Next-gen Xbox due in 2015?

Mysterious listing about a new hardware project points to unconfirmed launch date

A somewhat ambiguous posting on a web portfolio of a designer currently working for Microsoft has got tongues wagging about a potential 2015 launch date for the next Xbox console.

Posted by Ben Peterson, who was recently recruited to work at Microsoft's Interactive Entertainment Business, the art (spotted by ZDNet) reads: "Confidential / Collaboration with Microsoft's IEB Design Group investigating future user experiences and hardware for 2015."

The person who posted it is still a design student. More than likely just a student design project.

Also, they have just started advertising for hardware designers. It's very unlikely they would have a case design or release date of 4 years time before the hardware has been designed.
