Hey guys, here's an article posted as of November 1, 2012, compiling all of the rumors on the next-gen Xbox console, for all intents and purposes, being called the Xbox 720 at this point. There's a lot of speculation as to what the 720 is going to consist of. It's sounding like there's a good chance that it will come with a Blu-Ray drive and might possibly have some 3D capabilities. Kinect seems like a give at this point, with Microsoft continuing to push new Kinect releases. Having a console with a built in Kinect type device would seem like the way to go.
We already know that developers have the next-gen kits in their hands, as we've reported before in this Gearbox thread, but we want to know the important stuff already! How much is the Xbox 720 going to cost (rumor has it that it will cost $299 USD)? When is it coming out (supposedly around the holidays 2013)?
The one rumor that I hope isn't true is that the console may keep users from playing used games, i.e. no trading games in or buying them used (sorry Gamestop)! I have a super hard time believing that this will be the case, but you never know...So what do you guys think?
