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.

This Ilumiroom thing is really exciting even for the hardcore audience, not just the casual COD FPS players, but think about RPG players, Horror and Racing players, the imersion, IF USED RIGHT, could be second to none.



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

I don't like the name "One Box" it should have just been called "Xbox Durango" plain and simple

Yeah, MS is trying really hard to make the console appeal to both casual and hard core gamers, and I'm very curious to see how they do it. I mean, to me, the Kinect 2 won't be a big selling point cause many have already seen the kinect,  and unless the Kinect 2 offers something very different to the original kinect I'm not sure if it will be great for the Nextbox.

the simple fact MS has a plan that is 3 years out is why they are beating sony..

And how do you know that Sony isn't doing the same thing? 10 year PS3 life cycle, I expect the same with the PS4.

Looks good. Hope there are some games to match. I've never doubted Microsoft when it comes to entertainment pieces and multimedia, just games.

No it isn't.

Good Lord, that thing has been shown a few years ago. The BBC even has a f*cking patent on it. The British Boradcasting Corporation, NOT MS.

LOL at Hardware 2013 "The Only Box you'll need for premium living room entertainment."

What what, a couple launch games? Even then, 360's library was just a repeat of a handful of franchises. Microsoft does not cater to the all types of gamers, especially not the JRPG, or even RPG fans. How long has it been since we saw a JRPG exclusive on the 360?



What is with all the hate? Don't read GamrReview Articles. Contact me to ADD games to the Database

Might want to read it again.  2013 is talking about next gen not X360

This is old. For all we know their plans have changed completely.

Onebox? XBox sounds better.
