Apparently, when the 360 run is over, it's over.

They probably have some new name for their next console. They make too much money to quit on consoles cold turkey.

Xbox 360 was a stupid name anyway.

this is so a rumor, it's not real. They would never quit on an amazing console like that. If they do that would suck, but I would still buy their next console.

It all depends on the success of Natal. If that is as much of a hit as everyone thinks it will, 360 will be left in the dust.

I agree, They may leave the Xbox as a thing of the past but they will never give up on consoles. They are more than likely looking for some new strategy to rise above the other two.

All the article said was that Microsoft's next console will not be called "Xbox ___".

No Xbox 720? Aww, too bad.
Maybe next can be the Microsoft Macrohard.

I think if Natal is a success then they will build off of that. I would hate to see controller-less games, but hey thats the future.

I think that they should keep the XBOX name. It signifies a certain heritage of the XBOX and the XBOX 360. It's also a brand name which has estabilshed itself well in the market, and if they keep the XBOX name, it will probably also be more profitable.
