Sadly lacking a release date, this looks like it could be interesting -

Xbox 360 mark II ?
- Thread starter DOA82
- Start date
Microsoft said in their press conference yesterday that it would ship to retailers yesterday, so you should see it this week or next. The older skus are dropping $50.
Lets be a little more optimistic I had an 05 360 that lasted 3 years till I sold it in and no RROD
The RROD was an issue for the first Xbox 360's created when it was released. Since that time, the RROD has decreased by more than half, and the last thing I've seen issues have been reported at about 20-25 percent, most of those being Xbox's that are 3 or more years old. I've had my Xbox for three years with no problems. My borther has had one for five years with very little issues. And friends that have had their's just as long with no issues with the RROd. The RROD is just a PS3 fan boy's failing attempt at trying to bash the Xbox.
And how do you know this??
I bet these won't RROD because MS have already tried to address that problem with the current HDMI models and will have made sure this new design won't suffer from the RROD.

what the fuck you lookin at?
It's backed by facts and figures. The RROD was a major issue, not so much now, but it's still a problem.
A friend of mine bought an elite cause his launch model took a shit. Same thing happened to his elite that was suppose to be immune to the RROD
Everything I've seen so far points to yes.
The thing that makes me mad is that I don't look at this new 360 model and think "this would be a nice upgrade if I ever decide to get one".
I think "I guess I'll get this model if I decide I still want to play 360 games when this one breaks".
You get a bit jaded when you've had multiple consoles RROD like I have.

Some are calling it the Red Dot Of Death now,since it seems that someone has gotten it already.

Saw it and thought about it, but decided to buy a new ps3 after my old one croaked after 3 years. I sold my xbox 3 years ago, it seems a backwards step to buy one again. Plus I have lots of DLC I can get back for my new PS3.
