Road to E3 2011: The Microsoft Report Card

Microsoft has denied all rumors that a new Xbox will be announced at E3. That means no NextBox, no Durango, no Xbox 720.

Ryan James, Group PR Manager for Microsoft told GameInformer, "While we appreciate all the interest in our long-range plans for the future, we can confirm that there will be no talk of new Xbox hardware at E3 or anytime soon.

"For us, 2012 is all about Xbox 360—and it’s the best year ever for Xbox 360. The console is coming off its biggest year ever—a year in which Xbox outsold all other consoles worldwide."

The PS4 seems even less likely than the Xbox 720. Bad news for gamers who want a change but great news for Nintendo, who will definitely be showing off its new console, the Wii-U!

    What are cheat?
    Also known as cheat codes. They are tips, hints, tricks, secrets, tactics, and hidden content that
    enable us to have an advantage over the programming of a certain game by allowing us to control
    how the game operates. To 'cheat' our way out as it where in the name of fun enabling us to get
    past a certain level or overcome a presented challenges that we have a hard time figuring out how
    to overcome.
    How do Xbox 360 cheats work?
    They are a set of instructions that you input in to your game and the code you feed in forces the
    game to respond to you in a certain way. For example in a given game you might be looking for a
    hidden key that will enable you to proceed further or for your game character to achieve certain
    desired abilities or powers. When you have the right cheat code you feed it in to the game and all
    over sudden you are able to locate the hidden key and get past obstacles or possess certain
    powers.
    Why is it important to have them?
    Certain games become quite challenging to say the list since as you proceed further in to the
    game the battles get more fierce and sometimes you get stuck wondering what to do next. But
    with cheat codes for Xbox 360 games you can get around the obstacle and win the battle then
    proceed further to have fun with other facets of the game. We all don't want to be stuck on one
    level or give up on a game only because we can't figure something out. Cheats help us fire things
    up by helping us unlock the potential of new games and give a new flavor to games we have
    played before
    Where do I get Xbox 360 cheats?
    The best place to get them online is everything4360 an established site which has an extensive
    collection of Xbox 360 cheats. Non-members get free limited access but as a member you get

    I can't imagine the new Xbox or PS coming out until late 2013 or 2014. E3 2013 would work fine for that time frame.

    well, microsoft pays a lot of publishers extra money to get stuff first! money rules! but maybe ftsKaleem meant better marketing! i'm a gamer so i know whats coming. mainstream gamers don't. so better marketing i would agree! but he said 360 was impressive...? besides third party games that are on both systems it's a persons choice, an if microsoft pays to get it first... make ya money! then to market the same thing, gears, halo, fable, thats not impressive! kinect...? not impressive! i was happy when alan wake came out! at least it was something different! last year it was gears, so you knew the next year was halo! know need for marketing there!

    @ ParkinLotPlaya

    I think you miss interpreted what ftsKaleem said.

    First off, ftsKaleem stated that he supports PS3, so he's no fanboy.

    Secondly, I believe his comment:

    "The PS3 just needs better game developers to push their hardware"

    Has more to do with the fact that multiplatform developers typically get more out of the 360 when looking at performance analysis.

    Do we even need a new console?
    The Xbox 360 is already impressive.
    The PS3 just needs better game developers to push their hardware
    The Wii and Wii U, already revolutionize unique gaming experience and is fun for the family.
    The PC ... well...

    Heck I still run my old nintendo for fun... and its still fun!

    One has to give credit where credit is due.

    MS said they would be the top console in 2011 and they were. They say 2012 will be even better.

    Fact is, MS has ppl that are paid to know how the numbers will play out.

    MS is just letting ppl know that the 360 will complete its 8th year of production before a replacement is warranted.

    An almost unheard of run.

    that's not a smart move, with the PS Vita just being released and the Wii U most likely making a presentation at E3, Microsoft better pull out something amazing at this years E3, which i think is highly doubtful, they will probably showcase some more Kinect games, which in my opinion is the dumbest way to play a game on their console, i'd rather have a controller in my hands instead of waving them around all crazy like. To the topic of Vita games tho, i'm more than confident Sony will showcase some outstanding games that will be ported to it simply for the fact that its a portable PS3

    "The PS4 seems even less likely than the Xbox 720. Good news for gamers who believe a new console is unnecessary"

    Fixed

    Lastly:

    "The console is coming off its biggest year ever a year in which Xbox outsold all other consoles worldwide."

    Secondly

    Sony did not fund and develop BluRay by itself.

    "S T I" which stands for Sony, Toshiba and IBM were the original players

    Currently 19 members on the Blu-Ray Association

    Apple Inc.
    Dell Inc.
    Hewlett-Packard
    Hitachi, Ltd.
    Intel Corporation
    LG Electronics
    Mitsubishi Electric
    Panasonic Corporation
    Pioneer Corporation
    Royal Philips Electronics
    Samsung Electronics
    Sharp Corporation
    Sony Corporation
    Sun Microsystems
    TDK Corporation
    Technicolor SA
    20th Century Fox
    Walt Disney Motion Pictures Group
    Warner Bros. Entertainment

    All these companies want more devices using Blu-Ray

    BTW what is one codec used in Blu-Ray? "VC-1", developed by MS.

    Use your head for a minute...What OS comes with every Sony Vaio? Right Windows.

    First off, when it comes to rushing, both Sony and Nintendo are pushing their new consoles out in fewer years.

    PS1 came out North America in late 1995 and 5 years later came the PS2

    PS2 came out in late 2000 and 6 years later came the PS3

    The game Cube came out in late 2001 and 5 years later came the Wii

    The Wii came out in2006 and 6 years later they will release the WiiU

    The 360 came out in late 2005 and 7 years later in 2012 MS isn't even showing a new console.

    That's called staying power.

    Why would there be a Blu-ray player in any microsoft product, The blu-ray player was funded and developed by sony, why would sony give microsoft permission to use its technology. And why did microsoft have to come into the console market. Before xbox, Sony and nintendo took there times with there consoles, they didnt push anythink on the consumers, now microsoft has come into the picture and now consoles r so rushed. Microsoft can go do wat they want, but i dont think sony will play along with this game. Sony willl release there consoles when they r ready, even if it means being the last console out. Microsoft will destroy themselves with this whole rush game they r playing, use to be a 10 year lifecycle now its 6 years, microsoft will fail when people realise that with each new xbox that comes out from now on wont have a real difference in technology but still cost them $500. Sounds a bit like other methods used by microsoft in the past.

    Honestly ,Adam Sessler said"we don't need a next Gen Console",and he's right and I laugh at Micro Soft calling the X-Box 720 Darango ,which means (du�ran�go/d(y)o o raNGg /
    A state in northern central Mexico; pop. 1,352,160.
    Its capital city; pop. 414,000. LOL.ans I ask 'really Microsoft ,did you even researched what Darango actually means"?.And X-B0x 720 wants to put a Blue Ray player which has been done by Sony Play Station 3 and I ask sarcastically"Micro Soft,can you be any more unoriginal?" >.>.

    I honestly didn't really think they would announce it this year, only thing that sucks about this is we get another year of "unconfirmed rumors" from an "unknown source"
