First chips are going into development apparently.

I'm not sure I like the idea of single use games. I enjoy grabbing pre-owned bargains, but I suppose the way things are going with online passes etc it was inevitable.

further internet trawling is hinting towards late 2013, early 2014 being the release of xbox720 and ps4

if anyone else has any good sources please add.

 

I remember reading years ago before the 360 was out and they had the same "will not play second hand games"

Dont think it will happen, also cant see it being called 720.

 

720 is just the press name for now until they announce it.

I hope it doesn't happen. Although its already started with online passes and its something that game companies want rid of.

 

They have said that the 360 and PS3 have a ten year life span and wont release another until it is up.

 

well in the past its been 6 years between console's next release and the xbox 360 has been around for 7 years now.

The fact that they are hardware testing already means it wont be long.
