Eurogamer<\/a>, Microsoft’s UK boss guy Stephen McGill has claimed the company won’t be putting out a next generation of Xboxes any time soon.<\/p>\n“We’ve no plans for another Xbox. You’ll continue to see us bring amazing new experiences to the console, without you having to buy a brand new console. A couple of years ago we didn’t have movies, Sky, Facebook and Twitter – now we’ve got things like Kinect,” he says. “We’ll continue to evolve those gaming and entertainment experiences through the power of software updates, rather than new chipsets and plastic.”<\/p>\n
Reminded that his colleague Aaron Greenberg had previously predicted a new Xbox in about five years, McGill adds that, “I’m not sure what the timeframe is. There’s a long long way to go with the experiences people deliver on this platform – we’re just beginning to scratch the surface.”<\/p>\n
Here’s to someone doing something interesting with Kinect then. And games with inflatable boat peripherals don’t count. <\/p>\n
