Old news or new? If new...this could be huge and it shows that MS has incredibly big plans for it.

Very detailed stuff and if true could be a game changer.
Pardon the pun.Posted 11 months ago # -
Whoah!
That's HUGE!
Looks authentic to me. It definitely seems old, in that it still refers to the WiiU as being "heavily rumoured", and refers to, but doesn't go into any sort of detail on SmartGlass.
The Kinect Glasses thing is massive.
The complete cloud experience is massive.
This is amazing stuff.
I think the internet's about to go nuclear with this thing...

Very interesting if legit. Seems MS are planning this to be the last console you need.

Bullshit lol. No one calls it 720.
720 is a stupid name. So Xbox is finally going to make 720p image?
I like how they call it "Kinect v.2" or "Confidentional" on every list. FAKE all over it.
P.S. CPU and GPU always on. Great fantasy. Probably Next Xbox have 20 coolers inside.

The "Fortaleza" Glasses Stuff is amazing if real. Nice find anywho.

'Always on' thing is actually something (of many things) that makes this sound more authentic...
Saw this comment on another site:
"ARM was specifically circled and said “always on”. The current 360, even after several CPU and GPU die shrinks is still too noisy for even basic tasks because the full 3.2 Ghz PPC cores are running all the time the console is on. ARM is designed to run in the sub 1W range."

Holy shit. That really has an authentic feel to it doesn't it. If it's true, it seems pretty fucking ballsy.

Fake.

^ OG's shortest ever post. Newsworthy in it's self ;-)

LOL!

No if this was all so fake as some of you say without a doubt, how can the document speak of SmartGlass option in the 360, when the doc was upped in may to the site?
DO keep that in mind.

I'm skeptical too.

Now with the post being remove, I've started to become curious, although I do think it'd make more sense for MS to simply not act on a leak to prevent confirming it.

What is it that makes you sceptical?
Posted 11 months ago # -
Cynicism.
Posted 11 months ago # -
I suspected as much...
When you think about it logically, there's pretty much no way at all that it's fake.

Another thing why it is fake:
The TV shows a screenshot from a tech demo for ATI-4*** GPU series, but sorry Bro they changed it to AMD since 5*** GPU series since they wanted to unify the brand with the upcoming Fusion APU aka "Trinity".
So much Fake in this.

They changed it in 2010.
The doc is from 2010.
Try again.

That's the point. Because 4XXX GPU series is from 2008 and they are showing old demo of the 4XXX series in the picture.
there are a lot of old pictures in the document.

That just sounds like grasping at straws to me.
If you look at the picture, the guy's also holding a three button controller with one hand...

It doesn't matter. It's just a quick image for an internal document to show to seniors or investors who aren't bothered with such details.
Just look at the placeholder that they used for the 720. It looks like a low budget DVD player!
Nah, sorry. The pictures are just to give an overall impression and get a message across.
If there are any actual technical or business details that are unjustifiably wrong, then I might begin to doubt, but 'they used a 2 year old logo in a picture' seems a bit desperate.
