The only way the existing owners would be screwed is if newer games come in Blu-Ray discs only. They could probably do something like PC games do now, CD or DVD choice of discs.
Thanks,
Nelson
__._,_.___I don't either.. I'm looking at it from a business stand point. I don't think people will beleft in the cold per se.. it's would just be a new version.. like how all the orginal ownersare SOL with all the new hardware updates that MS has done for the current versionof the 360.. or as someone stated perhaps it'll be a new 'platium' edition with allthis new poop in it.On Tue, Jun 24, 2008 at 10:56 AM, Nelson (nelzp) <nelson@nelzp.com> wrote:
I don't feel MS is as evil as lots of people make them out to be.
Thanks,
NelsonYOu just said above 'Who's going to shell out the money to buy a new one'so why should MS care? =)

software integration for future version of Windows?I can't seen MS screwing 15M+ owners. The Blu-Ray will be an add-on.
Thanks,
Nelsonand you won't.. MS has never worked that way. =) if there is a new version those of us that have bought theold version are SOL. however, seeing the blu-ray IN the 360, or as an addon rumor has been shot down eachtime.. however, MS has never stated they wheren't getting blu-ray drives, and there's been plunty of prove fromother MFG's that MS has ordered a metric butt-ton of drives. They've gotta be going somewhere.and MS doesn't make computers, nor do they tell 'Dell' what to put into there machines, so that's a line of crap right there.

But how many of us established 360 owners are going to want shell out another $400 for a xbox again so soon. All those features sound great but I'd like to get my money's worth on what I've already bought. I just don't see it happening so soon.That Blu-Ray player rumor has been shot down every time. They have confirmed they've been in talks about it, but it was for integration into Vista PCs, not the xbox. But I wouldn't be surprised to see an add-on for the 360 similar to the HD-DVD player.
Thanks,
Nelson--At this point none of that matters. The issue that M$ is faceing is the fact thateven though the PS3 is a POS.. it is a really cheap (like cheapest) Blu-ray player.and now that the 360 is pretty much past it's prime, and losing sales becauseit's no longer 'new', the PS3 sales are going to jump.. and jump quickly (like they are in Europe)This will in turn give the PS3 more market share and 'force' 3rd party developers to figure out thehardware and make some games for the system.Right now the only things the 360 has going for it is a large established user base, easy to programhardware, and a networking system that works most of the time. But nothing 'new'.If M$ wants to keep up the pressure on Sony they need to release the next version sooner rather thenlater. Right now we know that M$ has ordered blu-ray drives, and we know they are working on aWii style of remote. We also know they dropped this years spring up date to 'work on other things'So here's the idea.. M$ creates a new 360, with blu-ray support, and the 'Wiimote' looking thing.updates the hardware to allow for DVR capablites and a MUCH bigger drive, removes the DNR BS frommovies to allow a direct connection into someones home network, and updates LIVE to allow for Streaming Movies(Via NetFlicks) , TV (MSNBC?), and Audio (URGE).they don't need really to update the graphics at this point, because it's still going to be a few years untilanyone really figures out the hardware of the PS3 and then figures out that it doesn't matter becausethe PS3 can't push the polys. now the audio because pretty much sound is sound at this point.and it puts a new Xbox in front of the people to keep the brand going until they can release the next-genversion of the xbox in a few years.

But... that'd still be the 360, no? Sounded like he was asking about the
mysterious 720 that I agree with Nelson is a few years off. They're riding
high on things right now and the PS3 doesn't have enough of any edge to
it to cause them to search for better GPU's.
Not to mention if AMD doesn't kill themselves the 360's AMD/ATI loaded
and those nutballs are working on a new gen of all-in-one chip that'd give
any '720' game console the ability to be triple-core CPU, triple GPU in the
same space. Right now it's tri-core, single ATI GPU. But they're at least
a year from perfecting it, producing it and letting it test out on PC's and
laptops before MS would want to get tangled up with it. They just payed
through the nose on this screw-up, they're going to want time-tested before
doing it again, wouldn't you think?>> Yahoo! Xbox Group Contents and Images (c) All rights reserved. No
