As we all know Microsoft has been saying over and over again that 2010 will be the biggest year in Xbox history.  My question to you guys is what does MS have to anounce in order for that to happen?  As we've seen lately the PS3 has gathered quite a bit of steam while the 360 has lost some in the Others regions and Japan.

My list for things that they have to announce for it to be their biggest year.

1.  Xbox 360 Slim, the Xbox is definatly in need of a hardware redisgn that will lower costs and increase profits.

2.  A VERY strong Natal lineup, and yes this includes CASUAL games, there needs to be a mix of hardcore games and family friendly ones.

3.  A strong dashboard update, theres lots of rumors about Hulu and a deal with ESPN.  Additions like these would be awesome!!!!!

4.  A huge sequel or remake,  Gears of War 3, Halo Wars 2, something in the Final Fantasy universe,  Grand Theft Auto 5 etc.  

5.  Obviously a good first party showing, we need to see something big from Rare, or MS Games Studio itself.

your thoughts?

MICROSOFT it again DO IT, DO YOU NEED TO WIN more followers
and will be impressive. AS has been doing these 5 years.
DO NOT underestimate the power of XBOX360. I would not
will be a bomb in the entertainment world. They are very quiet and it smells of something strong.

Are you speaking through a translator?

OT: You pretty much covered what's needed, Ben.

There will be a lot big stuff. Except of the obvious announcments like 360 slim, Gears 3 and Natal stuff I would like to see something new from the FF Universe on the 360 :)

FFXV timed exclusive on Xbox 360?!

Versus XIII on the 360. I would like to see that! :)

lol I don't see that happening anytime soon!  However I do think its a possibility that XIV will be on the 360 and that would be a sweet announcement.  So would Versus XIII but I'm pretty sure that will stay PS3 exclusive.  

I don't care about exclusives. If it goes to 360 it's fine for me ;)

So you're saying silent but violent?

I know, I said it as a joke.

Seeing the current sales trends, I'm pretty sure it will land on the Xbox 360.
