Windows Live boss mentions “new Xbox”

7 August 2012

Microsoft Windows Live general manager Brian Hall recently spoke during a podcast regarding the future of Windows 8, Office, a New Windows Phone, and the new Xbox.

While there aren’t any specifics about the unannounced console, Hall’s casual mention means things are obviously happening with the next Xbox in the Microsoft labs.

“We’ve operated Hotmail for about 16 years, we obviously have Exchange and Outlook that people use at work, and we just decided it was time to do something new and bring the best from each of those and put them together and release it right in time for the new wave of products that we have coming out with Windows 8, with the new version of Office, with the New Windows Phone and the new Xbox.”

Hall’s reference to a new console, along with the leaked documents showing off the alleged plans for Xbox 720 and domain registrations, are starting to put some weight to the rumours.
