Remember Microsoft's crown jewel of E3 2008, the New Xbox Experience? The word on the street is that the new update could hit as soon as September 25th, at 7pm Eastern Standard Time. According to the juicy rumors, Microsoft has allegedly bought up a five hour chunk of G4TV's primetime block in order to promote the relaunch of the dashboard.

During this five hour extravaganza, Microsoft is supposedly to be making several large announcements. As with any rumor, we will remain skeptical until seeing further evidence, but here is the complete list of announcements:

• You can run Sirus Radio through your 360 for a monthly fee with no extra hardware
• A new music service will be coming in the shape of either artist's music (Radiohead etc) for a price or some gaming music (Halo, Gears of War) for free
• A new channel, Lib, will be added to the Xbox Experience but it's not known what Lib is
• A preview of Grand Theft Auto IV: Episode One, Portal: Still Alive, a free Halo 3 map pack and a new Mass Effect expansion all to be released on Marketplace soon after the re-launch
• Assassins Creed 2, Mass Effect 2, a new shooter franchise from Rare, a new Conker and 2 new Halo games will be unveiled the same night (We assume this is Peter Jackson's Halo Project and Bungie's new Halo)
• All the games mentioned though have been given codenames (Apricot, Burden, Conker, Dramatis, Error, Fender, Gargoyle, Hiroshima, Ignorance, Jeremiah, Kyoto, London)
• 6 new Xbox Originals would be on the service exclusive to Gold Members on Xbox Live with Halo being free but it will only stand for memebers who have had their accounts for so long etc etc -- VGChartz.com

If all of this turns out to be true, I will be ecstatic. That said, I am trying not to get too excited, because Lord knows Microsoft has let me down so many times before. Now if you will excuse me, I have to cancel my plans for the night of the 25th.
