All Xbox 360 consoles moving to matte finish
The consoles will start to arrive in stores over the coming weeks, so if you really love the idea of a glossy console don’t wait much longer." Hyrb did not reveal the reason why Microsoft is moving away from the glossy finish for the 250 GB model (although we suspect it might be to reduce manufacturing costs) but did say that rumors of a choice between picking either a glossy or matte finish for the Xbox 360 console was incorrect.
A glossy finish might be used for limited edition versions of the Xbox 360 console such as the upcoming models that will promote the games Gears of War 3 and Kinect Star Wars, according to Hyrb. However, it seems that standard versions of the console will all be with the matte black finish from now on.
