"Carl Ledbetter led the team that designed Microsoft's latest games console. But how did he set out to create a games machine? And did he mean the new Kinect to look like a smiling face?"
Very few technical details, but still nice to skim.

Re: Designing the X-Box
That was a good read. I really enjoy reading game developer diaries as well. Did anyone else subscribe to Game Developer Magazine? I don't think they print anymore but it was always a fun read. Gamasutra.com is their web presence if anyone else is interested in similar tales.

Re: Designing the X-Box
So this is the guy responsible for designing the ugliest console to ever see the light of day? What did he look at a VCR from the early 80's and say make it just like that?
