I hope it's not something small being exagerated like how bungie said equipment will be the best revolution in gaming ever and it turned out just to be a cool feature that had been done before in other ways.

The fact that there is a pre-announcement for the announcement tells me that this will be a non-event.

I can only hope it is finally an MGS4 Announcement to put the final nail in the PS3's coffin.

I wonder if having it coincide with the Pac-Man championship has anything to do with the anouncement itself...I hope not, I hate retro arcade games.

Keep it in perspective.. This is Aaron "foot-in-mouth" greenberg and has on more than one ocassion said things that didn't always turn out to be even remotely spectacular. This is his job he is PR.

If it has anything to do with IPTV, Ignition or any Video Marketplace related thing then it does nothing for Video Games. This needs to be directly related to gaming if it's going to "go down in video game history". If this is as big as he implies, why do it at a Pac Man Championship and not at something like Mini-E3 right around the corner.

Let's think about this... wouldn't announcing a Pac-Man world champion be considered Video Game History?

I don't think any of the above suggestions qualify as something that will 'go down in history', in fact I really cannot think of anything that will justify that title. 'Going down in history' suggests a new technology e.g. Joypad invention, CD-rom invention etc.

...It probably will be a price drop, or something free.

I'm hoping it's either free Xbox Live or something very good. My XBL sub has just run out and I'm left with a small collection of 48 hour cards that are included with games.

"Xbox 360 becomes the first gaming console to offer content from Logo, MTV Networks' channel for the lesbian, gay, bi-sexual and transgender audience; top anime distributors and CMT, the nation's #1 country music network"

This is the lamest thing to hit Video Game History IMHO. Now Xbox is trying to gear it self to how players get their freak on? WTF!

It really doesn't take much to be video game history, so I don't know why everyone is blowing this way out of proportion.
My guess would be something to do with Namco or Midway, and a partnership being made. Or perhaps it's Microsoft sponsoring a video game championship, and maybe it will be broadcast on Xbox live marketplace? Any of those would constitute Video Game History... as lame as it may be.

I vote that you will now be able to download xbox 1 and 360 games off the marketplace.

@Jerry

yeah, if Nintendo worked out some sort of conjoined deal with Microsoft, that would be historical. However extremely unlikely. Other unlikely yet huge possibilities:

-Microsoft will announce some sort of portable gaming unit that will pack every portable technology into one.

-The announcement of "Surface" has got something to do with this.

-Microsoft buys Japan and forces 360's into people's homes. :)

..Let's see..EA becomes a Microsoft exclusive..


Metal Gear Solid switches platforms completely and will not come to the PS3 whatsoever, yet hit the 360 on the same day as Halo 3..


Jack Thompson undergoes surgery to remove the stick from his ass..


Sony's Playstation branch is dissolved into a third-party developer for Microsoft..

Nintendo buys Sega..

All customers that have had an Xbox 360 'brick' up will be paid via check for the total amount of that first unit by Microsoft, regardless if they now posess a working console..(check amount not to exceed $400)

Coca-Cola is bought by Microsoft...

Reggie Fils-Aime is hired on as the new XBLA manager..

Pocket Live is announced. It's a portable, handheld Xbox unit with the power of the original Xbox. It also boasts free wireless based online multiplayer.

..Or..the United States Marines incorporate SPARTAN MJOLNIR (sp) armor for ground troops.

I would guess they bought capcom, mgs4 comes to the 360, new game, gta iv exclusive, or halo 3 announcement

I dought it would be revolutionary in video game history. If it is going to be huge it would be like a portable xbox, new xbox developement, new controller, or that motion capturing thing they put a patent on

It's revealed that Jesus is coming, the end is at hand..and he's called ahead to ask if he can borrow someone's 360 while he's in town. He needs his Viva Pinata.

Maybe is an announcement due with Bill Gates recent statements of the "non Wii" interface they are working on... But most probably is just a pacman tournament on live.

My guess is it has to do with Namco or Midway in some way since both are directly related to Pac-Man. A buyout of either would be historic, but not really a big deal to gaming.

On the other hand, it could be something simple like signing up Namco's Tekken as a 360 exclusive.

65nm processor is now in the wild?

IPTV would be video game history since you can do it from your video game console.

Of course this is all PR speak like razer said, so it could just be something small. I'll definitely be looking for the news either way.

All Xbox 360's are set to self destruct (Along with all games) on 5th June 2007 between 12:30 and 1:30 EST.

Leaving the PS3 to dominate all video game progression for the next 1,000,000 years.


I really hope not...;)

If they annouce Live is free I'll implode. Same thing applies if they announce a new version of the 360 Elite that has an HD DVD Drive.

I'd love it if it were MGS4 or Final Fantasy 13 for the 360. That would be fucking hilarious.
