Wii redesign? They dont NEED to add anything do they?

360 redesign? Doubt it, considering PS consoles always have a "slim" version, MS wont want to seem like the copy-cat. Not to forget, MS hardware = "eek"

"MS hardware = "eek""

Because the PS2 was a great peice of hardware, and the original Xbox was prone to failure 50% of the time?

Sony and Microsoft have had their mishaps in that area, that doesn't mean Microsoft are bad at making hardware

....

So?

Has the 360 been the most problematic hardware this gen? Yes.

Does the PS2 have anything to do with the thread? No.

Do i think MS want to have another $1Billion payout to fix a bunch more consoles? No.

Ugh ..

Yes you're talking about Microsoft being bad at making hardware, when Sony fucked up as well last gen and Microsoft were pretty good on that front.

What's to say Microsoft will let that happen again .. you're acting as if every new xbox console is going to be plauged with problems

Seriously Carl get it together, you're acting like you own the place lately ...

360 has had more problems than i can shake a stick at. That's why.

Overheating problems - 360 has a bunch of them, despite having the (huge) power brick external. How would they combat these with an even slimmer 360 with less fans? Not to mention, power brick size? HDD placement? Etc...

Chances are it will be plagued with problems, just like the 360 is now.

And no... Im not. Carry on with that attitude and i will have you removed from my sit- Nevermind...

So we ignore all past efforts and concentrate on the fact the 360 was a bad piece of hardware because it was rushed.

There are a lot of changes that can and already have happened to make a slim 360 possible without any problems, Microsoft would never let RROD happen again.

P.S your joke isn't funny, stick to being serious 100% of the time

I don't know what Nintendo could do with the Wii besides releasing more colours and maybe a Wii with HDMI. But I think Wii still is far from needing it.

A 360 slim, on the other hand. Yes, please.

A. That's NOT the actual Slim PS3 design, look again you guys.

B. The Slim is sexier than you thin. Once you own one, you have a much better appreciation for it, this of course comes from a guy who also still owns an original 60GB PS3.

CHEATER!  Lol   (no idea why I said that.... must be feeling hyper today)

I dont even know why i bother with you ¬_¬

Fine. 360 Slim will be a godsend, no problems, no HDD, will sell 100Million and will have a 0.1% failure rate. MS will destroy Sony for the rest of the gen, with no problems.

Now smile. It might never happen.

What a childish and pathetic thing to say, all I'm simply trying to get across is that you shouldn't make assumptions that Microsoft can't make good hardware. and Yes you were.

Don't make stupid comments then, I was up for an intelligent debate before you started spouting rubbish .. again

See... You just have to carry it on...

Again

I was replying to your post

quite hypocritical of you for telling me I'm the one carrying it on

 

OT: I reckon September 2010, a redesigned (not nessaccerily slim) 360 with Natal bundled will launch. It's about time Microsoft put wifi built in as well (though they won't because it's a money spinner for them)

$99 redesigned Natal bundled arcade FTW!

Carl2291, Seece is right in this case. The PS1, PS2, and PSP all had significant hardware issues. The PS1 had DRE and overheating issues. The PS2 had significant DRE issues. The PSP had dead pixel and misaligned button issues. If Sony can put out a more durable product like the PS3 after all of that, why couldn't a 360 redesign be more reliable. Especially when the original Xbox was more reliable than the PS1 and PS2.
