What does it
bring to the table? This is one of the questions that gaming enthusiasts ask
whenever a new product is set to be released into the market, and the reported
Xbox 720 is no exception.
Latest
reports have indicated that the new Xbox of Microsoft will have the capability
of binge able to remain online up to around three minutes even if the internet
connection goes down. Although no official statement was released by Microsoft in
connection to the report, the upcoming model of the game console will
reportedly suspend a game while it troubleshoots the problem if there is an
interruption of up to around three minutes.
This recent
report is connected to an earlier report that showed some screenshots of the
development kit of the Xbox 720. The report indicated that the console will
have an always-connected and always-on feature.
The game
console from Microsoft is expected to be introduced at the E3 gaming conference
in June. It will reportedly have a power state that will allow it to remain online
all the time even when it is not used, using a small amount of electricity
while doing so. The always-on feature will allow gamers to easily connect and
reduce waiting time while it restarts or when it is being updated.
The Xbox 720
will reportedly also come with an enhanced Kinect motion sensor that will also provide
the console its power source. The next-generation console will reportedly not
function without the Kinect sensor.
A number of
reports have emerged in connection to the Xbox 720, including reports that it
will not offer Blu-ray support as well as the possible launch by April, which
is two months before the E3 event.
Aside from
the game console from Microsoft, Sony will reportedly unveil the PlayStation 4 sometime
before the E3 event. If these reports are accurate it may steal some of the
thunder of the Xbox 720 when it will be introduced into the market.
