Next gen Xbox will have Blu-Ray!

4.2
Earlier today, a Microsoft Durango Development Kit popped up on the internet. Included with the leak were 5 images of the "Microsoft Durango XDK Documentation Setup" which shed light on previously unknown parts of the console's hardware and functionality.  

What we find to be the most significant aspect of the leaked documentation can be seen in the image below. It says: "Durango consoles will have a Blu-Ray Disc drive. Disc media will be used for distribution, but during gameplay, games will not use content from the optical disc." What do you think of this?

ArcTicKn1GhT Could this mean Sony and Microsoft teaming up to make the new Xbox?


I doubt that would ever happen. They are huge rivals in this industry.


Who are they rivals with? The Xbox 360 had came out before bluray was popular world wide and there was no point for microsoft to change their current design otherwise it would be considered a next gen, they have no quarrels with this, where do you get your information from?

Soc I have never really noticed a difference in bluray to HD :/


Me neither, they must be pretty similar. Or our tv's bad :D


They can hold a significantly larger amount of data, meaning more content per disk, at greater quality.

That's a good idea that they are upgrading that. Always have liked blu-ray better than HD.

Vox IMO: Bluray is completely overrated and highly priced, Means if they have bluray drives flashing will be a little harder and more risky :(


I don't think it will be as overpriced, specially if it's in mass production.


I'm sure they won't make it over priced I seen this and was shocked though I thought ps4 bought the blu ray
