Xbox 720 being tweaked to match-up to the PS4?

4th Apr 2013 | 11:30

Anything Sony can do…



The advantage of letting Sony go first with its PS4 announcement is that Microsoft now has time to tweak the Xbox 720 to ensure it matches up with Sony's console.


And that's just what it is doing, according to Ubisoft Montreal CEO Yannis Mallat, who told Eurogamer that it's been a long five-year wait for the game maker - "much longer than we were anticipating".


Without letting any actual detail slip, Mallat said that the next Xbox would be "aligned with what Sony announced".
Social

The means "it's going to be connected. It's going to be social. It's going to be immersive. It's going to be interactive".



Talking about the games that Ubisoft is developing for the next-gen hardware, Mallat bigger up the "mind-blowing graphics" but added that "the connected aspects and the social components will be what will define the difference between a next-gen experience and a current-gen experience."


As for when we'll see the fruits of Microsoft's labour - that's still anyone's guess but we've got our fingers crossed for a reveal at E3 2013.

They could overclock the cpu/gpu so that it can be on the same level performance wise as the PS4 and in return stay in the xbox tradition of overheating and hardware failure

the xbox 360 failed because Microsoft was too stubborn and arrogant to pay attention to why Apple left PowerPC in the first place.

They wont make that mistake again.

I'm tired of all these reports that basically tell us nothing. Ms needs to unveil the console or put all these rumors to bed because at this point, it's all negative press.

These threads aiming to throw shade on either new console are corny. Enjoy whichever console you own or plan to purchase and keep it moving.

video game journalism sucks.

Take a quote out of context and create your own headline.
