June... hummmm makes sense but not easy to happen.



Around the Network

June would give it a really big advantage over the PS4, but it seems too soon.

June Launch would be AWESOME for MS. It would literally shock everyone because it's expected Holidays.


I' am smelling RROD all over again.



Its not coming in June. That's too soon for proper levels of build-up.

If it were coming that soon, we'd already of had a reveal, seen reports of production orders from Chinese vendors, and so on.

It will be revealed in Mar/Apr for a Oct/Nov release.



They mean announce the console i guess

About this acquire,mostly they bought it for patent since MS have their own service to do some share thing(Azure)

i don't know if consoles really have to release in the holidays or if they really have to be announced minimum half an year before release or if it would also work like with a smartphone announcement but i think it wouldn't get enough games at release since all those multiplat games release in holidays.

ok, since xbox will be probably more than only a gaming machine it could be interesting for those who care about the rumoured cable tv stuff and starting with the holiday season it would be also interesting for those who want more than only very few games available for a console.

would be really interesting if major nelson's countdown is teasing the nextbox release and not the e3 conference but i really dobt it and thin nextbox will release end of october or something like that.



free games?
