Xbox Formation


We just reported a few hours back about the Xbox 360 Water Balloon fight record at Coogee Beach, Australia. Well, if you're not from down under, I can be pretty sure that you'd like to see a few pics of the whole event.

Not to worry, Major Nelson has made a Flickr group with the shots taken during the Water Balloon Fight. 27 photos to be exact. Here's a few of them below.

The crowds look great, and so does the beach. Hell, I'm guessing those guys had a great time kicking some butt, and getting some freebies while they were at it. Stay tuned. Major Nelson will be uploading a video later.
If you want to check out the rest of the pics, you can make your way to the Flickr group here.

 » Yeah..suck it

Well..get this these people paid $20 AUS to participate in this event. They also got a bag full of goodies including an Xbox 360 title of choice..thats probably why so many people rolled up... It was a cheap way to get a game thats all..

That's the coolest thing since the yanks got jealous of the aussie lifestyle... oh wait... that's been since forever.

my mistake. I bet IF there was one in the US which there wont be coz most of u *****s are arrogant that you would rock up too...guaranteed. And you can deny it alllllll you want but deep down inside you wish you had the chance to go... i know i do.

I bet they have better live's than us.

 » ps3 sucks

things like this make ps3 look weak. If ms keeps having these, ps3 will fail. Sony is worth 4 billion, microsoft spent 2 billion on xbox live. Sony will lose with ps3 bc it is too expensive.

LOL ps3 will fail because its too expensive....it doesnt even have a price yet u git. Although it will most likely fail saying price will kill it is so not true.

Notice how the picture shows about 95% really fat and ugly dudes and 5% girls that could pass as dudes. This should tell you something. These people have no lives, and will never get a chick if they continue to prance around like a walking xbox 360 advertisement.

 » WELL

its still lame. i dont care if it were in my backyard. dont get me wrong. i like water-balloons. i like the xbox 360. i like chicks in small outfits, yet this is still grossly overrun w/ lameness. reminds me of back when saturn owners used to have picnics with each other.

 » That`s is so cool!!!!!!!!

Who denies it are obviously other machines fanboys. I agree with number 8. I dont think PS3 will be at the same level that the X360 is at now with these kinds of events!!!
