Bloomberg Rumor: Xbox 720 unveiling at E3 2013, launching in the same year

Microsoft Corp. (MSFT) will release the next version of its Xbox console in 2013 at the earliest, as the company squeezes at least one more year of sales out of its current model, said two people with knowledge of the matter.

pretty obvious after m$ said no new system this year. next xbox and ps4 will launch within a few months(or even weeks) of each other

AgentWD404836d ago

I do expect something of an announcement at E3 though, even a tech demo. Microsoft are doing quite well and with Halo 4 releasing this year the last thing they want is a new console stealing halos thunder. As for the PS4 I do see Sony previewing it at this years E3

BDSE4836d ago

How plain can MS be? They's categorically denied anything will be announced about the next XBOX at E3.

No tech demo, no hints, no hardware, no games- nothing.

halocursed4836d ago

This seems like a plausible case because Halo 4 is releasing this year so there's no way Microsoft is going to announce a new console and dampen the hype which will surround Halo 4 during its release.

tigertron4836d ago

If not E3 2012 then most definately 2013. Especially a release.

tehpees34836d ago

I'm surprised by it. I thought MS would at least not let Nintendo parade around the show. When N show GTA V people will be opening champagne bottles at their hotels all night.

gamingdroid4836d ago (Edited 4836d ago )

They are probably waiting to see what Nintendo is up to, before MS releases their next console. One year head start is an advantage, but it is far from detrimental.

In many ways, releasing later gives you plenty of advantages IF you take advantage of them.

Rolling the Dice: Do Modern RPGs Miss the Point of Team-Based Play?

It seems it was long time ago. A bunch of friends spending hours on end playing RPG games, sitting around the table with the box of cold pizza. Excited about the story, listening to the Game Master, they were completely engaged in the worlds only visible to them and their imaginations.

The GM is the programmer, and in MMOs and co-ops, you can play with others. If you want to ONLY use your imagination for the visuals, read a book.

1) Hope they put it on disc this time.
2) Hope this is a positive for Neptune coming over as well.

Demons Souls5484d ago

If so, that's being developed & published by Idea Factory. Compile Heart has nothing to do with it (Thank God for that).

Godmars2905484d ago (Edited 5483d ago )

Thought Compile Heart was one of the companies lending characters.

Was also speaking in general as in regards to a US of Neptune. If these guys are offing a second game, NIS or Atlus, both of whom offer quirkier titles, will put that one out.

@kagon01:
My issue isn't - wholly - with the DL-only option, but the price. The first game should be $30. Maybe $40, and by that I mean $39.99. The only reason its $45 is the 360 disc version which has extras. Nevermind that by all rights its a PS2 game. Something that proabbly could have been done if the devs had the GOW2 engine or tools.

ClownBelt5484d ago

I approve of this god damn message.

Could have gotten my 60 bucks if they just put it on a disc.

Another exclusive damnn the ps3 keeps on rollin wit games awesome ;)

Jack-Pyro5484d ago

Is this a half decent SRPG, porn aside, cause if it is, i might just decide to go and buy it for the 360.

Anon73495483d ago

There's no porn just some sexual innuendos but that's it.

Also it is a great game by itself, maybe not graphically but everything else is top tier.

RedDevils5483d ago

so it had some kind of "top tier" porn story jk

ThanatosDMC5483d ago

Yup, it's a decent game. I just hate that a move has to go first before any attack options.
