Now with the release date of the new Xbox 720 is speculated to be around 2012 to 2013 let’s see what would be the possible specs and configuration of the new Xbox.
Microsoft will keep with its latest technology at new price .Mind you Xbox 360 was around $200 less than PS3 which helped it immensely in gaining the lead. Having a lower price tag always helps even if it means to sacrifice some use features which will make it costlier.
Xbox 720 will also be very friendly for the game developers. Xbox 360 presently has visual basic .net platform which is easy a widely popular. So it has made the console a preferred choice for the game developer’s .The new Xbox will continue the trend of keeping it simple.
It is speculated Intel has struck a deal with the Microsoft for providing the processors and graphics card .Hold your breath for what could come out of the deal. The CPU would definitely br triple core and could possibly be quad core. A 16 Mb DRAM would go on with this arrangement. A main memory of 2 to4 GB which can provide high speed would suffice.
It is taken for granted that everyone would have an internet connection by that time .So Ethernet connectivity will surely be there .Even wi-fi would be standard so it will also be accommodated .And we have USB for wired connections while wireless USB could deal with wireless communication .
Microsoft didn’t include HD-DVD or blu ray in Xbox 360 since it was not sure which of them would win the race. Now since blu ray has emerged the winner so the new Xbox would surely have Blu ray.
Storage capacity would range from 250 GB to 750GB .there is also a possibility of a wireless motion sensor game controller.
