New XBox One is expected at E3<\/h2>\n

Is this the new Xbox One design?<\/p><\/div>\n

A new XBox looks very likely to be announced at E3 (yep, this one above). \u00a0Whilst I \u00a0like the look, the big concern I have is what it does to the overall Xbox hardware offering – will parents be hassled for a new Xbox this Xmas just because it supports 4K?<\/p>\n

What does the games industry think of this muddying of the landscape?<\/p>\n

It’s reported that the “brick” power supply has been consumed into the main unit – this can only be a good thing as the current solution is really ugly!<\/p>\n

Finally, will the new system support a way of getting a VR unit into the hands of those Xbox users? (my money is on “yes”).<\/p>\n

There’s no official news as yet on how to access the footage that’s been captured (which to be honest is plain odd!)<\/p>\n

More video of the event on YouTube<\/a>.<\/p>\n
