I think its gonna be true. It makes sense with IPTV announcement. harddrive will be sold seperately for current 360 users.

Kind of strange how it's in the April issue. I have my fingers crossed that it's true BUT I won't get my hopes up.

Eww i don't like the look off the black console with the chrome disk drive,but i guess a new faceplate will cure that.

$475 seems like a reasonable for a bigger HDD,i'm not interested in it at all,because i already own a 360 prem,however the bigger HDD is of value to me,hopefully they will release it at a resonable price (a.k.a pc HDD prices)

Yes it would be nice, but it isnt really necessary unless you get IPTV. Right now the 20 gig is suffient enough, at least I think so.

Yea sure they are. You must think Microsoft is looking to commit suicide or something by releasing an updated console with features early buyers cannot cannot have. Anyway don't hold your breath waiting lmao.

so am i. your friends, my friends, me, and you. who cares what everyone else thinks. we know microsoft is horrible at keeping secrets. when they said xbox was coming, MS said no. then wal-lah the xbox. then the specs for the 360 were leaked , MS said no. then surprise the spec sheet was 98% right. then we hear MS is working on a portable music player. MS says no, then oops, here's the Zune. now it's this 360V.2. MS says no.

as long as the new and old console do not play games differently i dont see your point. i mean they play the same games. but one is an option given to only the most extreme enthusiest. how is it suicide, if the 360 , and the 360 V.2 still play the same games. just one is for the hardcore. is something wrong with that?

Yea I mean how many times has Apple released a new ipod that was way better then it's predecessor only 1 year after? And those things are like $300. I mean they all still play the same songs, but imagine how pissed the people who bought the last gen ipod that wasn't a color screen before the next one released with picture and video capabilities for the same price they paid for their color-less ipod the previous year?

I cannot stop anyone from believing the hype. all I know is that it will never happen. No one has ever added an option to a console that early buyers couldn't get. It's suidide because early buyers would be pissed and it will lead to some really angry customers. It will hurt Microsoft and I don't see them spending the money to add that feature. There isn't a huge market for it either.

You cannot compare a console with an Ipod. They are totally different. When Sony brought out the slim PS2 with built in network I am sure the early buyers were still able to get the ethernet port.

I agree, they definately are working on new version.  It makes sense with the launch of IPTV.  It would not surprise me one bit if they launch a new version of the xbox 360 this fall to coincide with the launch of IPTV.

Price vs. Price there would be no reason to get this versus the 20 GB PS3.....I mean the 20GB PS3 obviously has less HDD space.....but I mean it has a next gen Blu Ray player (which will win the format war now thanks to the PS3) for $30 more.

Just seems like another 80 dollars closer to the PS3's price that we all make fun of.
