Xbox 720, now with 240 gb

lot of unnessasary XBOX just eat my baby or my final project hating there.

handheld, though. But I guess that may be a lost cause seeing as how the DS is the handheld god right now.

Either:
a) Gesture-recognition-driven product
b) Launch of @live.com email service
c) A hand-held gaming device

Place your bets

I reckon a hand-held with possiblt gesture/motion control implemented into it - "change the way people interact with technology". That makes logical sense seeing as Apple are bringing out the iPhone and Sony signed a deal with European telecom companies to make a PSP phone. MS will use the handheld as a starting point to drive the new gesture/motion technology. MS have being toying with gesture-controlled applications for a while now and this would be the next step. If I recall they did say it would be used as the technology as the future. Hmmm. That's my guess.

Can you feel the envy and fear in here. Even if this is true i doubt it will effect your God, PS3.

All of you Sony fanatics that replied I'm putting you on ignore you folks are too ignorant to even pay any mind to. Smokey's been on my nuts forever he's like a stalker. lol Smokey you have issues. See ya!.

You know what it's going to be....?

Nothing

hmm interesting...

Is it cuz the ps3 is getting raped by the 360 and Wii. Or maybe cuz the psp is getting raped by the DS? Man sony's ass must be sore as hell. HAHA

Motion controller for the 360 lol. If that happend there will be alot of flamming.

Sony girls already scared?.. or why that idiotic bashing fest from the start? ok, I know... I would be stupid also if I would spend as much money for nothing, like PS3.

My guess it will be something related to touchscreen technology and motion tracking.

ok DS is selling more than psp's but everyone knows that the psp is much better than DS and the same goes for the situation with the ps3, wii and the xbox 360.

HAHA, its funny after we got info ofthe PSEye, and if they come out with some "new" tech of motion detection. Wow, MS is such a hardocre copier, its not even funny. If they cmoe out with the motion controller, then all the xbots will know its over for them, because once again MS is copying. And dont tell em, MS had worked on it way before, the point is, they couldnt do it right, so tehy abandoned it. Now they are comming out with somehitng, which I am sure is copied, but changed maybe 1% to make it look like they did their own thing.

My bet is on a new line of Zune, a small flash based one to compete with ipod nano and to be released in Europe not just USA.

Mad out there idea (never gonna happen): The Zune phone

Although I think/hope M$ will reveal something cool, I never get excited about announcements they say a company is about to make a "announcement"/ reveal something to the public. 95% of the time IMO, its always underwhelming, but hey I'm hard to please. Every company swears that they have the next best thing since slice bread.....but like I said something "cool" related to IPTV or hopefully something thats pratical for gaming in the near future would definitely be a welcome announcement.

Some cool wand or something to control things....a universal remote control? lol I dunno, but it sounds exciting. A 3d HDTV (they exist) hmmm...dunno. Touch screen toilet? nah. Folding origami @ home device? hm

It'll be IPTV for USA with interactive TV, plus multiple channelvideoconferencing with the Vision Cam, also while watching IPTV/movies etc.

That's my bet!

HALO 3 IS LAUNCHING TONIGHT!!

...j/k, it's totally IPTV.

going with hand held...

lool for the first time i agree with u and i think your right.

This site has really gone to he11.

With 7.1 surround sound, HDMI 1.3, built in HD-DVD (but not WiFi). , It comes with a custom "I'm almost next-gen" towel, and the new controller that has the old red ring of death feature you always wanted to have.

Only 800 dollars

I think it's new Small Box(Hand Held Device).

but I'm gonna say either a Phone, or games capability for the Zune.

Best case scenario for me, a software update that allows some XBox Live Arcade games to be played on the Zune.

And Sony fanboys, don't cry. Here's a peace offering from a 360 owner who's not a fanboy.
http://coke.soffish.com/con...
Don't read all of them though, you might not like them all.

An Xbox 360 5.1 Suround Sound system.

Or

The mini keyboard.

then its just more crap into this world.

sony fans scared of what?? are u stupid..u honestly think sony fans are scared hahahaha if anything u should be scared by the end of the year...u ppl are sooo blind its scary - soooooooooo many top dev are already compalining about the limitation of the 360 its not even funny...and the dev that cry about the hardware of sony being hard to dev for - stop crying thats ur job and in time will get easier and they know they have all the room in the world plus power from the PS3 unlike the 360

:) we all know its true...

Dam some of your guys hate too much.

I'm a Apple fan and I don't hate on MS this much.

My bets are:
360 with tilt controllers and smaller processors.
360 with HD-DVD built-in.
Mini Zune
Zune 2.0
Zune/phone
MS brings back webtv.
Next Gen 720 coming out X'mas 2008

Just wait for tommorow and find out.

I bet its a zune phone
http://crave.cnet.com/8301-...

posted the news in pending, its touch sensitive table. But its amazing something which looks like something used in minority report.

a table.... haha.. a table.. nice.

PS3 fans have the vapors!!!

Damn it feels good to have people up on it!!!

its a touch sensetive table, move along nothing to see here.

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

come to think of it, we are getting near the end of the L33T's lifecycle, but a table? Hmmm... so many jokes...so little towels and (bubbles)lol

then it probably means it isn't anything that anyone was interested enough in to leak. I would not get too excited about this. The last time they had some super duper release thing at midnight it turned out to be barely xbox related and nothing of interest to me. I could be wrong and this could something cool, but I doubt it.

You have to see it to believe it...now you can walk and play games at the same time!!! Whoa microsoft!

Didn't we already go through this kind of c(li)ck-tease a few months ago?

Pay up this time, MS! I have enough money invested in you, so technically I've bought you dinner. It's time to put-out. ;)

it`s something that will exclude even more people from their future.

way more sony fanboy comments than comments from 360 fanboys

you Sony boys really are scared of Halo 3..and its still FOUR months away

the secret thing is probably nothing

but ya know it was just revealed and you might like it... I still don't believe this is Microsoft innovating like this..This sh!t looks like the future of a whole lot of PRODUCTS and SERVICES.

Endwar. It would be just like in the new trailer. Edit-wtf wrong thread..I didn't even click this one.

Is a waterproof TOWEL with HDMI and headphone output..

MAbby its a new fan to cool down this beast! Lisen to it Rawr! lmfao I see the xbox360 as a big black women in the sun, LOUD AND HOT lmao

new 360, limegreen with bluray, motion sensors and a jet engine

Help bring the original Half-life back to consoles.
petitiononline.com/Valvepet/p etition.html

William Gates will announce he saved M$ money by switching to Geicko and then buying said Geicko and creating a virtual Geicko hand held Money eating device.

cant wait to find out what's gonna be, a new 360 with bluray-builtin?!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wik...

I think there you can find a game that sold more than your precious HALO..

The 20 best selling console games, originally not bundled.

1- Super Mario Bros. 3 (NES - 18 million)[25]
2- Super Mario Land (Game Boy - 14 million)[25]
3- Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas (PS2 - 14 million)[116]
4- Grand Theft Auto: Vice City (PS2 - 13 million)[117] 5
5- Super Mario 64 (N64 - 11 million)[25]
6- Gran Turismo 3: A-Spec (PS2 - 11 million)[108]
7- Grand Theft Auto III (PS2 - 11 million)[117]
8- Gran Turismo (PS1 - 10.5 million)[108]
9- Super Mario Bros. 2 (NES - 10 million)[25]
10- Final Fantasy VII (PS1 - 9.8 million, includes Final Fantasy VII International)[109]
11- Gran Turismo 2 (PS1 - 9.34 million)[108]
12- New Super Mario Bros. (DS - 8.64 million)[72]
13- Nintendogs (DS - 8.53 million approximately, 5.0 million in Europe, [89] 2.1 million in US,[90][91] 1.43 million in Japan)[92]
14- Brain Age: Train Your Brain in Minutes a Day! (DS - 8.51 million)[93]
15- Mario Kart 64 (N64 - 2.24 million in Japan,[56] 6.23 million in US only,[59] approximately 8.47 million)
16- Donkey Kong Country (SNES - 8.30 million)[57]
17- Pokémon Yellow (Game Boy - 3.16 million in Japan,[56] 5.10 million in US,[58] approximately 8.26 million)
18- Super Mario Kart (SNES - 8 million)[25]
19- GoldenEye 007 (N64 - 8 million)[60]
20- Tomb Raider II (PS - 8 million)[40]

I think GT, MGS4 (if it stays exclusive) Killzone and this year & next year first-party titles will sell good and maybe even better than HALO..

Cause there sure are a lot of PS3 fans in here!

Why don't you guys take your own advice (pre-PS3 launch) when y'all told xbox fans to go play their 360 -since it was so great??

Why don't y'all go play your PenS3" ??
Oh that's right! Not enuff games to keep you occupied.

Jeez the first post is a smack at MS. Does anybody really have anything useful to say. Hell I almost miss that Nintendo thread where the Xbox 360 and PS3 people actually were able to talk to each other normally. (even though they were knocking nintendo at least they got along) Without all this bullshit. How old exactly are most of you guys anyways?

Sure others have sold better for the games alone, but don't forget, toys, calendars, books, statues, keychains, cups, bumper stickers, DVD's, spinoff merchandise, etc.

Only ONE Game originated Intellectual Property has been worth more than Halo, that being Mario.

Don't worry about it. Come to the dark side.

Oh wait, if you don't like it, don't come over. Nobody is forcing you to.

Lair looks like it'll be awesome. Motorstorm is fun. Why can't you just play the games you like and shut the hell up? Why come into a news story that mentions nothing you're apparently interested in?

Damned immature fanboys ruin what could be a good site.

we talk about the topic at hand? Huh? how bout that you stupid motherfuking god damn piece of sh1t fanboys. OMFG why does this have to happen everytime an article about ANYTHING is posted.

Ok its 12...what was it?? Was it that stupid table thing??? OMG give me a break

last time they did this it was nothing special.

At least this time they dont have us waiting days only a couple of hrs.

its all a joke, there is nothing being released the vieo they show of the table is 1 year old, so theres no news, goodnight, i waited up for nothing

This has absolutely nothing to do with the 360 or the Ps3!

It is all empty speculation at this point and all i see are fanboys flaming other fanboys claiming that they are not as lame as the other.

It got the Xbox fans to stay up late & it gave the Sony f@6boys something to do, since they're board of their 3 game $600 system.

g'nite

The often speculated but never confirmed microsoft handheld gaming device maybe????

and it's the table like many have been saying! that was not a secret if you ask me, but it looks cool.

look at your comments! *rofl*

i love the community .... <3

singing : one love ... one heart... lets get together an feel all right!

What is it? A 360 with good games?

omg - another stolen idea - I saw quite the same demos about Apple Multitouch Computers about 1 year ago ...

WOW this is great

Come on

if it was x box 720 i would be jumping up and down now

that Bill Gates has discovered THE COLONELS secret recipe of eleven herbs and spices........

Its a touch screen table computer, how disapointing. I knew it would be something I could care less about.

I bet $100 its another idea that they have stolen from Sony. 360 Elite is a wanna be PS3.

This is the most ridiculous comment section I have ever seen...over NOTHING. and Peestree your new here so you should probably shut your mouth, because your a idiot. Look your already at 3 bubbles, I really hope your not going to be one of those one comment wonders on every story where all they do is say the most negative thing possible.

" if its from MS
then its just more crap into this world. " That's the attitude! Keep it up. This way of thinking will take you very far in life. Honesly I don't mind having people around this this limited restricted mentality... if we don't... who's going to flip my burgers and welcome me and say, "Welcome to mcdonnals my I take your order? Do you wan't some fries with that?" Love it!
I don't know if I should feel sorry for many of you or what. You hate towards a company it's no longer healthy, it's obvious that it's already becoming an issue.
Another thing that amazes me is your video game only mentality. You people are asuming that everything that microsoft does is related to the xbox. TIP: Not everything is about video games.
This can have many applications in the military, medical, structural eng., graphic design fields. Ofcourse I don't expect you to understand... you are not capable of understanding since all you see is the sixaxes and how you can play RIIIIIIIIIIGE RAIIIIIIIIIICER.
I also find interesting that Sony anounced that they are working on a new Disk format and a thin screen.. and though it has nothing to do with games you people are all over Sony's balls...
Here is my prediction about this... this product will mature regarless of how much you hate microsoft (Trust me you wouldnt be the first or last) and you will still be flipping burgers...

People, please stop insulting your own intelligence... Sometimes I feel like an idiot by coming to this website and seem comments like, "Its a touch screen table computer, how disapointing"... I sure hope it's an attept to flame microsoft and not that you failed to tell the difference between something like this and a "Touch screen table computer". Are you serious? Can you tell the difference between a mouse and a keyboard? WOW! Just WOW!

Just saw the vid @ http://on10.net/ and come on you haters need to stop, that table computer is awesome! Together with that cool sony flexi-screen life is really getting like in that futurama cartoon. This thing is going to make MS stock SOAR (even more than they are already)maybe they should name it the TECHNOshamanism table. :-)

I want one of those for my coffee table at home!
I don't care if you don't like MS you gotta admit thats come cool stuff.

A movie about the touchscreen interface technology which Apple has recently patented. It is not a movie made by Apple but by some researchers.

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

LOL... Looks like M$ is copying technology yet again...

That's pretty impressive. It will be interesting to see how it eventually integrates into the home environment.

Seems like some really amazing hardware, even if you hate M$ you have to admit this is cool stuff. To those complaining that M$ is copying another company, wow this happens how much in big business? Anyway this type of interface really does have the potential to change our everyday lives, I can't wait to mess around with a Minority Report style interface.

I really liked the way it regocnized objects like those phones, how did they do that? The phones have some wireless signal? Either way it's amazing stuff and I can't wait to see more of it.

Microsoft Surface was in development since 2001!!! so its not new to them, it is completely original..and a lot of the features are not on the Iphone.. video puzzle, the ability to instantly just drag photos, videos, and music, onto digital cameras, phones, and zunes..there is a 15 min demo on i think on10.net or .com or something..really nice

Looks sweeet. Looks like his desk on that film 'The Island'? coincidence that their was quite alot of Microsoft advertising cameos in that film like the MSN Messenger video phone booths.

I wonder how long it will be before they actually become affordable.

First off the comments in the newsstory are very very dissheartening and really goes to show that the maturity level of this site as a whole is really something to be laughed at.

My take on this technology is simply too much too late. Within a few months people will have this technology in the palm of their hands with apples Iphone. It's 2007 and and people are on the go. Why sit down at a coffee shop or bar and share pictures and videos, touch a screen in which other random people have been using all day? When you can be on the move handling business all the while having this technology in the palm of your hand to use at your will.

600$ for portable technology

or a couple $1000 (at least) for stationary technology

Seriously it's like microsoft just can't catch up to apple when it comes to innovation, marketing, and design. I would be so curious to see an apple designed console hit the market next generation. It would be nice for apple to incorporate the ipod, itunes, iphone, appleTV ect. into a console that plays great games.

Here and Now.
Wow, that is truly Amazing.
I want one!!

its a really cool thing...to bad we only getting 80~100, wanted to see the future!

would be cool for RTS games( although it already is out there for RTS games, not this ofcourse.)

This could be the next big thing from m$ that pretty much rules the world in terms of market share in given area. a bit like windows.

i'm gonna have a look at buying some m$ stock

Creating new technology today to f-up tomorrow.

Walt Mossberg addresses similarities with the technology to the Apple iPhone:

Walt notes Surface’s user-interface similarities to Apple’s iPhone and some new HP devices, and wonders about intellectual-property issues. “We’re confident in our IP,” says Pete Thompson, general manager of Microsoft Surface Computing. And, he adds, multitouch has been around for a long time.

I smell another patent battle brewing.

This interface seems to take for granted that people won't mind staring at a horizontal surface for extended periods of time.

Can you say neck pain?

I know it's going to be expensive but that's nice. I think because of these movies, are technology is moving fast.

MS style =)
Another stolen technology....
I saw much more interesting footages about "multitouch interface" at resources about Apple aprox year ago =)
I guess it is Jobs's destiny is =)

Tell me about it! My neck kills me with my current Dj setup. I need to find a way to prop up my cdj-1000's at an angle. Add some heavy headphones on your head and can you say herniated disk!

So in reality, the technology you see on Apple products is either different, or stolen from MS.
Even in that "Apple" video someone posted earlier, you can see Jeff Han's name in the corner.

And he states in this video-

http://www.youtube.com/watc...

-that the technology has been around since the 80's.

So all of the idiots who said Microsoft is stealing technology, can go and cry in the corner since they're dead wrong.

Retard fanboy/hater comments to follow.

@razer
Yeah it's going to be a freakload of money to start off. I think they're estimating $10K US for the little 25" models.

Give it a year or so, and we'll see them as coffee tables everywhere. If I can get one the size on this video:
http://www.majornelson.com/...
for $3,000 or less, there will be one in my living room for sure.

I mean So many Lame comments on here, its pathetic. This thread looks like a Developers Multi Game comparisons thread between the PS3 and 360, when in fact this is some really kewl stuff MS has been working on since 2001.

On another note, This will also be licensed technology for those, that haven't read up on it much. What your looking at in the videos is really the first Hardware MS came up with to really showcase the technology. While that might eventually take off, this technology will be licensed to other business and services and they themselves can come up with their own environment/device/hardware.

So NO!, this is not the only Product you will see with this technology for those worried about neck pains. TOUCHSCREEN is where we are going in case nobody has noticed. Of course this is not just a touchscreen/table(well you seen the videos).

Imagine giving presentations on a board or something similar to Powerpoint and such. I don't know how far this will make it with Hardcore video games in general but there are plenty of uses I see, if you really just think about how we do things today.

Of course some of you can't, after all, it's not SONY or MAC unveiling new technology so why give a sh!t.

I'm a "technology junkie", thats why I work with computers, play video games, and get gadgets when I can afford them. Who cares who comes out with it. If the sh!t is tight, then I might have one..lol I'm already thinking about Touchscreen Phones..can't wait.
Ok the BS can continue...

This product is insane and a sign of the the technology that the future will behold...All I could think about watching this video was the movie Back to the Future...This is some crazy tech and i give props to ms.

So that is all the Sony cheerleaders got??? Comments about the Xbox360 which is totally unrelated to this news other than their only pathetic attempt at a bash. LOL. You guys better start your petition now threatening to boycott any store that uses this Microsoft piece of technology because we all know how it would kill you to buy your Sony equipment through this new tech. Get a good look...you're going to see this EVERYWHERE...well...except in your little make believe HOME world.

As for the other clueless individuals...MS stole tech from Apple that they made known only a year or so ago...more self-created fantasies to help the MS haters sleep at night. Take a good look at the video again. The level of tech they are displaying has been in development LONG before Apple tried to bring it out. Those are not the kind of results you whip out in the timespan of a year or two. Nice try.

showed something like this a year or so ago. (i know the guy works for m$ now)

but it seems like apple's was better in my eyes

didn't m$ also show this a while ago? it was staged then (you could tell) but it seems like its come a long way

definitely not as exciting as some things we were predicting last night

i would love to bang my gf on that table =0

It looks impressive. When I checked the site a few minutes ago and watched the demos, I thought they were fake... but they were real! Great job done by Microsoft on this. Can't wait to get my hands on this.

This looks truly interactive and fun. And again why are people saying anything about a 360?

WOW I’m flattened...holy crap not long ago this was science freaking fiction used in movies. Good, nah great job MS lol I wouldn’t think before I would have ever said that. I dislike MS for obvious reasons but things like that remind me this is not the real enemy. The real one is this technology braking, gimmick controller and kiddie games delivering Nintendo. If Ninty would win this gen and that big, it would spell doom for the tech pushing hardcore gamers. Why? Less sales, less dev support, less games and then maybe even death of real next gen consoles cause this market would become not lucrative enough. This would be a big step back in console history...ohhhh no, no, Big N is a no go haha

Cool technology. I'm interested in seeing it out in public use. They could use that as menus at restaurants.

Bring Half-Life to 360 and Ps3
http://www.petitiononline.c...

I go to a high school that the freshman class all had to buy tablet pc's. The tech has huge educational value and was used effectively in the classes. I can't wait to see what doors this will open in not only everyday life, but in schools as well.

Wow, very creative and futuristic! Looks like a winner!

but I must say if you are pro-sony you seem to keep bubbles, anything proxbox and bubbles seem to disappear.....also the agrees and disagrees seem to be swayed in Sony's favor...Is this true?

Back on topic I do thing the new hardware looks pretty cool....

I assumed that a huge chunk of the video game blog posts masquerading as "reviewers" were using shitty AI garbage to pump out content anyway. Everyone has the same damn talking points written or recorded
