Yes, it's true. Evil aliens, intent on the destruction/subjugation of planet earth to further their galactic empires...take their spaceship design cues straight from Redmond. In fact, they liked the design for Microsoft's Xbox 360 ring of light so much...that they thought they should put on the bridge of their super alien spaceship. Well I mean, really, who wouldn't. They changed the colour from green, to purple, as purple is a more fear inspiring colour suitable for any self respecting subjugating alien race. But this raises important questions. Did the alien ship have their four controllers synced with wires or wireless? Can alien ships rrod? Or wait...if the normal colour for a 360 is green but for aliens its purple...CAN their rrod...maybe they blue ring of death! The possibilitlies are endless. Or maybe purple is their broken colour and they're normally yellow...and they failed to notice their spaceship had suffered a general hardware failure. CARELESS. Anywho, without further ado, I must present the evidence. Two frames taken from Series 3, Episode 4 of Dr Who, featuring the bridge of the Sontaran warship, and the third image showing the Xbox 360's ring of light.

 Coincedence? I think not.
