MTV to debut Xbox2

The next Xbox console will be debuted on May 12 on MTV at 8:30 P.M. CST. Microsoft has reached a marketing deal with MTV to allow the Xbox to be featured in a half-hour long show. PC World has an article with more information on the deal and resulting show.

Personally I think it's pretty cool that they are allowing the device to be featured first on MTV, as opposed to a big trade show where fans don't have as much access to viewing it. Of course this show will be more or less a teaser until they do debut it at E3, but it's a start.

    can you say pr stunt? ms is just pissed that Sony got a slot at E3 for presentation 3 hours earlier than they did.

    also i thought it was 8 not 830

    Yeah, and I can't wait to see that TrimSpa Infomercial at 3 AM on UPN, either!

    TrimSpa, that's a favorite of mine.

    Yeah, it probably is just hype, but hey I'll probably watch it. That's saying something too because I don't watch much TV. That said if they're not going to give me actual details, I'll be shutting it off real quick.
