Xbox One Won’t Be The Last Xbox Console
In a conversation on Twitter, Phil Spencer has confirmed that the Xbox One will not be the last Xbox home console. That means a few years down the line, we can expect to relive the recently passed console launch hype. I think we can all agree that the wait for a new console is like a burrito filled with anxiety, excitement, and a small zest of obsession. He also states, albeit subtly, that the next console won’t be completely cloud-based either. He states that local compute will be around for quite some time. This can only mean that a cloud only console is probably out of the question.
@BuldozerX I don’t. I think local compute will be important for a long time.
