Zuko 'Zarhamee Posted May 12, 2012 Report Share Posted May 12, 2012 I read somewhere that Microsoft said that they won't release any new consoles for at least two years. From the time that it was said, two years would be around Holiday 2013. Then again, I also read that Microsoft wants the 360 to be a 10 year console which means that there wouldn't be a new Xbox until 2015.

Undead Posted May 13, 2012 Report Share Posted May 13, 2012 My personal opinion on a new Xbox console is that it shouldn't happen, not for another 6 years or so anyways, because the Xbox 360 is amazing as is. There are just so many good games for it. The only way I would buy the new console, if it would happen to come out in 2 years, is if it could play Xbox 360 games and all the Xbox 360 games were still able to go online. Other than that I would stick with the 360. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Microsoft will probably come out with a new console in the next few years, though. From what I've heard about the Wii U, it could easily compete with the Xbox 360. It's been said to be as powerful as a 360 and it's a handheld. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they're online is like the Xbox or PlayStation because the Wii just sucked. The online was terrible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VivaLebowski Posted May 15, 2012 Report Share Posted May 15, 2012 Halo 4 is pushing the xbox to the limits of the current generation, and the disparity between the console and PC versions (in terms of team size, map size, and graphics) of games like Battlefield 3 shows that the time is finnally coming for a new generation. Looking forward to Halo 5 and a new Xbox, in the same year! You know what...what do you bet Microsoft is throwing all their big guns into Halo 4 beacuse they know its success is crucial for the 720 to succeed. The next console cycle is going to face a real huge crunch considering the market is evolving and in some ways shrinking (just a bit). Whoever wins tho, is dominant, and the edge might very well come down to who has the exclusive IP's. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinreaper Posted May 16, 2012 Report Share Posted May 16, 2012 I can confirm thru msdn resources that the next xbox is slated to land in the hands of 3rd party developers between december 2013 and january 2014. Also confirming native windows 8 API components that are cross platform. As Viva said, Halo 4 is crucial to the success of the next system because revenue and community support are what will be driving people to become loyal Xbox gamers. What title do you suppose will be a launch title.....Halo 5. That is all but certain. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomakazi Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Not bothering to read the posts in the thread but they're definitely going to have a new next gen console soon. The 360s are not nearly sturdy enough to last..well forever. I've only had mine for like 4 or 5 years and its beat to ****. Doesn't hold up like the N64 does..

SEKC TTBLSSH Posted May 17, 2012 Report Share Posted May 17, 2012 Xbox 720 may happen but at the same time it would either start off with a whole new series of games or they would have to link all the games with the 720. But in the end there is the game halo 4 which will be on the 360 which is going to be a huge hit but what happens if the 720 comes out with no games I think that they are just going to make the 720 just really high tech have a new game series and at the same time link the other games such as halo reach and 4 + cod for all of thoughs fan boys. But that's my over view of the 720 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that's my over view of the 720 Well if there is a Halo 5 its almost certainly going to be for the 720 what H3 was for the 360 (ah, the good times!). But Halo is an old series, no longer quite so fresh, so 343 needs to succeed and succeed big. And Microsoft is pushing them to do that, beacuse the fate of th 720 and the world is wrapped up in it as well...well IDK about the world but the next gen of Xbox is going hand in hand with Halo.

Veer Zamamai Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 To be honest, I'm not too bothered whether it is released or not. I don't want Xbox to be like Playstation, who release a lot of consoles. Xbox have had only two, not including the subordinate sections. I love the Xbox and I feel we should keep it the way it is, it's got a nice shape and everything we have worked for on this Xbox will have gone, and I really don't want that to happen. That's just my opinion anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZOMBIE SLA3R 13 Posted May 18, 2012 Report Share Posted May 18, 2012 It will happen but the ps4 and next gen of gaming consoles will not be for a while the ps4 will not be considered the "Gamers" gaming console not like ps3 anyway but the xbox 720 will happen and it will again beat Sony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trevor Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 Of course they're will be a new Xbox, maybe not a 720, but a new Xbox, or a new console that Microsoft is making. They aren't just going to keep the Xbox 360 as they're main console forever. And the PS3 blows, it's not fun and doesn't give you the Live Experience that Xbox does, but then again, it's my opinion. ;D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinyl Scratch Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 Just like everyone else is saying, probably will happen, but not anytime soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minuette Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 There maybe will be 2 more years of the xbox since GTA 5 is coming out in 2013, plus the xbox has a better chip (graphics chip) than the PS3, the source? ask any game developer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
36-2071 Pragmatic Avarice Posted May 31, 2012 Report Share Posted May 31, 2012 The Next Xbox, either being a tease this E3, or not, seems like a late 2013 release as some had stated. Why at that quarter? Because we already have so many things on the plate for next year. I'm hoping so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we already have so many things on the plate for next year. I'm hoping so. I think the Xbox 360 will last a couple more years before a tease of the new Xbox will come, and I like the Xbox right now, I see no need to change it when they just upgraded it two years ago.

PrometheanSigma Posted June 1, 2012 Report Share Posted June 1, 2012 I'm pretty sure it's official and out in '13. Still think that's a retarded name. How about something a little bit more original? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garvak Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 I am definitely looking forward to it. I best start designating an adequate amount of money for a new console, a couple new games, and accessories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrometheanSigma Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 BTW, I mean LATE '13. Put it out in November so billions are getting 720's for Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bighungry2x Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 The next gen Xbox is obviously going to happen. Whether it is called 720 or not doesnt really matter, but we will definitely be seeing a new Xbox console in the near future. I can't wait to see its advantages.
