God damn Microsoft is already coming out with a "new" console?
Also I wonder why they want to do 1080p when Microsoft though Sony was stupid for thinking it was possible to do 1080p gaming.

If you dont believe me then just look up a few gaming sites or google or something.

Too little too late... there are many XBox360 adopters who wont buy a new console from Micro$haft this soon after the last.

-1 M$ +5 Sony

I have to agree with RC, even with a newer cooler processor and an HDMI port, Im not going to get a "new" 360 as mine is only a year old. I'm getting the extended warrenty when I get mine back from microsoft so maybe if it breaks again they will start giving out the 2nd gen box

Interesting Stats. I didn't know the Wii had so over 2 million in a bit over a month. I wonder how that will keep up?

Also, I wonder will the PS3 pick up after blue lasers are more available? Or are the prices for PS3 still too expensive?

The PS3 doesn’t have any must have games on the market yet. When that happens sale numbers will increase.

Of course, by Sony had a HUGE problem having enough lasers for the Blu-Ray player as well this Christmas season, so I wonder how much did that harm their numbers.

no matter what techno-babble someone spits at me, I'm NOT buying a 2nd Xbox. I'll buy a PS3 if my 1st Gen 360 is obsolete next year

Well what I think is that this will be just a "slimer" Xbox360. Like the slim PS2.

I predict this "new" and "improved" 360 will feature a bigger HDD, HD DVD STANDARD, 1080p VIA HDMI and Maybe intergrated wireless and bluetooth but other than the last two everything else will be in is what I predict along with maybe a thinner design.

Whats everyone else's opinion?

I hope you're right.

I would hope someone in Microsoft's office would stop and think "We wouldn't want to screw the 9 million people who have already bought one, would we?"

Yea, it's what the 360 should have been from the get go. Fuckers.

When's the estimated release date? I'm seriously thinking about getting this, Forza and Assassin's Creed (when it comes out).


As much as I wanted a PS3 for GT5, I'm starting to realize that GT5 is a polished up GT4... which I'm tired of playing.


Woohoo, 500 posts.
