New 360 redesign leaked! 250 gig HDD, built in wi-fi, and Kinect compatible...looks like Natal might be called Kinect now!

And with that, the xbox forums explode.

[nubinatubb]

I am definitely buying that xbox and I am definitely buying kinect.

Hopefully that new xbox is 2x better than the elite is and with no rrod.

In an article posted a scant 1 hour before the Natal/Cirque Du Soleil event is set to begin in Los Angeles, the new name for Micrcoft’s Project Natal was announced. The new, and ostensibly permanent, name of the device is: Kinect.

Along with the name announcement came some details regarding games that are under development for the device. The games include the following:

•Kinectimals lets you train and play with 20 different virtual cats, including a lion, cheetah and tiger.
•Joyride, a racing game, lets players use their hands to hold an imaginary steering wheel — pull your hands toward you and push back out for an acceleration boost — and their bodies to execute jumps and tricks.
•Kinect Sports has six activities including boxing, bowling, beach volleyball, track and field, soccer and table tennis. To serve a volleyball, you mimic the real motion; in soccer, you can kick the ball or do a header.
•Kinect Adventures includes a river-raft time trial and obstacle course, playable by up to four players. On the raft, playing as a duo, you and a partner must lean one way or another to steer. Jumping helps the raft reach special areas for extra points.
•Dance Central, in development by MTV Games, brings a So You Think You Can Dance experience home.
•Star Wars characters and iconic Disney favorites will be featured in separate new games being developed at Microsoft in conjunction with LucasArts and Disney.

No exact release date or price point for the Kinect has been announced just yet, but there will certainly be more to come over the next couple of days, and we will be sure to keep you informed. Any thoughts on the new name?

[John26]

Now I gotta pay 320 bucks, AGAIN and I have to actually spend money before I can sell my elite because I want to keep my memory.


I am just going to wait for a Slim Kinetic Bundle.

[Drag]

ya im sure after a day or two i'll feel the same and after seeing the price of kinect at $150 i may wait for a bundle as well

[nubinatubb]

You can just liscense transfer everything to the new hd, or use a flash drive.

It's not hard, takes an hour tops.

Or if you're lazy and have extra money buy that data transfer cable.

[John26]

Ya but I don't feel like putting money aside for another Xbox lol that will probably be bundled with kinetic and some big q4 titles.

True, and usually with the first wave of any console system, sometimes they have problems, so by then they should hopefully be worked out.

So yea I see where what you guys are saying. I'll probably wait myself for the kinect/xbox 360 bundle, and it maybe even have some kinect games included who knows.

[Destructo]

I hope they bundle dat Kinectimals game. SKITTLES
