One of the only problems I see with them launching in 2012 is with GTAV. With Max Payne coming out this spring I don't see GTA coming out then, so I'm seeing it as a Holiday 2012 or Spring 2013 launch. Now with the graphics we saw in the trailer I would say they are nice but definitely not "720" nice, so that leads me to believe its a PS3/360 (slash maybe Wii U) game. I don't see Microsoft launching the NextBox right as last gen gets a major selling franchise that would make people want to stick with their 360.

What the fuck does a 3rd party multiplatform game have to do with the launch of a new console????!! 

1) IT WILL BE BACKWARDS COMPATIBLE AS THIS TIME THERE IS LIKELY NO TECHNOLOGY CONFLICTS.

2) GTA5 at this point in the gen is not a system seller. BTW, remember when Mario Kart and Wii outsold GTA4 combined PS360, lol.

I can sort of see the arguement some have with Halo4. Considering its a very large 1st party title... however, even Nintendo launched a new console with a GC Zelda game.... and it was very successful on both sides of the street.... and Zelda for Nintendo is easily just as big as Halo is for MS.
