Six More Years With the Xbox 360?
Asked if Xbox is still growing at this "late stage in a console lifecycle", Lewis said:
"We see it as about halfway through. But yes you are right, Xbox is defying the normal curve you might expect. There's no doubt that Kinect put a huge shot of adrenaline into the business.
"What we are now seeing is massive swathes of families and younger audiences flocking to it. As you saw at the press conference, we are now in line with what we projected at E3 2010."
Lewis went on to explain that Microsoft deliberately focused on families and kids first with Kinect, and now it's moving on to provide "complimentary" experiences for core gamers.
"What you won't see is us contriving that," he said. "What you will see is us using Kinect to enhance the experience and not detract from it. I don't think our core gamers will tolerate anything else from us."

I think they need to come out with a console sooner. I am a true Xbox 360 fan but unless a gaming company takes more than a year to make a really enhanced game that has all the little details, then I will probably buy a Sony console.

I hope they have a new console out by 2012. I'm getting board and I have only owned a 360 since the good old COD4 days...

hope so... the graphics cant improve really because it can already support 1080p, and they just released the kinect. Another thing is that if you go to gamestops website you can preorder halo 4 for the xbox 360 (i dont know if that really means anything but its just intresting...)

will everyone stop guessing how long the 360 will last. yesterday microsoft was going to announce a new console next year and now its 6 more years. just stop until you get some real info.

when battle field 3 is released we will see a rise in pc gaming because people will realize how inferior the xbox is to the pc. hopefully we get a new console in the next 24 months max.
