Microsoft has codenamed the next version of the Xbox 360 motherboard Jasper. The board apparently comes with some unannounced goodies. The motherboard contains a 65nm graphics processing unit, and uses less than a 150W power supply. Jasper clocks in at 25W less than before.

More than anything, however, is the inclusion of a 256MB flash memory chip for internal storage. This should make you Xbox owners out there who don’t own a hard drive happy. Get to saving!

Last month, Sony gave us a treat with the release of firmware 2.50 for their PS3. Now, as a bit of Thanksgiving cheer, the company has readied firmware version 2.53. The update will hit the wires sometime on November 26th and will bring along full-screen Flash support. Finally. The update will also offer a power save option to save your dying controllers.

Get your PS3s ready for their download now, before the turkey.
