I've just got myself a 250GB Xbox360 Elite last week, and I am in no way disappointed that I didnt wait for the new one. The only advantage I see with it one is the built in wifi and the wank factor of having the latest and greatest. PS3 still pisses all over Xbox for reliability, speed, Blu-Ray and free multi-player.

My housemate has a Wii, and the only games either of us play are ones where you can sit on your arse like any other console (IE. Mario Kart, Super Smash Bros), so the Kinect has no attraction whatsoever. The Kinect will work with all 360 consoles, the older ones will just use USB and a power pack instead of the separate adapter on the new console. So definitely no advantage there... The technology is still in its infancy though, so maybe in the next generation console it will be worth a look.

+1 for the Playstation move.
