I was wondering if Microsoft released a new XBOX in the year 2010, would you guys buy it right away?
I feel like the current 360 is still new and has atleast tell 2015, i wouldnt buy it off the bat, now i would buy a handheld though if you could play your arcade games on it.
Xbox 360
Platform »
The Xbox 360 is the second game console produced by Microsoft Corporation and is the successor to the original Xbox.
The next generation?
"Do you really think your 360 is going to be current in 2015? That would be like saying the N64 is current today."I watched this one interview with several game and console developers talking about how they really doubt there will be a real "next gen" system unless it involved hologram or virtual reality technology. So i wouldnt be too surprised if there wasn't a significant improvement in consoles till 2012.
2011/2012 the earliest.
Microsoft are a very aggressive company and it's feasible that they'd release another console early to push themselves ahead of the competition. If they did that though I doubt they'd abandon the 360 as quickly as they did the original XBOX, the 360 is too popular.
They won't put out the next Xbox console until at least 2011.
But if they did release it in 2010, I would buy it on launch day. I'm just a sucker like that.
I was just thinking about the next Xbox yesterday. I am currently getting ready to save up for the NEXT Xbox. Xbox 720? No matter what it's called I'm going to prepare to drop $600 on the next Xbox. I doubt the system will be that much but I'm saving extra for the games.
Anyways, to answer your question, YES. I would purchase the next Xbox on day one.
Personally, I thing we will not see anything publicly until a majority of developers begin running into problems regarding the lack of space on those HDDVD's. When most games start hitting RAGE quality of texture detail, and id tech 5/crysis technical prowess, is when we will begin to see something. And that might take a few years at least. 2010 at the earliest.
But even that would surprise me. I see the 360 sitting around for quite a while.
Some reason, I was praying this would pertain to Star Trek and the lackluster new trailer. I been duped.
