Says the magazine: "The controller will be a matt-black media hub with a mission to bring games to life in your living room with augmented reality, directional sound, and a four-player, finger-tracking Kinect."
The Xbox Next controller will be "an HD screen surrounded by the traditional 360 buttons and sticks." Continuing on, the report says "that touchcreen will be second only to Kinect in how you operate your console. It could be a remote control when you're watching TV, a browser when you're on the internet, extra buttons and information when you're playing a game or a portable display when you want to take your game with you."
What will the new system cost you? The magazine speculates the high-end console and controller will cost $600 at lunch, many times more expensive than the Xbox 360: "Microsoft are playing it safe with the CPU and GPU but running wild with the functions that will change how you play, but it won't be cheap."
