Not actual picture

There have been many rumours about the upcoming nextgen consoles so far. If all are true, the inside of the new Xbox, presumably some kind of insane multicore CPU and crazy powerful graphics chipset could be teased early as part of Microsoft's final showing at the Consumer Electronics Show this year. This could mean it may be properly revealed at E3 next year in June. So if all these rumours are accurate, expect it to be in stores by the 2013 holiday season!

But that is not what I have come here to talk about. Rumours have uprising that Microsoft are trying to go more mobile. There are strong signs suggesting that, like with Nintendo's Wii U, a tablet component figures heavily into the new design. That new Windows 8 Metro interface (now also seen on the Xbox Dashboard) just begs to be touched. some have even been suggesting that the core of the new platform will be akin to a tablet PC that wirelessly connects to a base station, which in turn plugs into your TV. If this is the case, a premium Xbox Next setup could include a base station, a tablet, a conventional controller of some kind, and the recently discussed high-def evolution of the Kinect.

These are all rumoured and most of the time, these don't turn out true, but,

If the Xbox 720 were to be tablet based, what would you think about? Would you buy it? (answer those questions below)

Thanks for reading,

tablet = gay. :n:

that would be interesting but i dont think i would buy it. thats just me though. its a pretty good idea though with the metro interface and all

hopefully its not tablet based.. i want it to be similar to 360 but upgraded!

i carnt imagine it being a tablet with a base station plus high end graphics as the price would be over £1000, its just gonna probally be the same cheap plastic crap with cheap componets cause thats how microsoft work , and im not a sony fanboy as have both systems, but the build quality on all 360s are so poor and the parts they use are cheap, i hope i am wrong but what i do wonder is if they stick to dvd disk or make a new disk as sonys blu ray will still be useful for ps4 due to how much u can store on the disk and alot less data compression unlike microsoft

It'd be a nice addition but there main priority needs to be a console I just can't see console gaming being turned over to a tablet

Proper console. Not a iPad or something!:FU:

Yeah, hopefully it's a console not a tablet.
