Microsoft Xbox 360 Makes Mojave Desert Debut
More than 2,000 gamers descended on the Mojave Desert for the official Xbox 360 launch party. Xboxes are planned to go on sale nationwide at 12:01 a.m. Tuesday. A basic Xbox with a wired controller will sell for $299. A premium version with a wireless controller, an external hard drive and other extras, will cost $399. Right now our shopping engine is still showing the pre-order pricing.
The so-called "Zero Hour" event, Microsoft's attempt to throw a party specifically for gamers, is being held for 30 hours--from Sunday night until 12:01 a.m. Tuesday--in a 200,000 square-foot hanger in this desert town an hour outside of Los Angeles. And to those who came to the event--from nearby and around the world--the chance to be one of the first people to get their hands on an Xbox 360, and to try out the 18 launch titles was well worth the effort.
