@ Rocketpig aren't we getting to the point of releasing new consoles every5-6 years is getting pointless. Other than graphics not much has changed since PS1. They added online but that's about it. The wii did somthing new and it worked so shouldn;;t the next console that MS release be something new rather than an upgrade to the past?

There is always room for improvement, it's just a matter of whether developers have the budgets to take advantage of said improvements.

What I think will push MS to upgrade is their desire for motion control, HD media (Blu-ray), and new technology to extend their IPTV and theatre hub plans.


 The buzz on many sites is that MS will go the way of DL and not BR  and i see whay you are saying.  I might help MS other plans for the console but gaming wise i see no real benefit fora new console outside of graphics.
