Default Not For Noobs, More info Wednesday

I contacted the Razer Guy from Razer several times:

First I asked if Razer is going to make any Xbox 360 products:

Quote:
We'd love to but those wonderful folks at Microsoft want to keep the
controller playing field level. That means no advanced technology
whereby one player might have an advantage over another. IMO they are
not considering the Xbox Live player who will soon be playing against PC
users who will dominate because they have a keyboard and mouse. The
controller offered today just can't complete.

If you are really interested in having advanced controller technology I
suggest you and some of your friends email the Xbox people. We have
controller technology today that would truly kick ass.
Later I asked if he was aware that the Razer logo was on the Not For Noobs website. His reply:

Quote:
More info to come next Wednesday.
Leipzig anyone?

The timer seems to end on Friday at 24.00 Europe time. Had to edit, it´s not Thursday 24.00 but Friday.

Wednesday is the press only day at Leipzig where me and Nino will be present. I doubt if Microsoft will unveil their nublet secret there.

Pretty weird that when I first asked if Razer is going to make any products for the Xbox 360 he said no. When I later asked him what the Razer logo was doing on the Not For Noobs site he said more news next Wednesday.

It's a good idea that keyboard and mouse aren't going to be made, go get a PC for that.
I bet it will be "an amazing controller that will be the best thing ever made ever and have 300 features, but will cost $455 to buy."

There isn't anything saying specifically that it will be for Xbox 360, though I bet it will.

Well when I asked the Razer Guy if Razer is going to make products for the 360 he clearly said no (see first post). The only thing he said about the website was that more news would be revealed on Wednesday (probably via the mailing list). The Microsoft logo is on the Not For Noobs website but the 360 logo isn´t so who knows...

Well, if they can't figure out how to make controls comparable between a controller and a keyboard with a mouse, we might need a special controler from Razer , which makes specialized ones.

Hmm yes the Microsoft logo is gone.

Guys that middle number of the timer isn´t that days? It´s now on 88 so that would make november 19th. And guess what?

Our tip box this morning taunted us with tantalizing shots of the Razer Pro|Type Multimedia Keyboard that allegedly docks with the Microsoft Zune media player. Sketchy information so far tells us the keyboard will be released in November of this year

It's hours:minutes:seconds:miliseconds

I just brought it up, and it says 44 hours 89 minutes(Which still doesn't make sense.).

They're designing a keyboard dock for a player whose design isn't finalised yet? Good luck with that...

Press Release

It does look pretty good actually (for a mouse...), although my PC's so slow and unresponsive that my gaming will still suck, regardless of how accurate the mouse is.

Doesn't matter what mouse you got, if you smoke at your PC table, it's going to fuck it up.
