now you see why XBLA games are going to be Windows 8 exclusive , like I said before the new Xbox will be a Windows 8 Box.

...Why? Seriously, what is wrong with a society that (likely) spends hours making a 56 page fictitious document to pass off as a "leak"? It blows my mind. Is there really that many bored people in this world?

So many saying its fake. Who the hell other than some company or paid firm would put so much effort into something like that? I really doubt a single individual would sit and make all that shit up.

Unfortunately, yes.

A decent number of things in it seemed believable to me though.

Xbox '720' makes zero sense.

Because it's not an official name.

Like the internet chose 720 as the name placeholder, probably many in microsoft and the industry did as well. It wouldn't surprise me if the next xbox still didn't have an official name.

Jeff_rigby could probably have written a small book with his speculation on a new PS3 browser and his speculation on the PS4.

Also if true I would say you Jaffe's prediction of the death of dedicated gaming consoles is technically correct. I mean this could fully be a generational leap, but if games get played on high powered set-top boxes they aren't really consoles anymore.

MS finally getting into the living room like they want has been my recent prediction of how they would leave the console market.

Probably done as a school project. I did a mock Best Buy pamphlet for a technical writing course.

Seems insanely plausible, but it doesn't say "Microsoft Confidential," which is something I've seen on EVERY internal MS document I've come across, even draft documents.

It says "CONFIDENTIAL | FOR DISCUSSION PURPOSES ONLY" in the top right corner of some of the pages.

you guys would be surprised how internal powerpoints and presentations look at some of these major companies... Certain companies have certain styles. Intel, for example, wants each slide completely filled with ttext/facts/graphs, with a bright yellow box at the bottom of each slide with a sentence summing up the key point. I mean a bright yellow, filled in text box. things you wouldn't want to show in a class project. but it's a part of company culture.

Most obvious fake ever? Page 4 name Apple TV as a threat; solidified its falseness.

Yet, I can't stop reading.

That is not "Microsoft Confidential," which is the standard for all MS stuff.

Slide 9: "GPU 64 ALU @ 1GhHz" .... "GPU 48 ALU @ 500 Mhz"

Those parts don't make sense. Graphics cards are up to 512+ shader cores. 64 ALU doesn't make sense to me.

Under the "Additional questions to answer for Todd" section...

"What is the difference in building on non Microsoft device vs building on non microsoft (i.e. androiddevices)?"


My brain hurts from reading.
