@Squilliam: Let's put it this way: internal memory in size of tens of gigabytes.

It was 720p/15fps minimum. But what i understood, it was the output, not the native resolution of the game. Well, you propably are more familiar with the subject that i am.

ok M$ has stated that natal will work with EVERY xbox 360 that is out therefore no new console or upgrade...... unless all the new games work with the old system.

They also said they are not even halfway done with this gen.

so all this talk is pointless.



They have said lots of other stuff too that has been only marketing talk. So no, this isn't pointless.


i guess all we can do is wait for a year. i think its pointless as they have stated 3 different times thats its not a new system since E3 but to each his own.


That's what we were discussing, what are the odds for a new console and new SKU.

Microsoft on New Xbox 360: We're "Not Even Halfway" There

PCWorld: Okay, settle down gossipmongers, Microsoft says all this talk about an upgraded Xbox 360 is not only wrong, it's missing the point. There won't be an upgraded Xbox 360 next year, and in fact, we're only halfway through the current console cycle. What's more, Project Natal, the company's no-controller 3D motion and voice recognition technology is being designed for the existing Xbox 360, not an imaginary "performance-upgraded" one.

What we know: Natal will be sold as a standalone peripheral.

Natal will work with, and is being designed explicitly for, existing Xbox 360s.

Microsoft has no plans to alter or retool its existing platform circuitry. Aside from conventional manufacturing enhancements like thermal and spatial improvements--all invisible to consumers--the company plans to sell the same Xbox 360 it's been selling since late 2005 through Natal's launch in...whenever.

What we don't know:

We don't know when Natal will launch, though we can speculate about a general 2010 timeframe given the fact that Ballmer pegged 2010 as Natal's shelf date. Also: Sony has stated its PlayStation Motion Control peripheral will ship in 2010, so there's the competitive market incentive to consider as well
DNO SAYS: i would say the odds are zero.
