Xbox 720 Set For Announcement At E3 2011

JoeIsMad4792d ago

I agree. Even if this presence by Microsoft happens to be the detailed tech demo as the article suggests, Microsoft's presence in saying, "Look what we have coming" will help save them from falling to the slightly improved graphics of the next gen Nintendo.

Slightly improved? Have you actually seen the specs for the new nintendo console?

JoeIsMad4791d ago

They are identical except for the video card from what I can tell. Tripple core processor, half gig of RAM, no HDD, sure, but the same processing wise.

I guess when you know you're about to get passed up you just start a whole new race. lol I hope they do it right and not jump the gun this time.

According to Eurogamer they have a source who says an E3 reveal is unlikely. Whenever the news comes it will be interesting to see what specs the new console will have. I wonder if they'll go down the blu ray route.

Thank you, people are so gullible these days. "Sony is bypassing the PS4, and going straight to the PS5" and then some jackass will write an article about it. Idiots O.o

ROQFrost4791d ago

I agree. Lets see them wow us this year.

Speed-Racer4791d ago

Eurogamer discredits this source lol

That's true, but naturally as Eurogamer likely doesn't have the same person in the know, they would go by what EA's corporate level says. I think that this is something that is "hard to tell" either way, but this hint toward it's existence should suggest they at least bring it up at E3, as mentioned.

I wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft decide to beat Sony to the punch.

pocketaces114791d ago

They did last time even know they new about the RROD so it will be interesting to see what BS they try to pull this time to beat Sony or try and steal thunder away from Nintendo.

Oh and before the fanboys start throwing the fanboy remarks around they either didn't test or new and didn't care either way it was wrong IMO

Corepred44791d ago

You wouldn't be surprised because they did it this gen?

ROQFrost4791d ago

again lol

KingLizzle4791d ago

Not exactly beating them to the punch. Sony built a console with a 10 year life cycle. Even now games aren't leveraging the full power of the PS3. Microsoft shot themselves in the foot by backing the wrong format instead of blu ray. Whenever a new XBox comes it will probably be part of the PS3 gen as opposed to being part of a new gen.

Just how Nintendo is gonna get another E3 win this year. and i guess the comment i replied this too is now dead -_-

GillHarrison4791d ago (Edited 4791d ago )

I know, Microsoft and Sony did awesome keeping the hardcore gaming audience buying their consoles. They should have went for the casual audience sooner and led their consoles to an early death. What a shame. Sony should also follow the way Nintendo launched their 3DS, without an App Store, Web Browser, or a large line-up of AAA games.

meganick4791d ago

I wonder if this was influenced by Nintendo. Either way, I'm anxious to see what they reveal.

GillHarrison4791d ago

This would be market suicide. The momentum behind the Xbox 360 is tremendous right now. Why stop a product that is continuing to sell countless numbers of units. I can guarantee we will not see an new Xbox at E3.

Soldierone4791d ago

Its doubtful by all means. When you announce a new console you not only announce the console but you show it off. You show games, features, and most off all you show developers supporting it. If Ea is just now getting dev units in unfinished form how are they going to build an entire game (or even a demo unit) in less than a month that takes any potential from it?

No casing, no games, no features, no E3 announcement at all.

I dont see ms showing anything of the new console this E3 because they have only just released Kinect and the new 360. MS have said they have a big line up of core games this year and why would they ask them to carry on making AAA games like gears 3 forza 4 plus the other Kinect games that we know about if a new console was out soon.

I see MS showing off there next console at E3 12 and it being out November 12 or Feb 13.

Three_Sisters4790d ago (Edited 4790d ago )

I don't get it...they did release Kinect last year, that would expand the horizon of audience for Xbox 360 and shown great potential to lengthen the life of 360 but their also going to drive the attention of customers to a new console immediately?

for me, what they should do is milk a lot of cash from customers with kinect for now...
