Xbox Origen Disappointingly Revealed

The big secret that everyone's been curious about, the Xbox Origen puzzle, has been revealed. From the article: "The Origen Xbox 360 site has counted down, and it appears to be promoting a contest for European gamers to win a trip to an Xbox 360 launch party in the U.S. As for the updated site, it went live at approximately 7:00 AM ET. The tree is now covered with flags from all over Europe instead of fruit, as well as a link to xbox360.com in the lower left-hand corner. A Harry Potter movie-soundtrack-like toy piano is also playing a loop of a short musical progression in the background. Rolling over clickable objects on the tree produces a disappearing fairy-dust-like effect which follows the cursor."

The best thing since?

If you navigate around enough, as I did this morning, you'll find part of the competition is naming what the XBox 360 is only slightly less great than. You are asked three questions about the system.

Get them right and you get to submit your answer to "The X-Box 360 the best thing since..."

Utter rubbish, it even encourages you to get 9 buddies to do it too. I opted to say that is was the best thing since my friend broke his foot. Wonder if I'll win...

Um

The big secret that everyone's been curious about, the Xbox Origen puzzle...

Everyone - 1?
I wasn't curious.

Sorry, that kind of lead-in always bugs me. The rest of "everyone", you may now return to your disappointed curiosity. And I'll go back to my non-xbox-enriched life.

NOT a toy piano

A celeste or celesta [wikipedia.org] (used in the HP theme) is most certainly not a "toy piano." Listen to the "Dance of the Sugarplum Fairy" by Tchaikovsky.
