Black 360…..Could it be?

 

 I have been really looking into these rumors about a possible black Xbox 360 lately because I am planning on getting a 360 soon and I want to know if I should wait for this new version. If the rumor is true, then the black version will have a 120GB hard drive, 65nm processor, an HDMI port, and will supposedly cost $584. From what I have read, it will be arriving in April. But, it is already March and with no mention of it at this weeks GDC in San Francisco, I am really having my doubts. Would it even be worth the money? Sure, a bigger hard drive would be nice, from what I've been told the 20GB drive is not big enough. But I have no use for HDMI and the 65nm processor will bee faster and cooler, but is it really necessary? As far as confirmation goes, there isn't much. Aside from a few pictures that could have easily been photoshopped. But the piture above is interesting. It is from an ad on Gamespot. I could not confirm that this ad exists because it is no longer running on Gamespot, but I have seen it on several reliable sites including Gizmodo and Endgadget. So keep your eyes open, but don't keep your hopes up.
