To and fro the island.
Earlier today, at the E3 2010 Microsoft Press Conference, Microsoft made a move that shocked the audience. This move is now being referred to as someone of an "Oprah effect". So, what did Microsoft do? Like when Oprah gave away 200 brand new cars, Microsoft gave away newly modeled Xbox 360's to everyone in the audience. For a moment, the entire audience was still, not believing what they had just heard. It wasn't long before everyone was standing and clapping at the exciting news.
Sure, you can call it a bribe, as many people are. Even then, it is without any need to say that what Microsoft did was generous, and that is got them quite a bit of a reputation boost at the same time.
Sony, being Microsoft's closest competitor on the gaming market, will likely retaliate with some generosity of their own. What will they do? How will they make it better than Microsoft's "Oprah effect"? Perhaps they didn't have anything like that planned... But if that is true, we can be sure of one thing: Their plans just changed.

I don't know, looking at the "Kinect" that's coming out, to me it seems like it's well better than what the Wii has to offer, so they may be out.
But with the Kinect, can you imagen plating some game, maybe you would have to have some gloves on as well, but playihg with COD on a platform, and so on so it knows all the moves you are doing. (I know this is not what kinect is doing right now but I feel it's the next step)
I think PS need to have a long hard think about what to do next just my thoughts

Yeah, Hopefully microsoft makes Kinect really good 
It's probably going to be better than the wii, so, it has its ups and downs.
