Fuck VG247 title then

sure but that's the article i used. and everyone who will read the op will know that this isn't 100% fact. people who only read the title don't have to post in a thread i opened if there will be some of them.

you think them too clever then
whatever,you can check the neogaf ver title

Two things. One, this is just another rumour like every other rumour we've seen in the last year. Don't take rumours seriously because the majority of them is not true. Number two, even if this is true at least Microsoft is trying to fix it and hopefully they avoid something similar to the Red Ring.

i don't have to check other sites titles, i know that this title isn't ideal but that's the first site i saw it and because of that i used this site and quoted them, i would always do it like that, i don't search for the title i like most of any site if i quote someone, i use my first source

This fits that other GameStop rumour that one next gen console is launching in 2014. Pretty bad for MS if true.


If anything, I would've expected Sony to be late to the party again. This would be very weird if true.



I wasn't going to buy it on day 1 anyway, once burned, twice shy.
Unless there is a great launch game, I'm weak :/

Well, Pachter also said MS will launch in 2014, and we all know Pachter is always right.



No troll is too much for me to handle. I rehabilitate trolls, I train people. I am the Troll Whisperer.

There is some good news in the original source, about the GPU power:

"So, what is the XBox Next? SemiAccurate has been saying for a while that all signs were pointing toward a PowerPC, specifically an IBM Power-EN variant. The dark horse was an x86 CPU, but it was a long shot. It looks like the long shot came through, moles are now openly talking about AMD x86 CPU cores and more surprisingly, a newer than expected GPU. How new? HD7000 series, or at least a variant of the GCN cores, heavily tweaked by Microsoft for their specific needs."

Although even an imbecil should have known the GPU wouldn't be based on the 6000 series. Obviously it was going to be based on the Radeon 7000-series (probably with features from the future 8-series).

My bet is that the GPU in Nextbox will be equivalent in power to a Radeon 7850, around the same flops (around 1.8-2 Tflops I think) and amount of transistors, but less power hungry and obviously less focused on compute tasks.

This all in all would mean the Nextbox will be 8 times faster than a X360 and 3 times faster than a Wii U.

Pachter said this after semi accurate's rumor



good delay next gen as long as possible, I at least don't want it too soon
