Ever wonder why Microsoft hasn't released an HDMI cable for the Xbox 360, or whether the AV port was really capable of digital out? Well, here's your answer: we landed pictures of what appears to be the second Xbox 360 -- the Xbox 360 v2, if you will -- codenamed Zephyr. (The original Xbox 360, if you recall, was codenamed Xenon.) The long rumored about and awaited update to the console won't just feature a new, cooler 65nm processor, it's also finally added an HDMI port for full digital 1080p pleasure, as well as a 120GB drive, just what the doctor ordered. The 120GB drive may or may not come bundled with the kit, we don't yet know, just as we also don't yet know how much a Zephyr 360 is going to run (we imagine it'll go for the same price as currently so they can keep up a little on their expanding margin). But our very kind Xbox insider seemed happy to let us know we'd be able to get them "soon."

u could care less???

y??

HDMI provides better audio AND video...if u have a 1080p TV...HDMI is fuckin MANDATORY!

i was leanin towards the PS3 but if the XBOX is gonna step its game up i might just have to go with V.2

ALSO isnt there a HD-DVD player connection for 360 now?

HDMI would be perfect for that too..

the component output (blue, green, and red) can only produce 720p output. I dont know why people would spend another coulpe of hundred bucks to get a little bit better picture quality. i guess to each their own. i play on a old tube tv. so i can care less about HDMI, unless they are giong to do something with the people who bought the xbox when it came out. like a cheap upgrade, then i might.

I have HD from my computer monitor, and 5.1 sound, so like I said already, no need for the HDMI, and no need to "step my game up." I'll be more than happy with that 120GB HDD though, might actually start downloading movies if I had that.
