Is a XBox 360 slim already confirmed?

I think Playstation Move and Gran Turismo 5 may have a positive impact this year.

Its as confirmed as the PS3 Slim was this time last year.  Everyone thought those pics and videos were fake only to be proven real.  Now the 360 slim has even more reliable evidence than the PS3 Slim did so yes I believe it is a certainty.

As for PS Move and GT5, those will be countered by Natal and Halo: Reach.  But as I said, MS will be the one with more momentum driving changes this year so you will see it likely sell a few million more than any year so far and the PS3 will sell 13 million or less.

@Bolded. So it's a fact that MS will have more momentum driving this year? Wouldn't be so sure about that.. Also, you're saying that MS will sell 13 Million + (2 Millions higher then the 360 ever sold in a year) ? That's what the Ps3 did last year. And the 360 is off to a bad start: Since the Slim the 360 is being beaten almost every week. You really think Natal is going to change that all? Stay realistisc, with only natal and some, without a doubt, great games to support it, Microsoft isn't going to sell 13 million. 

That's why I said Natal + Price Cut + 360 Slim + Console "relaunch"/rebranding is what will drive momentum.  If you really think the momentum won't shift I suggest you look back at 2007, 2008, and 2009.
