According to a source on twitter, ms to announce their new console on may 21st. No word yet on how many details they will reveal.

Just ahead of their supposed E3 reveal. I guess maybe all the always online stuff made for some terrible press or something.

Dude, if the reports are true about the system locking you out from playing after it detects losing the online connection after THREE MINUTES then I will never, ever, ever purchase it.

I just got an email confirming 10 am on the 21st of may online and xbox live

I second this lol. I doubt they would go that route after the press but who knows after all it is M$.

I've haven't even seen it yet and already know I am not getting it.  I have just hated the direction MS is going with Xbox Live.

Too many unconfirmed rumors for me to make any type of commitment at this point. 

We will not confirm, deny, or comment on any rumors

I won't buy it if it has to be connected online. Hell, my internet already cuts out a few times a night with Shitcast as it is. If it has to stay online then my gaming experience will completely depend on my ISP.

All the rumors and just the general way they have been handling the 360 these last few years mean they are gonna have to do a LOT to gain people back, or just go in a completely different direction.

Rumor mill.  This is a pretty good read though, and spot on why MS gets shat on all the time.
