Steve Ballmer announces "new Xbox 360" will be released in 2010 |
Ó
Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer took the floor at The Executive's Club of
Chicago earlier today, discussing the role and importance of innovation
in changing economic times. His case in point? A new Xbox 360 will hit
store shelves in 2010.TG Daily reports that the new device will be equipped with technology that is “really, really, close” to an actuality. The console will also come with a built-in camera with the ability to recognize movement and voice.
Sounds like an Xbox 360 with a built-in Natal. Or will this be just the Natal, which will have a console-like release? Microsoft has said that Natal will run on the existing 360 so you don't have to get a new one. Details are pretty scant, but we can bet Aaron Greenberg and the rest of the Microsoft execs to hand out more details in the coming days.
More on Microsoft, Xbox 360, and Natal:
- Microsoft confirms 512 MB Xbox 360 Arcade, now shipipng as standard models
- Shane Kim explains why Rare was a no-show at E3: busy with Natal projects
- Aaron Greenberg thinks it's nice that the Wii and the PS3 are sharing the same space, but Natal would leapfrog over them both

They will actually put Wifi Into this one and not charge people a ridiculous $100 for an adapter.....
its microsoft remember.
xbox360 natal will probably more expensive than current elite with no HDD. just the natal on an arcade SKU.
then the xbox360 natal elite, still no wifi, probably try to sell it at same price if not more expensive than the PS3.
they peddeling those add on peripherals
Only idiots wifi for gaming, anyway. Gods do I wish there was an option to not play with people using wifi. HARDWIRE YOUR GAMES, PEOPLE. YOUR CRAP PING KILLS MY SFIV GROOVE. THANK YOU. In a FPS, sure, take your crap ping and die with it. I dont care.
Yes, I'm pointing this out with PS3 and 360 owners. (Also, lulz, my PS3 wifi doesn't work unless the unit is standing vertically, horizontally it just.. .doesn't function. Never did figure that one out.)
WiFi is not the bottleneck.
You'd have to have a throughput of ~16% on a G network to match the upper limits of my downstream bandwidth and have only .02% to match my upstream.
Blame the ISP, not the hardware.
if youre getting 54Mbps on wifi
you'de have to be getting a hell fast internet plan to create a bottle neck
if your wifi is 54Mbps wifi and net is say 21Mbps then you have more than enough bandwidth to carry the net signal, it's logic
as long as LAN and WLAN connections are faster than your net speed then wired vs wireless makes no difference at all (unless of course you have no security and someone is stealing your bandwidth)
There is absolutely nothing wrong with Wi-fi.
Me and my buddy (on ps3's) play sf4 on wi-fi and get a full green connection.
I also get games in Unreal with a 30ms ping....which is about as good as it gets....
As a network technician i can assure you that there is a difference in quality, your less likley to lose packets with a wired connection as well as a lot of people dont get the 54Mbps because they have the router on the other side of the house limiting the connection speed drastically
get a laptop, do a ping on any website via Wifi. Use the very same laptop and connect the router with a cable, and do a ping on the same website..... the cable will always be faster.
