Xbox 720, Durango announcement delayed a month
According to a Tweet by Paul Thurrott, an individual who has sources within Microsoft and was one of the first to hint at an April reveal, it appears that the Xbox 720 – or Durango – will not be announced in April as previously expected.
Thurrott shares that Microsoft’s planned reveal of their next-gen home console has been delayed by a month.
His full Tweet reads:
That April Xbox announce? Pushed back a month.
With a delay in place, this points to Microsoft announcing the Xbox 720 just prior to E3 2013 if the company decides to announce it in May.
Currently Microsoft’s Major Nelson has a countdown running on his website that ends at the start of E3; a possible indicator of when Durango will be announced and shown to the public.
Hopefully the wait for Microsoft to announce their next-generation console is not much longer. If it is to take place before E3 2013 at a Xbox 720 exclusive event, invitations should start arriving to media during the latter half of April.

J-E-T-S Whats the point in not announcing it? It just hypes of people for your product anyway... gets more preorders and such.
Not really give them time to improve and people will still buy it regardless of when they release information

SuhposeStarify The better do something here soon. It seems like attention has been brought to Sony, since Xbox has not released anything interesting.
Very true, all eyes have been on Sony, now it is time for Xbox to start to do something.
I have a feeling the new Xbox will be better than the PS4.

-Fluttershy-Goblin-zG7s Is there no confirmed date or price for the console yet?
No not currently... Which sucks because nobody knows if they have to save up $500 or not..
I don't think it will be 500$ probably around the same price range as the Kinect xbox when it first came out anywhere from 200-300$ i think.
"experts" said it would be around the $500 dollar mark. If you rmemebr when the 360 came out it was $400 for the elite. And with the price of their games coming in at around $70 supposedly I wouldn't be surprised to see a higher console price.

Zyme I don't think it will be called 720 because that would mean two rings instead of one.
Yeah that's true.
