Well the Xbox 360 @ $300 would be a slimline model also. At this point its hard to call it either way because we simply don't know how much a slimline Xbox 360 will cost and nor will we know what Natal will cost. Bah, I'll call it in favour of the Xbox 360.

Slimline 360? Is that even possible? With all the hardware problems and overheating, making the console smaller and more compact would not really be a good idea, would it? Wouldn't they seriously have to reconstruct the hardware layout? Maybe it's just me, but with all the component problems the 360 already has and had in the past, a slim line one will not work too well. I believe.

Yes its possible, you just believe in incorrect information. The Xbox 360 uses far less power as the chip revisions have progressed, its a little more than half as much as a launch unit with Jasper and we will be two further hardware revisions in by the time the end of 2010 comes around. Reconstructing the layout if anything would make it more reliable as they would be able to finally fix a few of the niggling issues with the current design which cannot be fixed without one.
