Update: Microsoft Surfacing Computing Revealed

Tech site Gizmodo has been told told that tonight, at 12:01am EST the division of Microsoft that launched the Xbox and the Zune will unveil something very special. According to the website it's "something totally new coming out of the Entertainment and Devices division, and it's going to change the way people interact with technology." The email (which was not a tip but rather was mistakenly sent to Gizmodo through official channels) also stated that "you really have to see it to believe it."

Update:

Today at The Wall Street Journal’s D: All Thing’s Digital conference in Carlsbad, Calif., Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer unveiled the company’s first surface computing product, called Microsoft Surface – an innovation that will change the way people shop, dine, entertain and live. Viewers tuning into "The Today Show" on NBC-TV this morning also got a taste of this powerful new technology.

I hope it is a 360 that doesn't break down!

Maddens Raiders6925d ago

you mean the Japanese model, right?

-doh!

Lacarious6924d ago

that's a beautiful shot at M$... lets hope they actually are releasing a 360 that doesn't break.... or maybe.... they are looking to replace all the 360's that already died?

Blackmoses6924d ago

how does this have anything to do with the 360? I couldn't find anything that made this even the slightest bit related to a gamming console? Even if that were the case, what is microsoft going to do?, release another console with upgraded features?
It's nice and all but, I can't see how this relates?

uxo226924d ago

Icewake, the is plain and simple jealousy. Let me guess, you are pissed because sony didn't come up with the idea. Some people aren't happy unless the FLAMES are burning bright. Why do you feel so threatened by the 360? Hears a reality check, all of these devices are here for us all to enjoy; the PS3, the 360, the Wii, etc. STOP HATIN' and go mow you parents lawn or something.

rosko4866924d ago

Microsoft didn't come up with this idea. They bought it.

JasonPC360PS3Wii6925d ago

Smells more like Sony with the PS3s under 100k sales in April and the Devs jumping ship for the 360 and the Wii.

I know the truth of the PS3 heading the way of the Dreamcast pisses you Sony fans off, not to mention Capcom pissing all over the PS3. Don't forget about all the ports looking like last gen Xbox and in some cases (Splinter Cell DA) looking more like a PS2 title.

"Desperation" nah not Xbox fans, more like Sony fans Desperation ever since the launch of the PS3 and the decline in sales and exclusives(which Sony has even admitted) Not to mention PS3 limited resources on some of the hardware. The only thing Xbox fans had to defend were the launch consoles that were defective but you Sony fans have to defend the PS3 and why its losing this gen and maybe soon to become the next 3DO. I'm sorry that the reality of this world has the 360 and Wii kicking the sh!t out of the PS3 but as I have said before "you can't win em all, maybe Sony will do better on the PS4" then again maybe not.

"Gaming’s Biggest Fighting Franchise"

Press X to (seriously) doubt.

Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.

Soy22d ago

And then MK1 killed it again.

DivineHand12522d ago (Edited 22d ago )

15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
