Well, it's official. Microsoft will be releasing an all new Xbox next year, and it will incorporate a "natural interface" and a built-in camera that tracks motion and voice. In other words, that Project Natal-integrated Xbox 360 rumor that popped up on Monday (and was then refuted and revised on Tuesday) ended up being true after all. I know. I'm a little scared too.

(read this ws.com thread for more info: http://www.wakeskating.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=27161)

As TGDaily reports, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer made the announcement at the Executives Club of Chicago today. Sadly, Ballmer did not elaborate on the new Xbox (is it just a special edition Elite console with a camera strapped to it?), but the news is still quite appreciated.

Yeah 360 makes more sense for this one than the current model, I guess that was aimed towards the new logo though.

I saw the video advertising for this console, I think it is very much possible to play games like this but very few games to chose from. The skate game is one of my favorite.
