@all any idea that the next xbox or wii will be out before 2012 is silly unless the consoles start killing people, or exploding, at most expect to see hardware revisons and size shrinks

2012 would be 7 years after the launch of the 360.  If you take Take a look at the history of console launches going back 20 years you'll find that most new consoles come out 5 to 6 years after their predecessor.  I don't expect that cycle will be broken next generation.

I give that post a 9.5.
