I honestly thought that a new XBox would be coming out in 2010, following Microsoft's addiction to the upgrade cycle. But there is one cold, hard reason that this cannot be the case: it's too close to that date, and there has been no announcement. If MS were planning a console release next year, they would have started to build hype for it by now. Any sensible console maker would.
We might see a new XBox in 2011, with hype starting in 2010, but this would be six years after the 360's release. That kind of longevity isn't earth-shattering by any stretch of the imagination, but it's certainly respectable. For all that I think Microsoft's influence on the industry has been poisonous, they seem to have at least come to their senses in this area, and that should be encouraged.
Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.
