Will a vastly reduced failure rate prompt you to eventually ditch your current machine? (- I suspect that was the prime reason for it's [suspected] creation). Is the reduced size alone enough?,  ( -it works well for Nintendo and Sony). I just want to know what you think Microsoft will need to do in order to motivate gamers into buying one. Would you welcome new features that the present hardware cannot support, in effect the creation of a two tier platform?. What kind of features would you want,? we've had the machine for a long while now, surely you must have some ideas. I've seen that Pachter dude (yes, I know) predicting the cost of a 250G Slim being $299 with Natal included, what are your thoughts on that?. 
 
I've recently suffered some bad luck with two RRoD on two separate machines withing the space of 8 measly months. On both anger inducing occasions (mid campaigns) I've said to myself, I cannot fucking wait till these ____sort this out, and finally put out a reliable machine.  I myself will be happy to get one, if it means I can be blissfully confident that my 360 isn't liable to clap out at any given moment.  The fact is whenever I turn on my machines, I always have a touch of fear running in the back of my mind - that's fucked up.. I have two machines because I have "the fear".
 
Thoughts?

If it comes with Natal i might pick one up, if not i have no reason for a second 360.

No matter what, I wouldn't get one. I already have two regular 360s.

wifi is the only thing that would lead me to buy another 360. I refuse to buy their wireless adapter.

" Free online. "

I've got a recent model 360 so I'm basically safe from RROD and the like, which would be the only way I'd get a slim.

They will have to pay me for the new hardware. I know they covered the cost of broken consoles...but 6 consoles is 7 too many.

if my current 360 red rings and the slim is out, since my warranty is done since it got replaced last time. 

I think I would only get one if my current Xbox 360 crapped out.  I've been on my first one still (that red ringed) and it's still functioning.

Wireless built-in

Failure rates on par with the wii

If I could transfer my current harddrive info over.  
 
Other than that, I'd buy one straight up, no need for incentive. I have the original xbox 360, without HDMI, and I've come close to buying a new model just for that anyway.

If my current one breaks then sure I'll get me a slim 360, but so far I've never had a RROD

less fan noise, wireless and a more reliable hardware. Been unlucky and had to deliver my 360 in for repairs 4 times in 2 years :/

Built in wireless, natal included, a quieter console and an easy way for me to transfer stuff from my existing harddrive.

Reduced failure rate, reduced price, I don't care about it coming with Natal

seriously reduced failure rate, please.

3 year warranty.

not much 
 
my 360 is broken and I was thinking about getting a new one anyway

Nothing really.  The next generation of consoles is a little over 2 years away.  I'm not going to drop down more money for a product that will be replaces in 1.5-2 years.

Halo 2 with online play. That's the only thing that could sell me.  :(

Nothing could make me buy a 360 slim. My 360 has never failed on me, and theres pretty much nothing that would make buying another one worthwhile to me.

1. at least 250 GB had drive
2. Built in wireless
3. Quieter
4. No more than £300

If i win the lottery....

gotta look dope, thats about it

Got a red elite, not gonna trade that one until it goes bad. 

Of course, more reliable than today's Xbox 360 model.
 
Maybe also:

• Make it more quiet (better fans)
  
• Add 1 or 2 more USB ports 
• Add a slot-loading DVD drive
  
• An upgradable 2.5" HDD bay

Not breaking once a year would be nice

A broken 360 fat that I couldn't get repaired for free would be my only real incentive.

for it to fucking work unlike the current version

My 360's currently work so nothing at all really.

My launch 360 finally died a few months back and I went and picked up new Arcade unit to replace it. I was lucky enough to get one of the new ones that had 512MB internal memory that had just been discovered as well, not to mention GameStop at the time had a promotion to trade in your dead units, so I only paid $89 out of pocket. The biggest problem for this whole RROD fiasco is the shoddy refurbished units that Microsoft sends back to people; if they had just sent out a new unit instead I don't think there'd be as large of an issue (though it would still be quite bad).
 
In any case I feel the Jasper units that are out there now are pretty reliable. Only reason for me to pick up a new 360 is if I decide to finally break down and buy a Japanese unit as there are many games I want to play and for whatever reason Japan continues to region protect their games.

" My 360's currently work so nothing at all really. "

A dead out of warranty 360. Which I have. So if a slim is on its way, count me in.

I would get one for the following 
1) perhaps they drop the price.  Since they are doing well enough against the PS3 and even WIi now, dont think that will happen. 
2) this shit is quiet.  Even though the newer ones are quieter than the first ones, they are still fucking loud, especially with the disc. 
3)  It has to be a massive change for the better, smaller and somehow better looking. 
4) slot loading disc drive. 
5) WIFI inside.  Dont like using this adapter 
6) More USB ports 
7) Smaller power supply 
8)  swappable hard drive. Now, if they do make this slim thing, they are gonna have to release a new version of the hard drive since if we are talking about slimming this thing down, will not go along with its new form factor.  So either they do put out a new removeable hard drive, or they go the route of the PS3 and have it internal but you can access it and change it out, which would be the sweetest thing to happen to the 360, and if this does happen, this will be the primary reason i get one.

my current 360 to red ring is the only way i'd get a slim

Much lower failure rate; please. I honestly don't know what else the new version could boot in that would satsify me. Wireless wifi would be nice, but knowing the disadvantages of laggy gameplay, I don't really consider it a high priority. Also I probably won't get it until my console dies.

Lower failure rate, built-in Wi-Fi, and the ability to replace my hard drive with any laptop sized hard drive without voiding the warranty or making it so I can't use Xbox Live.
 
Though two out of three wouldn't be bad.

 
Personally, i'd get another ps3 before a 360.  
My launch 60gb is still running like a champ, (installed a 250gb)  and i've clocked many 12+hour sessions, and thousands of hours of total time without skipping a beat.

No RROD and sound less like a jet taking off.
