Microsoft has announced the date on which its next generation games console will be unveiled. A launch event at the Xbox campus in May will be followed by more revelations at the E3 games conference in June. This announcement comes three months after Sony unveiled its forthcoming PlayStation 4 machine. The name “720″ is not even confirmed yet but it has been called with that since the rumors began. All indications are that the next Xbox will arrive in time for Christmas 2013. Will the Xbox 720 come with a Blu-ray drive or not? This is the most intriguing question. If you remember, Microsoft did not go with Sony Blu-ray format and they failed on that side.
