@Slimebeast: The way i see it, released separately, Natal and 720 would launch too close to each other. I already said last summer, that Natal looks like 32X if they are still going to put it out before 720. The lack of M$ hyping Natal should be indicative. Either it's not coming out or they plan to put it on their next console. Of course, there's a third option of them not knowing what to do with it and that it's not anywhere near ready. I would be very surprised if M$ didn't see the upcoming fail Natal has.
The whole Natal seemed to be just something quickly put together out of the tech the israeli company that developed the whole peripheral for PC, had.

Anyway, announcing a new console at the same time Sony releases its Wand, would be effective to cut out Sonys momentum from the peripheral and being the first one out to a new console race would bring advantage to M$.

@Naum: It's M$ type of leak, ie, intentionally put out.

What M$ not hyping NATAL. Are you serious? They have hyped it through the roof. Look at the hype generated off of E3. That has carried them right through. The best thing M$ can do will be to trickle it out now, till at least half of those games are ready to show. Maybe GDC but I reckon another HUGE E3 again on Natal, and the media will be even worse than the 6'oclock news showings and early morning tv shows it got after E309. E310 will be Natal's E3. I predict Natal will be a MASSIVE sucess. Huge sales for 360 next chistmas. And I will say right here and now M$ will outsell the Wii next November and December comfortably.
