Nice "The Onion" reference! Too bad they wrote it 2002 when they expected the normal console replace rate.

"Junk shot 360", RRODed 360's into the BP pipe.

They already have that, it's called Xbox Live Silver. If you mean they should enable online gaming for Silver accounts, I say only if it is advertisement supported, and maybe limited hours too. I don't see why my service should have to suffer because some people refuse to pay $3/month (you can get a 12 month Gold card from walmart.com shipped free to a local walmart for $36).

How about restarting work on the Courier

Here are my predictions: a new XBOX with Natal Built-in will come out. This XBOX will be just as powerful as the 360. Prediction 2: Blu-Ray for XBOX 360. Prediction 3: Halo 3, ODST, Reach (one or all) are being ported to the PC. There's no way in hell that this new surprise will be the "XBOX 720" or whatever 3rd-generation name they'd give it, considering Natal is coming out very soon.

[citation][nom]Pyroflea[/nom]Natal wasn't that big of a deal, so I'm not expecting anything significant. WAIT, I got an idea! Why don't you release the Zune HD in Canada you assholes.[/citation]
Yes, be sure to make good use the the HD radio feature which is not compatible with the digital radio standards used in Canada. They would need to redesign the unit. Actually it would need to be compatible with not only DAB but the multiple implementations and codecs of DAB, so it could be used in much of Europe too. Although Apple devices have taken over there, so there's no probably no point.

Oh wait, I know! They'll enable "Other OS" support. Hey, Sony ain't using it anymore.

[citation][nom]fulle[/nom]I honestly think its going to be a handheld gaming device. Nintendo and Sony are both floundering, and this would be a good time for MS to try to do this.[/citation]

maybe that is true of sony, but Nintendo are massively successful in the handheld market, have you been living under a rock?
with the 3DS being revealed at E3 (and sure to be a success) it would be a really bad time for MS to enter the handheld market.
not saying they wont, but it would be really bad timing on their part

halo 3 and gears of war 2 pc versions. That or a new 360 sku with built-in blu-ray player or standalone blu-ray add-on

It did take more or less the same amount of time to get Halo2 for pc(vista only at the time) and Gears of War 1 PC version from their respective console release dates.

Hmm guesses ....
a) Portable XBOX 360
b) Natal to work with PC in Minority Report mode
c) Natal plus MyVu type glasses become immersive virtual reality
d) XBOX 360 Emulation for Windows 7
e) Guitar Hero/Rock Band for Natal with real instruments

They'll announce xbox 720 (and that Natal will be forwards-compatible)

Guys they did mention a while back that Natal was designed for both the current gen xbox and the next gen system..hmmm...

I think it is going to be something to do with "Prismsense" and their 3d sensor....put together with Natal this could be pretty awesome.

[technogiant]

sorry that should have been "Primesense" not prismsense

 

[descendency]

[citation][nom]fracture[/nom]Their big surprise is that Natal is being pushed to 2011![/citation]
This isn't Sony...

 

[jednx01]

Free xbox live? I doubt it, but one can hope.

 

[technogiant]

^ well I've held off on renewing my anual subscription....lets hope

 

[badaxe2]

Is it just me or has Microsoft become the most cocky, albeit still mediocre console maker in the industry?

[citation][nom]mattfoo2324[/nom]My predictions: Xbox 360 Slim (aka Weight Watchers version) bundled with Natal for $300 and some FPS with Natal technology. I won't get either one. Halo: Reach is all I need.[/citation]
You mean Michael Pachter's predictions
