Peter Moore of the Future: next Xbox to use 2011-2012 tech

When the neXt-Box comes, the 360 will be so yesterday. - Image 1Does it hint at when the next generation of the Xbox hits shelves? A thread in the Videogame Charts forums cites an EGM interview with Peter Moore about the next Xbox. In the interview, Moore said that the Xbox 360 production team is now working on the next Xbox, and are “looking into what kind of CPUs will be available on the market in 2011-2012.”

Which pretty much gives a hard estimate on when the neXt-box sees the light of eBay, perhaps. Now because they’re focusing on next-decade tech, Moore may not have been referring to Zephyr, whose stats speak of incremental improvement to the 360 (unless people have gotten their project names screwed up lately). In fact, it’s a little odd that the EGM interview (or VG Charts, for that matter) would make mention of the Xbox 360-to-neXt-box generation gap, but not a word about an “intervening” Zephyr period.

Oh well. Anyone got a friend named Phil with a time machine in the garage we can borrow?
