Hombre, eso de que se necesite solo el x10 de la potencia grafica...Sabiendo que la demo se movia ni mas ni menos que en un TriSli deGTX580, y que una sola GTX580 es 10 veces la potencia de la GPU de PS3 pues...Otra cosa, las fisicas de esa Demo eran bajo PhysX, asi que si la nueva Xbox monta una GPU AMD nos olvidamos de esas fisicas tal cual.

Saludos.

PSM3 cree que en el E3 se podría saber algo de PS4:

“Games industry magazine MCV cited their own sources when they joined PSM3 in confirming PS4′s debut at June’s E3 show, but Sony boss Kaz Hirai served all of us a big glass of ‘shut up’ by denying that there will be any new console at E3. So who’s telling fibs?”, stated the March 2012 issue of PSM3. “Nintendo will attend E3 with Wii U, Microsoft will make a next-gen announcement, and Sony need more than Vita to convince the world they’re equipped for a new console era. Don’t hold your breath for hardware designs, but some proof that PS4 exists is vital to Sony’s success. Expect a name –Playstation 4, duh – at E3, with more at TGS.”

Yo por mucho que digan Sony y MS estoy seguro que en el e3 veremos algo de todas las maquinas nuevas.

and Sony need more than Vita to convince the world they’re equipped for a new console era.

Viendo el tono, tonterías para vender revistas.

Pues las consolas actuales ya tienen que hacer virginias para poder mostrar lo que se muestra en la tech demo del 2004 del UT3.  A mi el samaritano de la tech demo del ut3.9  no me a sorprendido ni una quinta parte de lo que lo hizo en su día el ut3 o el motor source de valve.

Microsoft will make a next-gen announcement

Porque esta afirmación? y viniendo de una revista de la competencia. Aveces creo q los sonyers tienen mas ganas de ver la xbox 720 q los usuarios de xbox   .

CryEngine devs 'turn to next-gen target systems' A group of unnamed developers are specifically working on next-generation game projects with CryEngine 3, according to the tech’s vendor Crytek. CryEngine business executive Carl Jones said studios “are already using CryEngine 3 for games with target platforms significantly higher in power than the current-gen consoles”. Develop understands that a range of studios are currently building titles for Microsoft’s successor to the Xbox 360. In some cases, dev houses have spent more than a year on various projects. Several internal Sony studios, meanwhile, have begun early work on PlayStation 4 projects. However there is little evidence that third-party companies have access to the future console. In October, Develop published a report drawn from a range of sources within the middleware sector that pointed to an E3 2013 unveiling of the so-called Xbox 720. Since then it had been rumoured, and subsequently denied, that Microsoft will reveal the system this July in Los Angeles. Last year Crytek publicly rejected claims that its UK games studio was working on Xbox Next projects. Now in an interview with the upcoming issue of Develop Magazine, Jones insisted that Crytek’s engine is ready for next generation projects. He said Crytek does not need to emulate Epic Games’ strategy of building a new engine for successors to the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360. “We've been planning for next gen development since we started CryEngine 3,” he said. “We'll be showing more on this during 2012. We don't need to rebuild our engine to deal with higher spec gaming devices, which will come on line in the next few years.” There are currently about 50 commercial CryEngine games projects in production, the Crytek exec said. DEVELOP ENGINE SPECIAL Jones’s comments come as part of Develop’s industry-leading examination of game engines, drawing views from the likes of Epic Games, Havok, Unity, Blitz Games, Terminal Reality, Stonetrip and more. The issue will launch on February 23rd, while extra copies of will be distributed for free at GDC. “Right now, I think the engine space is in a good state,” Jones said in the feature. “Last year Crytek doubled our engine business from 2010, so we're happy with the demand for CryEngine 3. There's good competition and a lot of choice for developers. “In future, engines will have to provide more and better tools, as games become larger and closer in quality to CG movies, but still needing quick development times. “These criteria drive a need for faster tools and pipelines; and support for more platforms, as so many devices will be games-capable in future.”

- Crytek piensa que CryEngine 3 es un motor preparado para funcionar en plataformas mucho mas potentes que las actuales. Por ahora no ven necesidas de realizar una nueva version del mismo, como es el caso de Epic.

- Tienen pensado mostrar en 2012 nuevas cosas que demuestren lo que puede lograrse con este motor en la next gen.

- Develop Online afirma tener conocimiento de que hay varios estudios trabajando desde hace mas de un año en la proxima maquina de Microsoft. Entre ellos estarian Crytek UK.

- En la actualidad, hay unos 50 titulos en desarrollo que haran uso de CryEngine 3.

Salu2

Todo apunta a que esta vez Microsoft no sería solo con el Unreal Engine e intentará hacer su plataforma compatible desde un inicio con el CE3, ojalá podamos ver cosas como el video de CryEngine for cinema.

Los de Crytek UK son los de Homefront 2 para ¿2014?

“are already using CryEngine 3 for games with target platforms significantly higher in power than the current-gen consoles”.

A saber para ellos que significa "significativamente mas potentes" xD. Ojalá "significativamente" no sea X6 si no mas

Si de verdad Xbox 720 va a salir hasta finales de 2013 debería ser "significativamente" mas potente que Wii U xD

Según una oferta de trabajo Xbox 720 podría llevar una tecnología 3D:

Yet another job post suggesting Microsoft is currently working on its next-generation Xbox has appeared, this time suggesting the fabled device will house 3D technology. First spotted by tech site BGR, the job listing in question appeared on Microsoft's site earlier in February. Asking for an Algorithm Research & Development Engineer for Xbox team in Israel, the listing's emphasis on developing new 3D imaging technologies soon raised suspicions that the job was focused on developing tech for Microsoft's next Xbox. Specifically the post asked for an individual interested in developing "image processing algorithm and 3D imaging technologies which will serve millions through the world". The rumour follows on from a similar report published in January by IGN. In it, IGN similarly reported that the next Xbox - commonly referred to as the Xbox 720 - would house a processor that supports 3D. The reported 3D tech support is one of many Xbox 720 rumours circling the the cyber highways. Prior to the job posting, a report from Xbox World magazine claimed a number of unnamed sources have confirmed several details regarding the currently fictional Xbox 720's design. The magazine reported that the next Xbox will be "a matt-black media hub with a mission to bring games to life in your living room with augmented reality, directional sound, and a four-player, finger-tracking Kinect." Additionally, not letting a lack of official word get in the way, the company suggested that Microsoft was working on a tablet-like controller. The controller will reportedly be similar in size to Sony's recently released PlayStation Vita handheld console. "That touchcreen will be second only to Kinect in how you operate your console," wrote Xbox World magazine. "It could be a remote control when you're watching TV, a browser when you're on the internet, extra buttons and information when you're playing a game or a portable display when you want to take your game with you." Microsoft is yet to release any official word on its next Xbox

¿Me pregunto si de ser cierto se tratará de 3D para la TV o 3D para Kinect?

Algo curioso que acabo de descubrir. Inicialmente la consola iba a llevar 256MB de ram en vez de los 512MB actuales, eso ya lo sabíamos:

Given our best estimate of memory pricing and our overall cost target, a total capacity of 256 MB is targeted for the product.

Pero lo curioso es que la CPU iba a ser inicialmente una CPU a 4Ghz y no a 3.2Ghz como resultó al final:

The CPU is a custom 4GHz PowerPC CPU designed specifically for Xenon. It consists of 3 CPU cores running in a SMP model. Each core supports 2-way Simultaneous Multi-Threading (SMT), allowing a total of six simultaneous hardware threads. The architecture is scalable to accommodate a late binding decision on the exact number of cores depending on the final cost model. All cores are identical and have specially designed vector floating point acceleration (VMX2) and a shared 1MB L2 cache.

Al parecer pudo haber tenido menos o mas cores, dependiendo de los costos. También la CPU deribada de un Power4:

64bit PowerPC, derived from Power4 architecture.

Otra cosa interesante es que la API es DirectX9/10:

GPU: This is the main system controller hub containing the CPU’s Bus Interface Unit (BIU), the memory controller, a DX9/10 3D rendering core, system coherency controller and IO interface. It is broken into two main sections: the Northbridge (BIU, Memory, IO) and the 3DCore. The 3DCore is a 500MHz unified shader architecture based on the R500 and uses 10MB of embedded DRAM for the render targets and z-buffer to provide more consistent rendering performance.

Y también desde un principio estaban preparados para HDMI:

This list can be boiled down to allowing for 2x memory, future use of HDMI/HDCP. I think other expansion issues such as RTC and USB for Helium are out of place in this document, as they are more implementation-specific.
