Forums - Microsoft - Xbox 720 (Named OneBox) 2013 release with Illumi room, Fortaleza 2014, plans revealed 100% accurate so far

Where was this info from? That leaked roadmap thing?

So Fortaleza Glasses in 2014 and by 2015 MS roles out their game streaming/xbox live cloud service so that you can play any xbox game and access any of your content on pretty much any hardware without upgrading if you don't want to.

Also in 2013 it sounds like Xbox Live is getting a tiered plan shakeup where it says "Mix and match services to get what you need". I imagine there will be cheaper tiers for simply online gaming or something and more expensive tiers that include all the extra TV content/media and cloud/streaming services.

Exciting stuff!!!

The Ilumiroom is really amazing, imagine a Silent Hill game with this tech!

Did not understand the Fortaleza, the glasses are virtual reality or 3d glasses?



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

Well, some are getting touchy in here.

Also, am I being Captain Obvious by stating the obvious that onebox simply refers to the ideal/plan that you're only going to need an Xbox platform going forward for "all your media needs"...

Yeah I feel Captain Obvious now.






       

Really looking forward to seeing 720 or Onebox or whatever they'll call it. It looks like an amazing (and perhaps costly) entertainment device.



 

I'm not sure what to think...
@That comment that says only trolls come in to MS threads: They need someone to fill these threads with posts! The MS Community on here is a sad, sad place. I feel bad for YoJohn and his crew.

I know but i needed to rename the title because this thread wasnt getting any support due to how many xbox 720 threads there already is. I wanted this to be differnitated


You know, all this stuff looks like sci-fi to me, but if it really happens gaming will change forever, it is a little like a holodeck experience, a little. 

I keep thinking how it could do wonders to the horror genre. It would really be the Ferrari of video games if it works like it seems to work. Exciting times ahead I guess.

It really will.  I'm extremely excited to hear what they have in storee for this generation because some of this like you said really will change gaming for ever if it proves to be successful which I believe it will be.




       

Pretty sure M$ will not be dropping the name Xbox. The Brand is mainstream now and has solid marketshare. To change it would be stupid



Long Live SHIO!

You know what? It is almost SCARY how revolutionary this is, I was expecting to read 2016: TOTAL WORLD DOMINATION on the document. Really impressive and bold stuff, Microsoft is not joking around. Can´t wait to see what them and Sony will bring.

From the rumors, it looks like the Nextbox has the potential to sell really well. Even if its less powerful than the PS4, it will come with the Kinect 2 and have new features like illumiroom which have never been seen before and this could really attract a large number of casual gamer's because they will see it as a good value console + it has a very cool illumiroom feature.

Also, I think the Nextbox and the PS4 will be extremely similar graphics wise, cause they still want their games to look great and not worse than PS4 games.
