In a response to a question inquiring about the rumor suggesting the announcement of the next Xbox at E3 this year, Cedrick said:

"We're in an industry that talks a lot, that likes to tell stories. I am not convinced things will happen this year. Xbox 360Œs cycle is not at all finished. The proof is that we donft see the logic in cutting the price this year. E3 is still premature. Whatfs certain is that therefll be nothing new in 2012."

Delmas said that Microsoft won't be making any hasty moves in a bid of counter Nintendo as they prepare to launch Wii U.
