I think people don't realise that the announcement won't be considered big if it's stealing another exclusive from Sony, mainly because no one really cares anymore as almost every big third-party games are available on both platforms, so I doubt it would shock anyone to see MGS4/5 or FFvXIII on Xbox 360, because PS3 also got some of the big Xbox 360 third-party exclusives like Ninja Gaiden 2, Tales of Vesperia, Bioshock, Lost Planet...etc.
What I think will be surprising is to see Microsoft securing an exclusivity of an expected multiplatform title, like seeing MS announce the next big Valve title for Xbox 360, or securing Modern Warfare 2 exclusivity (timed or extra DLCs), or the next Level-5 project, or the next Bethesda Softworks title...etc.
Anyone really would be shocked to see Versus XIII on Xbox 360 after seeing XIII heading over to Xbox 360? Or seeing MGS4 port after a year and a half? I really don't think these would do anything more than fueling fanboys, but I guess Microsoft really cares about fueling fanboys... So anything can happen actually. -_-

But this is MS we're talking about. You know, the guys that thought announcing RE5 for 360 at E307 would be a megaton, despite the fact that it had been announced for the 360 two years earlier?
For all we know, they'll think MGS4 on 360 will be big news.
(And I fully expect the next version of MGS4 to be announced for both platformers.)

Haha, nice interview, never read that one before, great laugh!
Anyway, I also fully expect the next version of MGS4 to be announced for both platforms, but I just can't see it being considered as a big announcement from the media outlets, and I don't even expect to see Final Fantasy Versus XIII being showcased at E3 at all...
What I think MS will announce is a slimmer, more family-friendly Xbox 360 with probably a lower price tag, along with new services like last years' Netflix announcement for Live, and new titles from their already known first-party developers and maybe a new exclusive title from Bizarre Creations, and Episode 3 of Half Life 2 and stuff like that. However, making Xbox Live free is a big announcement, but it's hard to see that happening now.
Aside from Modern Warfare 2 being exclusive to Xbox 360 announcement, which is unlikely, I can't think of any MEGATONs, real ones, not one that is considered to be one from MS and MS only.
