I wonder how many gold subscribers and how much online content will be bought on Live in 2012 when theres over 50M Xbox 360s in the wild. If Microsoft converted that into $1 notes how big could the swimming pool be?

I suppose they could just tile one of the smaller oceans and be done with it. Will be difficult to ensure folks wash their feet before getting in though.

What about the dead sea? That way it'd all float on the surface and everyone could be like Jesus and walk on water.

Obviously you would need to monitor for salt intake. What about one of th larger inland lakes I think the Russians have a really big one that might fit the bill.

Good idea!

Lake Baikal is its name only 216,000 squares miles though might not be big enough.

So are we saying that if the 360 is allowed to mature Microsoft would be able to build the worlds biggest swimming pool in Russian. I confess I never expected that to be an advantage to console maturity

: )

It will be easier for people to get into gaming if they don't have to reboot their hobby every 5 years.

The Results are in from Microsoft for the last quarter so I am thinking we might have to scale back the Lake Baikal swimming pool idea and go for something like Bala Lake instead (only 2 square miles and better access) it also has the the Glutinous snail which should not be overlooked.
