Microsoft Already Working on Game For Next Xbox?

​

In the latest issue of EGM, rumor hound Q-man got a really interesting tidbit from a mole at Microsoft: a secret first party sequel is already being worked on for the next Xbox console. According to the magazine, the game was originally planned for the Xbox 360, but was recently moved over to the next Xbox console.


It's not uncommon for platform holders to begin working on new consoles and launch games years before they actually come out, but this could point to the next Xbox console not being that far off.


So what sequel could it be? Hmmm... a new Halo? The next Forza? How about the next Perfect Dark? Oh, or maybe Fable 2? Kidding.


For more rumors, not to mention an issue packed with previews of some of 2008's biggest games, check out the February issue of EGM, hitting newsstands shortly.

Well if it's coming out in 2012 and it takes four years to make a game then they would have to start now so there would be games available upon release.

The new Perfect Dark will be out on the 360 im sure as it was spoken about quite some time ago.

Interesting as to what it might be though and what technology will be used.

A new halo? :noexpression: Halo was a trilogy, the main story is done.

Who knows what it is, but a next Xbox generation console anytime soon seems unlikely. The Xbox 360 is still in it's prime, and has only been out for alittle over 2 years now. These people seem to be getting alittle too ahead of themselves.

Yes it is. I've heard some speculation on MMORPGs.

Maybe it's Lionhead's secret project :O

Maybe it's a Fable MMORPG :O :O

Ugh that box is ugly and I would rather hang on to my 360 for a while longer.
