Ever since Microsoft revealed
Project Natal at E3, speculation has been running wild about a new Xbox being planned.
1UP claimed the new Xbox is Natal, while TeamXbox
stated a new Xbox wouldn't be coming until full HD stereoscopic 3D TVs become more popular. However, during a presentation to the Executive's Club of Chicago,
Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer unveiled that an updated Xbox 360 will launch in 2010 with a natural interface thanks to a built-in camera and voice-recognition capabilities, possibly hinting at a built-in Natal. It was not revealed whether the new version would be beefed up with more RAM, a bigger HD, upgraded gfx and maybe even some more horsepower.
UPDATE: Major Nelson and Xbox boss Aaron Greenberg issued statements that this was just a misinterpretation of Ballmer's words, and claimed there will be no new X360 in 2010.
