MS Exec: Expect "surprises" (except a price cut)

Microsoft's European executives continue to talk better smack than their US counterparts, and hence earn our fanboy love. Richard Teversham, marketing manager for Xbox Europe, promised MS will reveal "a number of surprises" intended spoil Sony and Nintendo's party this fall. Teversham specifically denied plans for a 360 price cut, re-directing the question at Sony's gilded console. He went on to call the Wii a "Gamecube with a DVD drive" and questioned Nintendo's ability to meet demand. En garde!

So what surprises could Microsoft have up their sleeve?
