Microsoft Announcement Tomorrow?

major_ms_announcment.jpg

According to a certain Nelson’s twitter profile, a conspicuous update hints at a special mid-week podcast, something that may turn out to be a major announcement from Microsoft’s gaming division. Conveniently enough, it’s happening right before GDC.

Coincidence? I think not. If you look at this podcast’s track record, every time there’s a mid-week show, something semi-big to big has happened: Elite announcement, extended 3-year warranty for RRoD, and the cheeky Peter Moore bailing out on MS for EA.

Let’s just hope the Major isn’t yanking our chain.

    I’d hardly consider an interview with Don Mattrick special. He is no Peter Moore.

    He could easily replace Max Hedrum Or that guy that kicked his hat around in the Pop Eye Movy. Man comes accross as being very fake.

    i really expect to hear something about the 360 premiums and the elites simply because no stores here have received considerable shipments since before christmas if i understood cc’s opertional manger correctly.

    regardless every store is pretty much out and can not tell me any thing about when they will get more only they haven’t been receiving any new shipments. circuit city, bestbuy, toys r us, gamestop…. everyones out, theres popularity and thens theres we just aint shipping any…

    i expect a hardware revision or new sku announcement but it wouldn’t be the first time i was disappointed.
