Microsoft sent a press release describing Bill Gates' unveiling of the Xbox at this year's Consumer Electronics Show in a demonstration that featured "The Rock" of WWF fame (Xbox meets the XFL, or some such thing). The release goes on with current system specs and a description of the couple of pre-release games they demonstrated. Meanwhile, www.xbox.com is now sporting an interactive Flash animation featuring the upcoming console system, and Planet GeForce has re-posted some Xbox pictures they had previously pulled, as well as some new ones, while ActiveXBox' CES Roundup recaps the speech, and there's an XBox chat log on XboxFaction featuring comments from MS' J Allard.
