The Rumor Mill: Microsofts Next-Gen Console to be Six Times as Powerful as Xbox 360?

Rumors of next-gen consoles shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone in the gaming community as we all want to know what the successors to our favorite consoles such as the Playstation 3, Xbox 360 and the Wii will be. The latest next-gen console rumor comes from popular gaming website IGN.  IGN reports that the next-gen Xbox or the "Xbox 720" will ship to retailers around October or November of 2013 and will be "Six Times" as powerful as the current Xbox 360.

According to IGN sources "mass production of the system's GPU will indeed begin by the end of 2012 but will not, however, be based on AMD's 7000 series Southern Islands GPU" Once again this is just a rumor until proven and i'm taking this with a grain of salt as well. I'm not really a Microsoft die-hard like some of my fellow writers on the site so i'm not really too keen on all of this information, but I would like to see some next-gen goodness in action no matter who it's from.

Child of Eden PS3 Version Delayed

The spiritual successor to the wildly popular (and still popular) Rez, titled Child of Eden has some eyes set on it since the unveiling at Ubisoft's Press Conference during E3 last year. With rhythm games seem to be a dying genre, it's nice to see that Japanese developers are still wanting to develop games like that.

Releasing for the Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 is pretty damn awesome and definitely be amazing to see it on a brand, spanking, new HDTV is something to really look forward to, unless you're looking to get it on PS3 and expecting to get it on the same day it gets released on Xbox 360.

Originally reported by IGN, announced for both to release on the same day, June 14th, yesterday, Ubisoft announced that the PS3 version has gotten pushed back, unfortunately. There has been no official date just yet, but it sure is a bummer to hear that both version aren't coming out together
