Xbox 720 cracked with new 'surprises' - console|
| (hx) 11:55 AM CET - Nov,18 2012 | 
Microsoft seems to have covered up the initial, massive Xbox
720 leak that we saw earlier this year pretty well. You should remember
the now infamous Fortaleza document leak,
which apparently revealed the main specifications of the next Xbox, notably
the addition of Augmented Reality features, Xbox Glasses, Blu-Ray disc
support and Kinect 2.0. Microsoft has since removed all
traces of that document off the internet, but Xbox World has written a feature
on the new console in their penultimate issue, again revealing again
some of the above specifications of the next console. According to XBW,
the next-gen Xbox - which it speculates is likely to be called
simply Xbox - will introduce Kinect 2.0, use Blu-ray
discs and feature directional audio, a TV output AND input, 'innovative
controller' and - at a later stage of the console's life - Augmented
reality glasses glasses. Current codename 'Durango' dev kits
boast a CPU with "four hardware cores, each divided into four logical
cores" and an impressive 8GB of RAM, XBW reports. Overall, the only new
thing revealed in this massive blowout seems to be a mock up of the
console, which is an image that's been making the rounds on the web
these past few days.

Then it's released and the wool has been pulled over everyone's eyes as usual. Best one for that was Peter molyneaux and black & white, or Crysis.
Don't even go there with hardware.
Hype to sell as, per everything in the industry. Early adopters love it but never, ever learn. |

| Baconnaise | (03:16 AM CET - Nov,19 2012 ) | | Does MS use a special connector for regular sata drives to prevent use of your own? The only thing that interested me about xbox when it first came out was the ability to mod it and make it a media center. I don't know if that's what the new xbox looks like but it's generic. Better than the others though. I dig how the wii is a small brick and had so many different colors eventually. I'm hoping eventually I can get something like the wii or wiiu size to run xmbc and just push media from my nas. WDTV streaming box is tiny but limiting (no browser so no streams unless youtube live). |

I used to have my PS3 as my media server running Linux until the assholes removed OtherOS. Since then it's been HTPC and that's how it stays. |

Same here, with Intel processor an Nvidia onboard video.
MS will want to offer people some services and charge for it - which might go on for a short while but die in the end. |
