Subject: New Bungie game on new Xbox?

Si-!

So there are some new rumors that the next xbox will be revealed at E3 2013 and then released later that year. Article

Considering Bungie traditionally follows a 3 year development cycle I am anticipating their new game to come out sometime during the fall/winter of 2013. I think if the xbox rumors are true, there is no reason Bungie wouldn't develop for the new console unless they are trying to keep the game on a level playing field with the PS3. However Sony could be releasing a new console also so who knows.

Thoughts?

Dear god I HOPE it doesn't take that long. Also, I highly doubt he new xbox will premiere 2013. The kinect easily added 1 or 2 years to it's life span.

If we don't have next gen by fall 2013 I'm gonna be pissed. It's already been 6 years. I think it would probably be wise to release on next gen consoles.

^This.
From what I understand, Microsoft would like 10 year console life spans.

Plenty of rumors and leaks from developers suggest that the new Xbox will be in 2013, though.

Also take into consideration that not everyone owns a kinect or enjoys the gimmick. Just because it tacks on a few years to the current generation doesn't mean the new system isn't coming soon; after all, it took a couple of years for the PS1 to die when then PS2 came out, same for the PS2 when the PS3 launched, same for the Xbonx when the 360 launched.

Still, I don't think it'll be that long before Bungie launches their new game anyway; iirc, they've been working on Destiny since 04 and Halo 2. That may just be conceptual designs and story ideas but I'd say they're also a lot further along with the actual programming than most think. I expect the new game to come out shortly before the end of the current console generation and maybe get ported to the next console as a launch title.

It will most likely be on xbox 360 and PS3.

That's a great way to go in my opinion. I rather see amazing leaps in console gaming vs. the ever changing world of PC gaming. I just hope the Next Gen Microsoft console is as solid as the Original Xbox is.
As for Bungie's next Title, take as long as you need. I just can't wait to start hearing the details!

Just because it has a 10 year lifespan doesn't mean Microsoft won't release a new console in less than 10 years. All it means is that they will continue making 360's until it's 10 years old.

If you don't know who I am, the feeling is mutual.

To be honest? I'm happy with the 360, for the most part. Sure, the new games coming out on multiple discs is a little annoying (Mass Effect 2, I'm looking at you), but most of my current problems with the Xbox aren't hardware-related. It's mostly racist twelve-year-olds, obnoxious frat boys, and the fact that M$ makes us pay a lot for some DLC and avatar items when we already pay for the service.

I wouldn't mind if Bungie had more time to polish their game (or else the game will end up rushed like Halo 2), so I'm all for waiting.

ISU Cyclones!

Bah, the "next" Xbox has always had some type of rumor for the past multiple E3's. Unless there's some evidence of the next console being on its way I'll always believe the rumors to be wrong like they've always been.

As for the Bungie game... they're going multiplatform with their next game, and presumably, with each game in the series for the next 10 years (hence the 10 year deal with Activision). So I don't think their next game will be a launch day title for the 360 since that's when usually you get your first round of exclusives out there.

Eh, I like the Xbox 360 and rather not buy a new one. But eh, I'm open for change...

Not hope and change though...

I also maintain that Chrome is weaksauce, and IE9 is fast and works very well

I remember reading that Kinect was/is supposed to lengthen the life of the Xbox 360. The "Slim" consoles are still relatively new too, so I would hope mine will be useful for two or three more years.
