ScrewAttack TOTALLY has the skinny on Xbox 720
While the rest of the world awaits the proper Xbox 720 reveal, ScrewAttack managed to learn all the juicy details and spoil the whole mess. Behold, Microsoft's grand master plan to edge out the PlayStation 4 juuuuuuuuuust slightly! This won't be surprising coming from a guy who hasn't even fully entered the current generation yet, but I don't have high hopes for the new Xbox. I've got this gut feeling that Microsoft will do everything monumentally wrong, pissing off consumers and devs in droves. I guess we'll know for sure once the company actually does unveil the machine, whenever that may be. If you want to catch more vids like this one, check out ScrewAttack's new Real Trailers series, which cuts through the bullsh*t and sows the seeds of truth about games like New Super Mario Bros. U and Final Fantasy: All the Bravest. Real Trailers - Xbox 720 [ScrewAttack] Did you know? You can now get daily or weekly email notifications when humans reply to your comments.
