Interesting.
It's about time, Jesus.
Same day as Random Access Memories release.
Everything seems swapped from last gen. Would be good to see Microsoft focus on some quality titles, but i doubt it.
Kinect ahoy!
Damn it, you beat me to it!
If they're just going to just call it "xbox", they might as well just make it look like the original xbox while they're at it
I wonder what we're gonna get.
Calling it, Mandatory always on Kinects for every system
see how flat the xbox logo is? it's a metaphor that obviously confirms all those online-only rumors.
and with that green line on the bottom, that's the belt they'll tie you to a chair with when insulting everyone's rights to play games offline
ugh i'm getting a ps4

I hope they just call it that regardless of what it looks like. 720 sounds stupid, Durango is a codename and they don't generally use those so "Xbox" would probably be the next bet. The original is definitely old enough to avoid confusion between the consoles, unlike the recent case with iPad naming, so fucking confusing.
Looking at the invite I guess a Windows 8-ish Metro UI is guaranteed

They could call it "Xbox: Turd Catapult" for all I care, I'd rather they not name it after something that already exists.

Uhm, I can't tell if you're being serious or not. You get "always online console" from a flat logo and a green line at the bottom?
How in the fuck?

It's okay since you won't be using it with a mouse. I'd rather be worried about hardware, not ui

and on that day Daft Punk sold out as they preformed their album at the microsoft conference.
The font in that invite gets on my freakin' tits and I don't even know why.
[QUOTE=Factemius;40404647]Same day as Random Access Memories release.[/QUOTE]
Well the next Xbox will have RAM or Random Access Memory installed in it.

The colors bother me.

if they sold anything half as big as the original Xbox it would probably sink a few continents and send the planet whirling out of orbit from the weight discrepancy
I'm really excited. I'm really hoping Microsoft bombs their conference, I need a good laugh.
Seriously though, just considering Sony's approach with the PS4, it'd take a hell of a good show for Microsoft to convince me to get the next Xbox, there again Microsoft isn't trying to sell it to you or me anymore.
My 360 just died about an hour ago after 5 years. I can only assume this was not a mere coincidence but instead Microsoft has launched an EMP specifically targeted at old 360s so that we're forced to buy this new console.
[sp]Or in my case forced to be sad for a bit and go play games on my PC.[/sp]
I have a feeling that this will end up being the last Xbox Microsoft will ever make.
Either that or it's launch will flop pretty hard.
May 21st is my birthday.
Yeah whatever.
Anyhow I'm actually hoping it's ALWAYS-ON so that we can see the concept is shit and move on.

You say, yet neither of them have been released yet nor has the new Xbox even been revealed yet.
Dude what the fuck
PS4 is better than next generation Xbox...
[QUOTE=Gustafa;40406645]PS4 is better than next generation Xbox...[/QUOTE]
The next Xbox hasn't even been revealed yet. Calm your titties.
[QUOTE=Gustafa;40406645]PS4 is better than next generation Xbox...[/QUOTE]
I'm all for hatin on the xbox, but at least be logical about it. We don't even know what hardware it's going to have, everything has been rumors so far.
[QUOTE=Gustafa;40406645]PS4 is better than next generation Xbox...[/QUOTE]
Good to know you can tell that definitivley without any confirmed information on the next xbox.
I thought the PS4 presentation was absolutely horrible with the focus on social media and cloud bullshit. If the new xbox really is "more entertainment focused," sacrifices hardware inorder to do it, comes with manditory kinnect, costs a lot, doesn't play used games, and has an always online connection, THEN yes you can say it is way worse than the PS4.
Problem is all of that is just rumor and speculation. And again the Xbox won't be worse than the PS4 because the PS4 is so good but because the Xbox is so bad. Sony did not impress me [I]at all[/I], I doubt Microsoft will either.
I was taking the piss guys, jeez.
