The existence of an in-development next-gen Xbox has been given further weight this morning, after various Microsoft employees were spotted mentioning 'next-gen' work in their LinkedIn CVs.

"Microsoft employee Jeff Faulkner is currently working as "Xbox Next Gen Creative Director" according to his LinkedIn profile, having occupied the role since January 2011.

Meanwhile "senior creative director for Xbox" Jonathan Harris says he's spent the last 14 months "designing the next generation of entertainment", while Xbox hardware intern Joe Langevin says he's working on "high speed data buses to prevent electromagnetic interference in next-gen devices."

Obviously not surprising, but it gives us a bit of information.

It makes me sad Microsoft that you are so lame and inept you had to cut out almost all exclusive acquisition, 1st party...etc just to concentrate on your new system....Fine release a new system but what you've done is basically tenamount to what you did with the original xbox dropped it completely once your new system was in the wings.

As long as Kinect sells, how can you expect a company like MS to NOT jump and ride it until its death? They do it all the time.

95% of 360 users are huge fans of core games like Gears, Forza, TES, Mass Effect an so on.

Is this the reason for a lack of exclusives? If so, it's a poor reason.

When did 360 have anything to offer besides Halo and Gears?

After it lost Mass Effect 2, it became a shooter box and nothing else.

*coughs* we'll just ignore the fact that by every outlet availble metacritic, gamerankings, gamespot alone the 360 still has a higher variety of games in its line up.

Sigh. Aside from it's exclusives which aren't many, it's getting pretty much the same games as the PS3 (multiplats) In fact the PS3 has more shooter exclusives than the 360.

No while kinect sold very well it's software won't match the sales of heavy hitters like gears. MS will also be trying to get th cor gamers onboard as they are roughly 90% of the xbox consumer

WilliamRLBaker

why would you not want last gen dev dropped when the new system is here?

all you have to do is look at the first 2.5 years of the ps3s library to see what a terrible idea it is to let devs choose to make old games and more money as opposed to dragging them kicking and screaming into next gen development.

J-dev would hardly touch the ps3 in the early days because why would you when all the money was in making ps2 games?

how many jrpgs did the ps3 have for the first 3 years? any?

killing off last gen development on the original xbox was one of the smartest things ms did the entire gen.

if ms drops the 360 like a bad habit and focuses on nextbox games i would be extremely happy.

This is what I thought would happen. The original XBOX was a beast of a console.. but if you bought it in 2004 you didn't have many new games to play. Meanwhile the ps2 is still creating games (although real 1st party support died in 07')

Im not defending Microsoft here as im a gamer and I always want the biggest choice of games so would welcome more exclusives from them but I can seea reason why they maynot have released many exclusive or new IP this year. A new IP would have to go up against Gears 3, AC3, UC3, MW3, BF3, KZ3, Res 3,Skyrim, Rage, Halo Anniv`and as you can see a lot of those titles are on the 3rd installement so should have a large fanbase already so it would be hard for a new IP to gain marketshare among those titles. A multiplat like MW3 could be on for more sales on 360 than every PS3 exclusive released this year combined its that big a game.

No surprise here. Not calling anyone out but I never understand why people get surprised or excited by this. The day after the Xbox 720 comes out they will be brainstorming about the next console. Its a constant process, always looking to the horizon while Kinect destroys the present.

Whatever MS come up with i hope they fix the RROD problem,i loved my 360 but afta 4 RRODs and having it fixed constantly i got fed up and sold it and got myself a ps3 and in all honestly ive never looked back.

Yeh there a number of games i loved to death but what good is a huge library if you cant use the machine they play on in case it dies all the time?? If MS can fix this so it doesnt happen next gen i may well buy one of their machines again.

The 360 was the best console to own in 2006-2008. Right now, I couldnt own just a 360. So for the 360 only owners out there who want a new console, I understand. I just hope they don't make it tough for developers to make money. I think devs are just getting comfortable with the prices of making games now. There's still too many great games to be played and made this gen... I mean, Carmack JUST released a game. Can we at least wait for the next DOOM or Half-life Episode 3 :lol:.

Microsoft need some new IPs next gen as Gears is no longer a sure fire exclusive (yes I know the first one is on PC), and with the trilogy ending there is no real reason to stick any future gears games on the 720, it is probably more likely to go multiplat on 720, PC, WiiU and PS4.

So that leaves Halo and Forza... They need Rare and Lionhead to create a bunch of games and need to acquire some more devs or new IP's to try and get some new big IP's off the ground.

Microsoft played everything right this gen the year head start and easy to develop for hardware meant they got a bunch of games, either before the PS3 launched or shared some games with PC that never came the PS3. They might not have that luxury next gen, and Sony and Nintendo will both be out to try and please the core gamers and casual gamers.

if ms drops the 360 like a bad habit and focuses on nextbox games i would be extremely happy.

It had nothing to do with that,there were many changes from last gen to this gen,and from the one of the PS1 to the PS2 one. Now Japanese RPG are not the big thing,now fighting games are not the big thing they once were as well,now shooter are the big thing an Japanese don't do those much,sony did the same thing with the PS1 and PS2,and the PS2 had more games on the making in 1999 that the DC got in all its life time. Sony did not kill the PS1 as soon as the PS2 arrived,and the PS2 in 2001 got,GT3,MGS2,GTA3,FFX,Devil May cry and many more games all exclusives,if your point was even close to be true the PS2 would not have get this level of quality release 1 year after the PS2 was launch,because developer were still making huge money on the PS1. They kill the xbox because it was bleeding them money,and the xbox 360 would also bleed then money as well on launch,so having 2 wounds open at the same time wasn't a good business,so they did not care for people who bough that console on 2004 and 2005 and just kill it. The xbox 360 is already 6 years old and still alive,how funny isn't when they kill the original xbox in 4 years,but the xbox 360 is not letting them any losses is making tons of profits,and the difference is quite easy to see,MS doesn't even want to talk about new hardware screw 360 fans,lets milk the 360 hardware until the end of time,now if they only would have think that way with the original xbox.

Unfortunatly it wont happen :(

95% of 360 users are huge fans of core games like Gears, Forza, TES, Mass Effect an so on.

95% of 360 users? Then shouldn't those core games like Gears, Forza, and so on sell 50+ million, instead of 4-8 million? Kinect Adventures sold more than any game on 360 except CoD and Halo 3. And is pretty close to Halo 3, while being less than a year old. It'll probably pass it in lifetime sales and be the 360's top selling exclusive.

lol.. That is exactly what i was thinking not even COD has a 95% of the xbox 360 user base lock,and the game is by far the best selling game on xbox 360,hell i am not even sure than from 100 % xbox 360 user base 95% still has a working 360. Some people are not very good with percentages,and counting Mass Effect a multiplaform game,which we all know will be multi next gen as well.

And that's a terrible argument too. I wish the game was on PS3, personally, because I have a 2 year old who would love it (she just saw the pic as I was typing this and climbed in my lap saying "Elmo! Cookie Monster!"). Having a good game aimed at someone other than you is not a bad thing. Sesame Street CAN co-exist with Gears. Just like Eyepet can co-exist with God of War. You guys need to LEAVE COOKIE MONSTER ALONE!!!

not really understanding your maths there ian. He means that a high percentage of xbox gamers are big fans of Halo / COD / TES / Mass Effect. Doesn't mean the 95% of the users are fans of EVERY ONE of those franchises.

Fair enough. But the overlap between games like Gears and Halo is pretty big. Even games like TES. (Example: You). I'm just saying, if "95% of 360 users are huge fans of core games like Gears, Forza, TES, Mass Effect an so on" then surely even one of those games would break 20% attach? I guess Halo 3 did... but so did Kinect Adventures. So saying 95% of 360 users are fans of casual kinect party/mini games is just as valid, right?

clearly you are one of them as you completely missed his point.Also the other week you said that "XBL Gold users are the vast minority on XBL" any idea what that means?:roll: How come you still haven't acknowledged the fact that i completely demolished your accusation against me yesterday:?sts106mat
Really you can join the sales from those games and still will not match the number of units sold on 360,not to say that many who like Halo like forza,but not all who like Halo like Forza or want to buy it,the same with Gears as well. Like i say COD is the biggest game and doesn't have that %. XBL has 35 million from which almost half is gold member,and the other half silvers,this was confirmed last year but is something that is been know for quite some time,on the original xbox you knew the real numbers because only gold account were count because it was all it was gold,there was no silver,on 360 MS count silver and gold together to make the number seem bigger,but silver are basically half or more of those 35 millions. You don't demolish anything dude,just stop bringing other threads arguments into this one,you don't own a PS3 your opinion on anything 360 vs PS3 is 1 million times more biased than mine,at least i don't cheer for any crap sony pull on me.
