Whoever’s in charge of Xbox 360 ads over in Italy might be having a bit of a headache just now, because if you look at this Italian gaming site, there’s an advert playing for an Xbox 360 that looks a little bit different.
Assuming it’s real (the ad links to xbox.com) the ‘new’ Xbox 360 looks like it comes with a 250GB hard drive, wifi and something called Kinect, which is presumably the ‘real’ name for Project Natal. Here’s a grab from the ad:
This comes as Microsoft were claiming super tight security around their new announcements for tonight and the rest of the week. Utterly batshit bonkers insane, or whatever the terminology is these days.
We’ve no idea what the ad is all about, or whether it’s real, but we’ll hopefully see later tonight.

I think its probably just a speacial edition 360 to be released with Project Natal.
I doubt it would be a new Xbox as Sony said they wouldnt be able to make a new console until at least 2012 as there wouldn't be the technology available until then to make a console worth making. Therefore unless Microsoft have developed some superb technolofy no one knows about then this console would be pointless in making as it wouldnt be much better than the 360.

Yeah misread the title :S
Anyways, 360 slim, being shipped out today apparently, and only 200 quid. Bargin for someone looking to get a new console but doesnt have either the 360 or PS3.
However, probably what it should have been when it was released in 2006.

Microsoft have told reporters at their post-conference “media roundtable” that they have ceased manufacture of the current (old?) 360 designs. Existing stock will be sold-through but once it is gone, it is gone.
Though the Arcade models are markedly cheaper than the new 360 ’slim’ it may well take a price cut to clear stocks of the Elites, like that we saw with the PS3 Phats last year. So if you are not too fussed about picking up one of the new 360s, there might be some bargains to be had.

Intresting as i'm thinking of getting an Xbox 360 as alot of the decent games are PS3/Xbox 360 only and i'm sick of waiting for Nintendo's next big thing (yes they are the only ones making decent Wii games).
The only thing I have against them is Xbox 360 charge for online play (it's free on the Wii except for DLC stuff) and PS3 is too expensive for my liking.

Tempting, but I'll wait for a bit before I get either of them.

The infamous ‘Red Ring of Death’ will never happen on the new Xbox 360 Slim. Many an Xbox owner has experienced the three red lights that signal an Xbox’s demise but this is a thing of the past. Not because the new system can’t ‘die’ but because they have removed the red lights.
Technology is temperamental. We all know it and we’ve all experienced it in some annoyingly frustrating way. The Xbox 360 Slim may still encounter technical problems but it will just let you know about it in a different manner.
Speaking with IGN at E3, Corporate Vice President for Microsoft Game Studios – Phil Spencer – said:
Now obviously, the box has a way to communicate to you if something has happened…but yes, three red lights are not part of our sequence of telling somebody something is wrong. Obviously if you look at the success rate of the original 360s, we’re very proud of both the way the company stepped up to support the customers that we had as well as the success rate we have with the box today. I think we’ve learned a lot. That learning has gone into the development of this [new] box.
If anything, the ‘Red Ring of Death’ is a PR nightmare for Microsoft and has even been adapted to cover Sony’s malfunctioning hardware. This could be a clever move from Microsoft, although it won’t take people long to adopt a new phrase for however the 360 Slim informs you of an error.
