yeah you heard me right,there's a article floating around that ms is already in design steps for new xbox,the xbox 720...but i ask what's the point? i mean any specs they add or technolgy they think of now would be changed as time goes by.It's really stupid to be designing a next generation console now already...i'd wait untilendish 2008 before that...
Quote: Asked whether preliminary work had begun on the next, next-gen, Lewis nodded in agreement with the view that "as soon as you develop something, it's old", and said: "Of course we're thinking about that... we're constantly thinking about the next thing, we have to. It's my point about complacency - you can't sit back on your laurels in this business - the consumer won't let you, the developers certainly won't let us. So that's happening right now."
"You'll see more over time - certainly we're not talking about the next version yet, so give us a chance to catch a breath, will you?"
However, Lewis stressed that he thinks the lifecycle of 360 will be longer than that of Xbox 1 - which would mean 360 will be hot right into 2010 - and added that 360's design is inherently customisable: "We want to give people the chance to continue to expand - either through accessories or storage, or the Live which continually evolves and broadens - 360 can evolve in its own right, and that's an important step that we took beyond [Xbox 1]."
