E3 2010: Xbox 360 Slim set for tonight

The same Italian website that outed the Kinetic rebrand for Microsoft’s Natal hours before Microsoft officially revealed the moniker at its E3 press conference has published the first pictures of the Xbox 360 redesign set for tonight’s E3 ress conference.

A now-removed ad running at console-tribe.com showed a picture of the purported redesigned Xbox 360 – pictured – and touts that the device, which comes with built in wi-fi and a 250GB hard drive.

Most importantly, it says the new look console is ‘compatible with Kinect’, adding to its credibility.

And the ad itself, meanwhile, appears to have been taken down, lending credence to its authenticity.

MCV will be reporting live from Microsoft’s press conference tonight at 18:00pm UK time.
