Thank goodness. I would not buy a new console for a freakin accessory.

Why was this even a rumor? I thought Microsoft said it wasn't going to be a new console back at E3.

Ask the internet. I believe there was even a news article here that hinted that there would be a new 360 to go with Natal. Don't quote me on that I could be wrong and it could have been a random post.

"no new console investment will be necessary" is not "we are not making a new console"

You are splitting hairs. I have no doubt they are working on a new console. Hell Sony is working on the PS3 slim which is technically a new console. Just not one due for release in 2010 to support the Natal which a regular 360 wouldn't be able to do as well.

Well about bloody time, I love the rumour mill as much as the next gossip, but things like this are just annoying. I will say that the thought of a new Xbox was intriguing though.

I think that Garnet Lee talked about it with his best conspiratorial, I know people who know people, voice on the 1UP podcast.
