Next Xbox 720 to launch in 2011-2012 according to Microsoft





While Sony already admitted to be thinking about the
PlayStation 4 and
Nintendo are no doubt developing a Wii 2… In an interview with the head
of Microsoft’s Interactive Entertainment Business division, Peter
Moore, EGM magazine asked him when their next video game console would
come out, and also asked if they’d drop support for the Xbox 360 like
they did with the original Xbox. He
said that they were going to support it “as long as it sold.”Possibly because they saw the Xbox sell well into 2007 despite not
producing the console after October 2005.
He said the production team from the
Xbox 360 is working on the next Xbox 720, and their looking into what
kind of CPUs will be available on the market in 2011-2012.
That would put the Xbox 360 at a lifespan of 6 or 7 years, a far cry from the
Xbox’s 4 years. After spending $1.26 billion in losses launching the Xbox 360,
they’ll want to get the most out of the system by lengthening its
lifespan. As the longer you get into the cycle, the more profit you can
make due to stopping being a loss leader, analysts always remark.



On June 13th, 2008, Robbie Bach — the President of
Entertainment & Devices Division at Microsoft — mentioned the next Xbox by
saying: “Our view is we will be selling Xbox 360 for a long time. We are always working on new
technologies. We have people working on those. People ask me how many people I
have working on the next generation. On the one hand, it’s everybody.
On the other, it’s nobody. People are continuously working on new
technology. We started thinking about the next generation before we
shipped the Xbox 360. It doesn’t start with a date. It starts way
upstream with silicon development. From that comes a series of data
points. You start making early technology choices. It’s an evolving thing.
Stuff doesn’t become concrete until you get inside a window of when you
have to ship, more than 18 months or so out.”

thanks alan for the xbox info
