Microsoft's answer to the rumors of a slimmer 360 in 09

"Sounds like that rumor about a new, smaller Xbox 360 coming next year might have a shorter life than a red-ringing console. Specifying the release of "slimmed down SKU in 2009", Microsoft representative let us know today that "While we don't normally comment on rumors like this, we can tell you that we have no plans to release a new console in 2009". Yep, rumor assassinated, just like that. Of course, there still exists the possibility that Microsoft's just playing coy to prevent a little bit of Osborne effect from creeping in during their heated battle with the PS3 -- but they did go out of their way to directly comment on the rumor, so take it as you will."

Why Do They Call It the Xbox 360?

Heh... I think that the 360 slim would be too.. idk.. dont wanna say Copying.

but my point is that Sony makes slim models and Microsoft hasn't with the first xbox.

thus; the term "xbox hueg".

but really, im surprised someone thought this up. :P

Just because they say it doesn't mean it's true.

Look at the xbox, they never slimmed it down. We can only assume its true...but I personally would expect to see one when the PS3 takes up their sales.

Who gives a rat's ass about the size anyway?? It is not like you carry it around every day.

**reaperchad** · 05-16-2008, 01:51 PM

I rather have no more RROD's then a smaller console anyways.
