VG Leaks....
We are going to be two console as part of the redesigned “Xbox Line” of products. A repackaged and reoriented Xbox 360 unit and the new “Durango” gaming console, both designed to compete with more than Sony in gaming, but against Apple as well.
When the Durango (game machine) launches, it will not support backwards compatibility for 360 games out of the box. Instead, this functionality will come from the other unit that will be networked with the Durango to provide this (not unlike the DVD add-on for the original Xbox).
The purpose of the smaller Xbox unit is to compete with Apple TV, but also provides XBLA and 360 game support which will give it an edge over Apple TV. The rumors of “always online required” comes from the smaller Xbox unit which may not have a disc drive and like Apple TV it would require a network connection and internet to provide any real functionality. It may be possible they will design both consoles to be stackable.
Durango itself will also always be online like any other device (correct with rumors), but it will not be a requirement to play local content and it will not prevent playing used games. Putting in an Xbox 360 disc into Durango will prompt the user to attach the supporting device that is sold separately. By separating the two devices and their functions it will ensure price competitiveness for both pieces of hardware. Microsoft’s delay in announcing these products from April goes more inline with not having a physical set of devices to show (among specification updates), which should be ready by May or June when this information is officially released.
The price goal of the smaller Xbox is $149 or lower and it is likely to not have a disc drive and would require a network connection. Durango will be priced competitively according to PS4′s price.
Don't ask me?? I found this on N4G Forums....
PS1 Day 4
Next-gen consoles day none. Most of the previous IPs that were worth getting hyped for are now ruined and even a few newer IPs have been ran into the ground too. Final Fantasy died with FF13, Metal Gear died with Rising, Resident Evil died with RE4 (technically; I know it was last gen but this gen made it much worse with RE6 by showing they're out of touch with the series & fans), Mega Man is dead, Tomb Raider died with the newest one even though it has been going downhill before it, the last good Halo was Halo 2 (Halo 3 was ok but it went downhill after that), Gears of War was a good new IP but the only good one was the first one (same goes for Infamous; changing the character's appearance and voice for Cole without no backstory behind it ruined all immersion I had for the franchise), and there are many other games that became trash this gen.
I'll just stick to PC gaming. There really isn't anything that could make me care for console games at this point.
i am actually more impressed by the games they announced so far, and E3 still didn't start!
