Make your own Xbox 360 game
Sony have tried it a couple of times with the Net Yaroze on the original PlayStation and then the Linux dev kit on the PS2 but nether really picked up the way you would imagine.

Okami Preview
Okami has been in development for absolutely ages but it's looking more and more gorgeous. 1up.com has just launched an Okami microsite where they are posting previews and interviews with the developers.

“Advertising” – The Million Dollar Homepage for real
