Rumors..about a new XB are coming and going since at least 2 years..i see them from time to time on various gameing sites i visit. Today i saw another one at Kotaku though which seemed realistic to me and i thought it would also be interesting what you people here think about it.

Here the article:

Industrial Designer Dates New Xbox For 2015
Click here to find out more!

Brian Ashcraft — Industrial Designer Dates New Xbox For 2015 The online portfolio of industrial designer Ben Peterson lists all sorts of projects he's worked on or is working. One of those is apparently the next Xbox.

In the past, Peterson's work, like this concept "magnify" or electric kettle, made waves online. But an entry posted just yesterday in his online portfolio is bound to make the biggest waves.

His portfolio reads:

    Microsoft Xbox: Confidential / Collaboration with Microsoft's IEB Design group investigating future user experiences and hardware for 2015. *Work samples only permissible in persons.* (March 2011)

Website ZDNet believes that the March 2011 dating means that the project has just got underway. By 2015, the Xbox 360 would be ten years old, making it an ideal time for a new consoles. However, it is unconfirmed whether Ben Peterson is involved or not in the next Xbox.

Microsoft, and all electronics companies, are always working on new machines. What form they take if and when they make it to the market is another issue altogether.

Kotaku is following up with Microsoft and will update this story should the company comment.

What do you think when a new xb will be released?

In my own opinion it should be 2015 or later. Microsoft should first build up some new IP`s for their System which would be successful trademarks for their next console as well. This year i saw nothing spectacular and exclusive yet for the XB..the console gets Gears of War 3..but what beside that title? Am i just misonformed or are there really no exclusive platformer, racing games, fighting games, RPG`s coming for the XB this year  or are they just not announced yet?

But um...yeah. A new xb console would be lovely.
The baby boomers 360s are getting old and are needing more maintenance and support to live independantly work.

On the topic of console exclusives; there hasn't been a single console exclusive release for 360 or PS3 that has piqued my interests in many years. Most important games release for everyone.

Game exclusivity isn't the driving force that it was in the PS1 era. It certainly doesn't sell consoles anymore.

Kinect was released last year, so I don't see they releasing a new XBOX until 2013, to make the most use of the Kinect plataform.
Funny, though, as I expect the Wii successor around that time too.

Of course it still does. 360 and PS3 have a lot of the same games, but generally what makes someone go one way or another is what they can get on one but not the other.

The kinect is just a playstation eyetoy with its stats amped up and some software. If it was the goddamn first model that they were going with that was actually able to capture worth a damn, it would be interesting, as it is, its just eye toy with added software. Even if i think its useless, the playstation move is the only one that combiens both the eyetoy technology with the wii technology, thus granting it more tools for developers to work, the kinect main interest is for making new indie stuff with cheap material that a computer can recognize.

I actually noticed that it has more accidents than the wii has had in the past, and the videos on youtube show a more quantity of accident videos than those of the wii unless they are fake that is... anyways it looks like we will never get a decent game or emulator that truly make us feel like we are inside of a game unless the matrix's head plugged console comes out in retails anytime sooner with real bleeding experience lol... that would probably make less of a problem and also a less pathetic gameplay right?... :-\ probably in a 1000 years from now?... oh well...

Im talking about companies that are created in an attempt to make a quick buck.

For example lets talk about Nintendo who created Wii Sports and Wii Play. Both were very innovative and demonstrated what the Wii was capable of. The titles were successful.

Now you have third party developers who try and emulate that success. Carnival Games, Birthday Party Bash, and multiple table tennis clones are a few examples of developers taking whats already made (with no reinnovations, just a new skin) and selling it to the public.

With the Xbox Kinect, we have Kinect Adventures, a fun game that is pretty innovative. Watch, and you'll see other developers make reskins of Kinect Adventures.

Suprised by the number of exclusives for PS3 but soon realized I didn't like any of them.
Of course I didn't buy a 360 because I needed Forza Motorsports and Gears of War. (bought it because at the time it was the only console nix Wii that was within the price range of an average human)

The only exclusives list that I really looked at was the PC exclusives, which has always kind of had it's own target market.

If I didn't have a 360 and hadn't spent money on it, I would probably buy a PS3.
I wouldn't advise buying both unless you're just that wealthy and want to PS3 while you 360.

I don't feel like I'm missing out on anything important and I hope PS3 users don't (because they're not)
My reason for getting a PS3 would be almost solely on it being newer and less likely to catch fire.

To be fair, I probably give kinects more crap than it deserves.

I voted never, when they release a 360 and 100% free xbox live, maybe then. As of right now, its fine.

On a side note, I hate the kinect. If I wanted to look like an idiot while playing a game I would play the wii. I dont like the direction gaming is going in general so if they did release another console I probably wouldnt bother getting it anyway.

I fortunately don't like any of those franchises save MGS. And I've played pretty much all of the MGS I need.

If say Skyrim, Portal2, Dragon Age, Mass Effect, Arkham, etc. were console exclusive, then I feel as though it'd be more of a dilemna.

pokemon is irrelevant in consoles, what's your point
my point is that I was just generalizing on 3 of nintendo's popular games, and the fact that nintendo depends of those kind of game or characters all the time and that they should provide more variety on their consoles just like they did during the 90's... sorry if I missed lead the topic of the threat I was just surprised by looking at that chart that's all... anyways let's get back on topic enough of nintendo...

Sorry, but one of the main reasons why people buy a Wii and other Nintendo consoles is so that they could play first party Nintendo games (Mario, Zelda, Metroid, etc). If the only games on the Wii were Nintendo, I wouldn't have any problems.

I have nothing against third party developers as long as they try and bring something new and innovative to their titles.
