Industry insider Shinobi602 has let on that Microsoft are indeed creating a strong powered Xbox. In response to a tweet asking whether or not he had heard information that Microsoft were working on a console to rival the upgraded Xbox 1.5, Shinobi602 responded “I do”.
This is in-line with a large number of reports that have leaked in recent times. The most credible being the leak out of a Chinese production plant.
@damgectrlkiller I do.
