Fair enough. I wonder if this one will go though the RROD trials.  "

If its real I want one, looks nice

After losing like a billion dollars on it, that is probably one of the very first things they took care of. :P   I mean, I would! "

I'm ok with this new design but this doesn't strike me as a more casual look for the natal audience.

I am using a launch 360 so I am excited about the new xbox because the HD, Wi-Fi (I hope it is wireless N), Natal1, HDMI, and hopefully less of a chance of red ringing. I will wait and see what the price is.

" But they never did! Its a joke now to get a RROD....  I know what it really is...a Sony/MS system. They have put their differences aside and made the god of all video game systems!  The PXS "

Man, that thing is ugly. it better be fucking cheap, RROD-free, and still pirate-able. Or at least 2 out of those 3.

Think that might be the real reason they put out that USB stick update? "

But not all data is transferable via USB stick.  Perhaps each Xbox 360 Slim would come with that "transfer cable" that you get when you buy a new 360 so that you can transfer all the data from your old 360 to your new Slim one. "

I'm all for Wi-Fi that's already built in!
Oh, and a bigger hard drive is always nice.

Seems Kinect is pretty much official, since USA today has a story on it, which reads like is tomorrow already (probably went online in response to the leaked ads). Which would make THIS official too, since why would a fake ad name drop Kinect?

" Hope that's fake. Can't sit it horizontally? Still using a disc tray in 2010?  Has to be fake. "

I don't see how anyone can think this is fake, especially after the Kinect confirmation.

Kinect is such a fucking dumb name...

How do you know it can't be used horizontally and why can't a disc tray be used in 2010? "

will anybody be secretly covering the MS Natal unveil?

Except for the part about Project Natal (yes, I will continue to refer to it as that until I get the name down), it looks basically like the PS3 Slim deal.
