Finally, a fully functioning Xbox 360! It’s pretty common for kids to go trolling on game forums and make claims such as having a go on the Xbox 360 in their own home. Well, this thread on 360hacker.net (http://www.360hacker.net) started that way, except the kid actually backed up his claims with photos.

The wires coming out the top are for hardware testing.

THIS IS FAKE-

The TV set that shows the boot logo is attached to a RF cable rather than the video cable seen in the other images. It can be seen by enhancing brightness of the image as shown. Also, the image quality is poor compared to the first image, showing more evidence of a RF feed probably coming from a VCR with the MTV Xbox360 debut recorded and played back.

What is it then? An E3 stand mockup, with the cables coming out of the console used to light up the front logo and wave green effect into the button, used in the Microsoft stand. They were attached in a "flower" arrange in some glass showcases around the stand.
