Xbox 2 to be shown at CES in January?
Posted by Curll on July 19 '04 at 12:29 PM
On January 5th, 2001, Bill Gates unveiled the original Xbox at the
Consumers Electronics Show. Next year's CES, taking play January 6-9,
2005 in Las Vegas, Nevada (Official site!), it appears that Microsoft
will once again use the show to unveil its new gaming console.

No details have emerged as to what capacity the machine will be shown,
whether just tech demos or actual games or if it will just be
mentioned or if it will be playable. That's merely speculation at this
point, but, in some form, Xbox 2 will be at CES in January.

Already known is that several companies are working on Xbox 2 titles.
Aside from Microsoft's own studios, Electronic Arts is currently
working on next-generation versions of their popular Need For Speed
and Madden franchises. Other titles in the works include games from
Digital Illusions CE, Climax, Starbreeze Studios, id Software,
Ubisoft, Epic Games, and Microsoft's own FASA, Day 1 Studios, and Rare
Ltd.

The answer? No, of course not. But it has exactly as much validity as the
story below, which has absolutely no attribution and no source for the
information that Xbox 2 will be shown "in some capacity" at CES (even though
that capacity may merely be the mentioning of the machine in passing.)
Another useless bit of bullshit speculation that would be virtually
meaningless even if true, brought to you by your friendly neighborhood
Cygnus-Man.
