy-fi
December 8th, 2009 at 2:12 am
I think its ight..kum up wit mo designs…jus hope dey make new and big improvements..like blueray…free streaming internet…shud have everything the 360 has and ps3 has and is capable of and more…..2 complete the futuristic 720…
December 8th, 2009 at 2:16 am
Not 2 mention not havin 2 buy so many gadgets for tha 720 like u did for tha 360..like wireless internet tha fan…small key pad things like that..those things shud b included or already built in..but buleray and free internet as well…wire less 2….
December 8th, 2009 at 3:48 am

December 16th, 2009 at 7:33 pm
greatest thing in the world
December 17th, 2009 at 3:33 pm
I don’t like this design very much at all. the people who designed this must be stupid, because everyone should know why it is called x-box! not x-weird shape!
December 19th, 2009 at 7:13 pm
How do u package this thing? A kid might have nightmares just looking at that design. Tooooooo futuristic. It doesn’t look like fun. Looks too serious. Seems like something too fragile and do they have a UFO department in XBOX? Please they can design something less scary and more sleek, high tech but keep it simple. The Xbox 360 design was and is still well appreciated. This xbox 720 design could mar the games’s acceptance to the world. Xbox could keep or maintain this design as a limited design edition” for the unconventional or artistic mind. I think they should send an open invitation for design proposals the public. All in all this design is “WACK”. Give us something else. Thumbs down.

Ahhhhhhhhh! This is a horror this design. I like the design of the actual Xbox 360. Im not ready to changer my Xbox 360 consol now because i buy many game and accesory!
December 21st, 2009 at 5:32 pm
Ahhhhhhhhhhhh! This is a total horror this new design. Its look too… BAD! I like the actual Xbox 360 look and style. Im not ready now to change my Xbox 360 console because I buy many Xbox 360 game and Xbox 360 accesories for my actual Xbox 360.
December 26th, 2009 at 1:59 am
The Xbox 720 would obviously never look like this because it’s not a box. They would have to change it to the Xufo 720 or something.
December 31st, 2009 at 6:56 am
wow exciting
January 1st, 2010 at 5:24 am

January 2nd, 2010 at 11:17 pm
This looks cool but is an xbox note the word box i think it’s guna be like the first 2 not cool looking.But hay xbox360 doesn’t look that cool and yet its ASOME.I also think they will use 720 in the disine.right now i beleave the cercal with an X across it is the closest or at least coolest “ideas” of what the 720 will look like
January 3rd, 2010 at 6:45 pm
THATS HOT!!
January 3rd, 2010 at 11:41 pm
I saw the prototype model and it looked like a flipping web cam on horse ‘roids. You would slide the game in from the top like a car stereo on its back. There was a green circle bearing the XBox logo on the front that served as the ‘eye’ of this thing. The back ‘bubble’ was clear and wrapped in silver ‘bands’ to form an X in the back of all places. It sat on two ski like stands and was the size of a 10 inch monitor. Having visited my uncle in the development dept of Microsoft and being one of their old testers I busted up laughing so hard I nearly needed CPR.
You guys complain of the look of this one? You need help. It solves the over heating problem by not allowing people to foolishly stack crap on top of it. It spreads the heat out in a sleek new design that is cutting edge and new age for a new decade of the millennium. With all the features I know it has (no worries I wont spoil it for you) I am happy they made it look as good as it does. The other option… the WebCamZilla is obviously not going to hit the market.
Take a look at the graphics here and see two rejected ideas:

Frigg that is random ass and kinda wierd but i love it cuz its different. so thumbs up its sexxii as
January 4th, 2010 at 10:04 pm
I like it i know some people might agree and dissagree about the shape of the Xbox 720 but personaly i like the classic box shape….but so far we have only talked about the shape not about the grafix or games im realy excited!!!
January 5th, 2010 at 4:59 am
these designs are terible
January 7th, 2010 at 9:32 pm
i like it and think it looks cool. and to the people complaining about “oh i cant stack shit on top of it” thats how ur xbox can fuck up because u have ventilation on top of ur 360 and if thats covered up ur gonna fry ur thermal pads and then get the red ring of death and then complain to microsoft about ur xbox getting that and getting fucked up and how they should have better ventalation systems when the one u had stock was fine, you just stacked shit on top of it and covered it up. thats like putting a plastic bag over ur childs head. and way to talk about practical guys. it is an interesting design and it will catch and be bought because in the long haul people dont realy care as much about the design as they do graphics, games, and durrability. so keep ur 360 and dont buy this if ur gonna complain about its design but dont cry to anybody when its sold out and u dont have one when u wanna play the later halo, gears, assassans creed, and left 4 dead games.
January 13th, 2010 at 12:39 am
of this looks so much better than the 360 its unbeliveable
i love it
January 25th, 2010 at 7:58 am
that is bad ass
January 26th, 2010 at 1:25 am
In response to heartAttack: I think your nuts for wanting to stack anything on top of your Basic x-box 360. Also To those of you who are so closed minded… come on people were talking about the future. Stop bitching and expect the new age. Think back to when atari or supermario came out. We’re talking about an entirely different generation. So when all the new games came out you wanted to upgrade and try something new! what’s so wrong with this? Creative minds go places. That’s why your not in charge! I support this idea, the style, and everything that comes along with it!
January 30th, 2010 at 1:26 pm
Actually NO ONE knows how the ”xbox 720” console will look like!!
All of these pictures are just some fan that made, that’s all I wanna say, NO ONE knows until it’s posted on xbox.com or when it have been realesed
January 30th, 2010 at 6:31 pm
