Next-gen Xbox finally confirmed by Microsoft

After years of build up, a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:Microsoft representative finally spilled the beans on𓃲 Microsoft's upcoming new gaming console. Speaking toon a recent podcast, Microsoft general manager Brian Hall♐"the new Xbox" when discussing Microsoft Outlook.

“We’ve had Hotmail and operated Hotmail for about 16🌜 years, we obviously have Exchange, and Outlook, that people use at work," he said. "We just decided it was time to do something new and bring the best from each of those and put them together and release it right in time for the new wave of products that we could have coming out with Windows 8, with the new version of Office with the new Windows phone and the new Xbox.”

No further details were discussed, however we felt compelled to write a news post about this simply because we're so exasperated by all the secrecy. Frankly, we're assuming most people who read this wiꦫll be more surprised that Microsoft hadn't announced it♛ yet. The industry at-large has long since moved past the days of wondering whether Microsoft would release a follow-up to the Xbox 360.

Just a few months ago, a 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:huge document released which purportedly leaked Microsoft's plans for a next generation Xbox console and Kinect camera, which Microsoft reportedly tried to get some we✃bsites to t𒈔ake down.

Analysts have said that we can expect the lid to be pulled off the Xbox One sometime in 2012. We're just not quite sure when that will be. 𓄧Most analysts we've heard from now agree that 🦂the console itself will launch in 2013.
