There have been no concrete statements by Microsoft or any rumors of development of a new system. Microsoft commented in early 2009 that a new system is not in any considerable development.The successor to Microsoft's Xbox 360 is commonly called "Xbox 3" or "Xbox 720." Or if Microsoft decides to progress the title in increments of 180 it will likely be named "Xbox 540". Although their chief concern at this time is to lower the cost of the Xbox 360 and had not started on the Xbox 720's development as of November 2006,[3] Peter Moore has supposedly told EGM that the next Xbox console would be released between 2011 and 2012.[12] Microsoft EMEA veep Chris Lewis said in October of 2006 that work had already begun on the 720, however he did not say just how far that work had gone.[13] It has been speculated that the Xbox 720 will include a camera capable of tracking the movement of its users and not just the controller.[14] Microsoft has confirmed they are going to begin developing and producing their own computer chips which will probably be present in the 720. The research will be done by two groups, one in Redmond, Wash. and one in Silicon Valley. The man heading the Silicon Valley research team says that it is probable that voice interactive technology would be incorporated into the next Xbox console.[15] Also they may make a Xbox360-mote. So far, they're are no plans of microsoft making an Xbox 360-mote, and instead will make Project Natal that has motion sensing for playing games without using controllers and is due for a release in October 2010. Despite this all happening, Microsoft WILL release their OTHER 8th gen console, the Xbox One.
