The XBOX 720 will probably use Blu-ray and it might not let you play used games!

by Elias - on Jan 25th 2012 - No Comments

According to Kotaku sources it seems like the future XBOX might come with Blu-ray support. This would make XBOX catch up with the PlayStation 3, which uses that disc technology already. In the details it was also revealed that the next console will probably have a technology that will not let you play used games. Let’s hope that Microsoft think twice about this idea, because it will hurt them in the end if they do this. It was also revealed that this new XBOX 720 or whatever their going to call it; is going to have a new and smaller controller.

Be sure to check with us as more details come.

Rumor: Xbox 720, PS4 to be revealed at E3

by Paul Yan - on Jan 7th 2012 - 1 Comment

Whoa, how about this for a rumor. According to MCV’s “third-party publishing sources,” Microsoft’s next Xbox and Sony’s next PlayStation home consoles will be unveiled at this year’s E3.

As MCV points out, this could be the biggest E3 ever if The Big Three — Nintendo, Microsoft and Sony — decide to show off their next major gaming consoles at the event. That is, however, a big if.

It’s been speculated that the Xbox 720 and PS4 (as some are calling them) won’t be revealed/released at least until 2013. But perhaps Sony and Microsoft don’t want Nintendo hogging all the E3 spotlight this June?
