Whether you cannot wait for the next generation of consoles, or dread the day of their announcement, Microsoft could be well underway in developing a futuristic system which will set the bar for gamers. As of recent, confidential word of certain Microsoft employees have been leaked throughout the world. What has been suggested is that a future Xbox device, perhaps called the Xbox 720, is in the works. Though no confirmed announcement regarding the launch and/ or console, many now believe it is only a matter of time.

Fellow Microsoft employee, Jeff Faulkner, has been working under the title of “Xbox Next Gen Creative Director”. Given this title back in January, Faulkner holds the responsibility of “guiding the vision for Xbox’s User Experience Design across Social Media, User Experience, Entertainment, Gesture and Voice Input, Information Design and Brand and Visual design.” Though this job description does not insinuate a new console, it supports the idea of content which will be featured in one. Nevertheless, Jonathan Harris, another employee at the Microsoft corporation has been “esigning the next generation of entertainment” for the past fourteen months. In analysis, this rather important job would be for the development of any new item Microsoft were to put on the market. All in all, these two specific jobs seem to be in preparation for an upcoming console.

Additionally, Joe Lagevin, an Xbox Hardware intern at Microsoft, has been designing and simulating high speed data buses which prevent electromagnetic interference in next generation devices. Moreover, a man also by the name of Patrick Corrigan, previously employed from Feburary to June 2011, held the responsibility of “Providing groundwork and integration for branding elements for next-gen Xbox on all forms of media. Ranging from print to UI across future releases of Xbox Platform.” A major job that hints at a ground breaking product (possibility a new console) which could come into the market. A person employed for this duty must be incorporating a relatively large project for Microsoft.

No one can for sure predict whether all of this adds up to a new device from Microsoft. Only time can tell whether or not a console will be unveiled within the matter of time. These small hints however illustrate the possibility of a new upcoming Xbox system.[/SIZE]

=D

This article may be new. But the topic is old. Sony and Microsoft have been working on the next-gen console for a while now to compete with PCs. Since they know console gaming is dying.

How about some larger FONT bro

Holy shit, this console will look crazy man.

I would rather have them add new stuff to the consoles we already have, instead of making us buy newer ones to keep up.

Games that are in development are only limited by the console they are designated for. Why do you think PC games are so much better than Xbox/PS3 games, visually speaking of course. Games being released today could be 10 times better than they actually are, if only we had consoles that were up to date. It's about time for a new console, because the hardware in the current consoles is limiting games. Games being released aren't at their full potential, because of the consoles we have today.

I just can't wait for a list of hardware specs... I wanna know what its going to be capable of...

Sounds Cool. But lets talk price. I imagine it's gonna be more than 400USD depending on its features. It it were to have a built in HD capture card, it would probably be like 500USD. I think that the games should be able to capture footage as MW3 will, not the console. Kinect will probably be built in as he said. 3D and 1080p Full HD. Considering all of that (assuming that will all be in there) your looking at about 650USD - 800USD. That's a lot of money for a console. What do you guys think about the price range? Higher, lower, or am I spot on?

proof? mr. i know everything
