Ok, the operative word in that title is obvious, and it's only a symbol...but, I heard some very interesting information from someone with inside information regarding YOUR future of console gaming.

Firstly, lets stop kidding ourselves, XBox is only a success in the US, but nothing can or will catch up with the PS2 in this generation of gaming, PS2 still continues to outsell everything. So what are Microsoft doing?

Well...they want to shove Sony off the polygonal fence of gamingdom and they're going to give you something very special (possibly)...

It's gonna be an up date of the Xbox, a larger hard drive, better graphics chip (P4?), all built in with DVD, CD, everything in a single unit with a widescreen television!!!! Sounds like a bad dream? Where on earth would that fit? Well, supposedly there will be different sizes and specifactions, namely in the screen size, i.e 24inch, 28inch, 32inch. And how much would this cost really!!

Scariest thing is, it's out next year...so I'm told...

Next up is Sony's fightback at this Xboxvision unit (hope it isn't in black), will be their PlayStation 3, again supposedly for next year's release?! Is this a joke!?

Anyway, it's an interesting thought, if it happens, you know who you heard it from first.

Remember how Microsoft told you their console was made with the help of over 5000 gamers? They left the words 'Sony PlayStation 2' after the 5000...


Good night and Good Luck to you all

Sorry, my mistake. You obviously knew I meant PS3. Why even bother posting that?

I heard rumours about the PS3 before the just as the GameCube was coming out, so I didn't hear that here first...

Its all a lie.

Official word pumped straight into and when I asked the Sony dude who came into my place of work the other day and on the newsheads. There will be no PS2 before 2005-2006. Also, there is an XBox2 being developed, however its only a smaller version of the current one out.... and will try and help the dying console in places (near everywhere) where it isn't selling well.
