Should be launching fall 2013.

Developers will get development model later this year.

Hopefully the name will not be Xbox 720.

There are some who walk until their legs fail them and they fall to the ground. I find that respectable.
Then there are those who drag themselves further. I find that admirable.

I read in Popular Science that they are hoping to do a lot more in the direction of Kinect shenanigans...which is unfortunate

In the words of the late, great Colonel Sanders: "I'm too drunk to taste this chicken."

Hopefully they won't only release every new game to only be compatable with the 720, the only difference seems to be the graphics capacity.

^Agreed, kinect is fairly gak.

Kinect will suck for a while yet I think. At least until a developer actually spends time making it work for them instead of against them. Overall though I'm not holding high hopes for any real innovation regarding the next xbox. Who knows, I could be very wrong, and hopefully I am in this case.

Not quite. If that 6670 has all the features than it's pc counterpart it would possibly mean great things for widescreen setups.

If you could slam multible xboxes together ala eyefinity developers would start making better hud elements, improved fov and dare I dream it a proper multi display gaming and this fisheye stuff we have right now.

Every time I hear "in my opinion" or "just my opinion" makes me want to strangle a puppy. People use their opinions as a shield that other poeple can't critisize and that is bs.

If you can't defend or won't defend your opinion then that "opinion" is bs. Stop trying to tip-toe and defend what you believe in.

A new xbox?!?! that means i can have even more powerful red rings of death!!!

On topic. If its going to focus on more kinect crap then its a definite no buy for me, il stick with my ps3 and gamecube (gone threw 3 xbox360s so i have absolutely no want/ no support for them or any newer versions whatsoever)

WAAAHG!!! until further notice

Well hopefully the 360x2 will have some backwards compatibility. I also hope Sony brings out the PS4 around the same time so we don't have the whole 2nd and 3rd gen games competing with 1st gen games all over again.

Well if the rumours are true and the new xbox will have Ati 6670 card which is kinda hard to fathom since the card will be about 3 years old when the xbox comes out, but then against it's a rumour.

Here a article from the guardian http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/gamesblog/2012/jan/31/xbox-720-rumours

Maybe they'll actually have a decent launch lineup this time

The 360 had Call of Duty 2 and... Well that was pretty much it.
