 Send to email | Rumor: new Microsoft console dev kits at EA [update: EA disagrees] in developmentdevelopment-kiteaelectronic-artsmicrosoftxbox |  By JC Fletcher
el 06-May-2011 |
According to an unnamed source speaking to Develop, development kits for a new Microsoft console are in the offices of one of EA's studios. The source, which does not work for either EA or Microsoft, had no specific information about the hardware except that it came in a PC shell and was shipped to EA last month.
That little information is actually enough to rule out the updated Xbox 360 dev kits revealed last month, since those come in Xbox-shaped cases. The source believes ("but did not have certain information," Develop disclaims) the new console will launch at the end of 2012, which would put it in direct competition with the Wii successor, and, if true, would make an E3 reveal seem likely (again, to compete with the new Nintendo console).
However, a Eurogamer source responded to this Develop article to note that a new Microsoft console probably won't be revealed at E3.
Update: EA's director of corporate communications, Jeff Brown, told IGN that the story was "a total fabrication -- 100 percent not true."
