Jason Dunn got a peek at the XBox 360 the other day and reported about it on his site. To reduce it to some key bullets:

• MCE 2005 Rollup 2 will be the name for the MCE update currently codenamed Emerald
• Emerald will increase country support from 13 to 33
• Emerald will enable XBox 360 support
• Emerald will not include cable/sat HDTV support (current gen already supports OTA HD)
• XBox 360 will render the full smooth MCE experience as expected
• XBox 360 will support high-definition playback as expected
• XBox 360 does not support visualisations for music
• XBox 360 will include a short remote for basic functions, a longer full remote will be available for sale separately

Of additional note – Jason Reports that Ghost Recon 3 rocks.
