NO for 2 reasons
1) I dislike MTV
2) My country has Cut it because they ask for money and because is a Channel that advertise "Certain people with certain Looks and too much about Sex" than Great songs and real talents...
It's not a good channel to inspire Teens and kids, it's Unethical and hollow
I have a satellite Receiver to watch it but i preferred not
Too bad the Xbox360 was beeing advertised by that stupid channel

MTV sucks but the Xbox360 is a beautiful looking console. Microsoft has hit another homerun with this thing of beauty!!!

I watched it. But it wasn't really that interesting. They didn't tell much about it. It was more about the performance of the Killers than about the new Xbox

I forgot to watch it- I would have if I remembered.
BTW, I am a console hater, have been for a while now.. My PS2 collects much dust.
I gotta say though, this XBox360 looks like an awesome little machine, very useful- not to mention very powerful for any console or PC. (at least for a couple years).... and that makes it a good buy, and a well thought out and engineered product.
I might become a fan of it.
If it doesn't have force feedback for a good steering wheel like the Xbox is lacking, it will be a stupid mistake by M$ though. It should support all the wheel that are out right now like the Logitech Momo racing, and Driving force pro..

I don't get MTV but even if I did I wouldn't have watched it. Somebody mentioned that CTV was carrying the same program but I didn't bother to check it out. I don't understand why anyone would take the time to watch what is essentially an overblown commercial.

Yes, MTV does suck, and so does BET and VHI, a tremendous waste of time.

Garbage promotes garbage. MTV = useless and XBOX = rubbish. I am wondering how much this "revolutionary" console will actually cost. By the time its released it will be another outdated pc, contrary to what Microsoft may have you believe.

I downloaded it off bittorrent (we dont have mtv in canada) and I if you look closely at the games being played the frame rates are horrible! Especially when people were playing split screen 2 player mode games it looked pretty bad for such a high end machine.
I expected graphics to outdo the X850 or Gforce 6800 but they didnt look nearly that good.

I didn't because of the fact that I already knew enough about the Xbox 360.. which is a much worse name then Xbox Next.. which is what they should've used.

I agree, XBOX next should have been the name. What is 360 meant to imply exactl??? I imagine this is going to cost around 500-600 bucks u.s. with the hardware they plan on using.

Mtv is a channel that I never watch, too bad they decided to use that channel to launch Xbox 360, guess for once MS didnt do proper market research.

Wow now if only Nintendo could join the Gates team!! It's going to be a system that sony could only dream about...Hell right now, sony is probably redesigning a ton of $hit. I have a Gamecube, and an Xbox, and I love my Zelda, Metroid, Mario stuff...but next Gen is going 100% Xbox 360 for me. I don't think the other two can even come close!

MTV Sucks didn't watch it. 360 is a nice machine, but Sony has stolen their hipe. The PS3 specs are double what the XBOX 360 does. (1 TFLOP for the xbox, 2 TFLOP for the PS3) the stuff Sony was showing off with at their E3 press conference was awsome. The PS3 is going to blow XBOX away.
