X05: Drugs, Whores, Fighting and Limited Edition 360 Hardware

Like Diesel designs for jeans from 2003…

Posted by Staff
Oh Amsterdam…we love the Dutch capital. Nowhere on earth has more Scousers out on stag parties, so many middle-aged, West African, illegal-immigrant prostitutes, so many people selling fauxcaine on the streets.

Add to this psychotic camera-smashing pimps, cannabis so strong it makes you hallucinate for 12 hours at a time, and the constant veiled threat of violence and you have all the fun of Blackpool, UK, just with a few Van Gogh paintings failing to mask what has become a truly awful place.

Not fearing any of these dangers our intrepid SPOnG reporting squad hit the streets of the worlds most confusing and easy-to-get-lost-in-because-it-all-looks-the-same city in search of all things Xbox 360. And found these rather kooky looking Xbox 360 limited edition sets on display.

Now, as you can tell, the photography work leaves something to be desired, with focus being the second most overlooked element, just edged out by basic composition. You see, whilst photographing a selection of middle-aged, West African, illegal-immigrant prostitutes, after smoking cannabis so strong it made us hallucinate for 12 hours, a psychotic pimp jumped out and smashed up our alpha camera. Several nearby Scouse stags took this opportunity to kick the bits around as we struggled to clear our nostrils of the bleach powder and glucose cocktail we procured earlier in the day. It was all a bit of a disaster and probably best forgotten.

So there you have it, filler text of the highest quality. Check out the included Xbox 360 mock-ups and decide for yourselves if they most resemble Diesel denim designs from 2002 or 2003. It was a bone of some contention for us...

They remind me of the sort of graphics you'd get on the bottom of skateboards circa '88...

I think they might have been done by proper artists. And everything... :-\ That whole tat look is getting really old now. I think the Diesel jeans comparison is bang on the money.

It's another effort to get hip trendy people to play 360, and a bad one at that...

Not a good follow-on from the "hey, we're hip, join our crew" MTV special.
