Is this news really that surprising (if true) considering the 4 year lifespan of the original XBOX?

 

the 360 has far surpassed the XBOX in terms of reputation and number of high quality games, the 360 is also selling well at the moment (in so much as it should surpass the sales of the XBOX by a long way) which makes an early release for XBOX 720 a big gamble for MS.

 

 The biggest obstacle to future 360 sales is the stigma of the RROD.  Even if it is now a thing of the past, there are many people who either don't know it's a thing of the past or aren't willing to take the gamble.  I will personally never buy one unless it's at the end of the generation for about $100.  The only way for MS to get rid of that stigma is to start fresh.



Keep this in mind when reading what I type...

I've been gaming longer than many of you have been alive.
