That gigantic white box you have sitting in your lounge may finally be getting the upgrade it has deserved for a long time. By upgrade I mean downsize, to something a little bit easier to stomach. The picture you see before you might well be the mini motherboard for an upcoming Xbox 360 refresh.
I find it hard to believe that the GPU and CPU are now one (as you would assume from the image), but maybe Microsoft have worked some magic in that area. All we need to know now is if the red ring of death is now smaller and cuter to look at as you lose you temper, and if you will need to add another room to your house to accommodate the power brick.

Come December the 2nd and the Xbox 360 will be able to do what both the Wii and PS3 have been able to do for months. The 360 will get a dashboard update that will allow it to download and play Xbox 1 games. The games currently announced are Fable, Indigo Prophecy, Crimson Skies: High Road To Revenge, Crash Bandicoot: The Wrath Of Cortex, Burnout 3, and Halo: Combat Evolved.
