Rumor: Next Xbox and PS4 To Debut At E3 2012

By Dillon Skiffington (Editor in Chief) on 07 January 2012 in News with 6 Comments

Consumer website MCV reports that the next generation of consoles will be debuting at this year’s Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3). “Microsoft has long been rumoured to detail its next-gen plans at E3 2012, and MCV’s third-party publishing sources claim the firm had signalled to partners this will happen.”

The report continues, “The 360 is one of the longest-serving games consoles in history. But the real surprise is an  early move from Sony. Execs at the PlayStation firm have made it clear to third-parties that they will not be left behind this time.”

If you havent kept up on the rumors we first reported that developers would have the next Xbox in their hands by the end of 2011. We then reported an issue of Official Xbox Magazine that said that we shouldn’t expect the next Xbox at E3 2012.

    The #1 question for me: What kind of backwards compatability are we talking about?

    Since MS is owning all the technology in Xbox 360, unlike the original Xbox, I am pretty sure that the new console will be 100% compatible with the existing titles.

    Also I believe that we won’t see something similar like the PS3 which had first the Emotion Engine chip built-in and then removed for cost cutting…
