Microsoft job posting suggests new Xbox within 18 months
Over the next eighteen months Microsoft will release new versions of all of our most significant products including Windows (Client, Server, Phone and Azure), Office and Xbox, along with completely new offerings like Microsoft Surface. This wave of product launches will define the course of the company for years to come and thus provides an unprecedented opportunity for us to refresh and evolve our strategic brands.
Of course this is no definite confirmation that a new Xbox will be available in 2013, as Microsoft earlier this week had to clarify a statement made in relation to the next Xbox being in development - even though it's still rather obvious Microsoft is secretly developing a next-generation console to compete with the Wii U, the next PlayStation and advancements in PC gaming.
Documents that were leaked earlier this year in relation to the "Xbox 720" mention a next-generation release for 2013, plus a successor to the Kinect (named Kinect V2 in the documents) is also expected around the same time. A price point for the console is speculated around $299, and there have been several, often conflicting rumors surrounding the hardware.

Jigee With all of the games that have come out this year and last, it would be a horrible decision on their part to release this console so soon.it hasnt been that soon either way games are always gonna come out so they have to do it sometime

moneyalpaca Microsoft doesn't need to make a completely new system or platform. If they are going to do something then just improve what they already have. Make everything better, faster/ less laggy, or maybe even consolidate with ps3 and have everyone play together even if they are on different systems.it might be hard to do but they have enough resources/ money to figure something out. I think it would be fun to play against ps3 players (i play both systems so im not saying one side is better than the other) because of the rivalry. Everyone would be talking crap and it would be ps3 clan vs xbox clan.yeah seriosuly just improve they will make money either way
