Some interesting Xbox 360 details have been published in the latest version of Xbox Magazine Online. A lot of old information is re-hashed but some interesting things like with DVD playback, only one Xbox 360 processor remains on, the other 2 shut-down for whisper quite operation.They also go into some detail about how the Xbox 360 came to bare such a name.
The concept behind the name goes a little something like this: You are the hero in the next-generation of gaming, putting you at the center of the universe. Microsoft emphasizes its desire to help developers create dynamic content that enhances this experience via its powerful next-gen console. And the customizability of XBox 360 also means you're able to get your gaming experience to reflect your own unique persona, attitude and friends. Therefore, if you are the center of the universe, you'll be able to spin in all directions (hence 360) and see yourself and your tastes, experiences, etc in everything around you. Voila! 360 is born!
