If MS does include Kinect2 in every box, $500 is not too high, especially if they combine it with a Live contract offer and bring the price down to $300 as mentioned. While I don't like that type of deal, a lot of new consumers would.

"– Nintendo’s core first party line up for E3 will be the next 3D Mario game that will be out by Holiday 2013, a next Zelda adventure for the Nintendo 3ds " I stopped reading there, only these 2 games are enough to make me super super happy for 2013 holidays. I hope these rumours are true!!!

Such detailed rumors.

Excitement level x1000000!

The Omniviewer sounds like the next of Sony's hobbies that they'll try to push and sadly waste valuable resources on.

Interesting stuff though. With expensive Sony and MS consoles WiiU will have a good time.

Looks like Wii U will miss out on key third party titles again. Good thing I just purchased it for the first party offerings.

Hopefully all the awesome games come out on PC! Otherwise I'll be forced to purchase the nextbox.

Some nice info. And here i am still thinking no Omni next year. (change the name please...)
So much games still coming for ps3, wonder who has the money come summer to buy the new console...

What actually makes this rumor believable is this

Nintendo has also been shopping around for third party developers where instead of buying them outright.

That has already been confirmed. So this stuff could be true and if so wow for all 3. Good job

Yep. That's what makes this a good list. There is a lot of really believable content that its hard to toss it all out. Personally, I'm good with it all and see that, to me, each company has made some mistakes.

1) Nintendo should have spent a bit more on the CPU/RAM (speed)

2) Sony should drop their glasses idea all together

3) MS should make the console cheaper somehow, without contracts

But without those quirks it just wouldn't be those individual companies. We've all seen these things coming and as such must accomodate for them.

I kind of like the idea of the glasses personally.  Ive been wanting someone to do VR for a while and this seems like a step forward.  MS seems to be making Kinect actually relevant to hardcore gamers as they can combine the features with a controller. And Nintendo being agressive with 3rd party shows that they are prepared this time in every area.  

The only thing that shocks me though is PS4 (I dont believe they will call it Omni, I think it's just a code name like Natal/Kinect) releasing before the NeXBox.  I

d be really surprised if that happens, specially with Last of Us coming to PS3. It's plausible though.

BTW best thread of the day goes to you in my opinion.  I don't understand why the other person left all this info out.
