Xbox 2 - No News Coming At GDC

Microsoft Corp. will not unveil the next generation of its Xbox video game console at the Game Developers Conference in March, defying some industry expectations, an analyst said on Monday. Citing a conversation with Microsoft management, American Technology Research analyst P.J. McNealy said the company was more likely to take the wraps off its new console in May at the broader Electronic Entertainment Expo in Los Angeles.

Microsoft officials could not be reached immediately for comment.

As opposed to E3, which takes in publishers, marketers and retailers, GDC is aimed more narrowly at game developers. It was at GDC five years ago that Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates unveiled the original Xbox.

The new Xbox, code-named "Xenon," is widely expected within the industry to launch later this year. Microsoft has said little publicly about it, though, and on a conference call last week suggested there would be little news until E3.

Last week Microsoft cited strong sales of its "Halo 2" video game for the Xbox as one of the key drivers of its financial results for the December quarter.

dam... a new x box... in my mind the @!*% xbox is amazing enough... and everyone can agree with the full potential of the x box expecially shown in halo 2 and the upcoming realse of doom 3... i dont belive they will realease a new system until really late into the year like in the fall... at least then they will be able to sell a shit load for christmas... but lots of people arent to keen on spending another 500 - 600 dollars for another NEW system... hopefully microsoft will be generious and not charge too too much... besides bill gates has enough money anyways... and hes getting a shit load from live too... wow were putting a shit load of money into that already rich mans pocket.
