o.k so argos have now got the 60gig 360 and 3 games for £169. so now i'm a bit worried. is the nextbox coming sooner than we thought? i abslutely love my 360 and dont want another one to come out yet but this price is £100 less than what i payed this time last year.

so do you guys think the 360's lifespan is coming to an end or is it just to get more people to buy it. either way i feel ripped off.

I don't think we'll see the third Xbox for at least another 2 years. MS have dropped the price twice in Europe this year because it wasn't selling that great. I'm a little pissed too, I payed over 300 for my 360.

earliest by 2011, unless Microsoft makes a stupid move. Rest easy my friend, your 360 won't become obsolete any time soon.

It sells fine in the UK, where i think he is talking about. The rest of Europe it has weal sales though.

MS are just lowering prices as it cost very little to produce, unlike the PS3.

When MS decide to produce a new console they aren't going to sneak it out and surprise everyone. It will have one of the biggest marketing campaigns you have ever seen as well as bringing some big name exclusive titles with it.

The DEV are just now getting there system up to the mult-core system I heard the Gears 2 is the first to completely use the Duel -core sytem of the Xbox360 so don't look for a new sytem for approx 2 years from now

There are 2 flaws within your reasoning...  One - The Xbox 360 has 3 cores, and so does the PS3.  Two - You spelled DUAL wrong =P

As long as the new system isn't over $350 then I might get it, but if it has problems like the 360 did at release then F that S.
