WP Central

Update: Microsoft's lawyers (Covington & Burling LLP) have had the document in question taken down from the source, tacitly confirming the legitimacy of the leak.

Sometimes we have leaks with small tidbits and so on the rare occasion you become the motherload. That just happened minutes ago as what looks to be Microsoft's entire game plan for the Xbox 720 (yes, even they're calling it that) has just leaked online.

The certificate is chosen "Xbox 720 9-24 Checkpoint" and looks to be about two years old, but it is full of some glorious details about what Microsoft has (or had) planned for the living room. Everything from the 720's architecture to its base Os (Windows 8) is online to be viewed. Ex-Microsoftie Shane Nokes too notes it'due south "an old word deck" but non necessarily that it's legitimate (though the amount of details suggests that it is).

We're still going over the massive slideshow, but here are some highlights:

XTV - Xbox Television will be launched "Holiday 2022" and will be what it sounds like. Full support won't be till the Xbox 720 though in 2022. It will work on the Xbox 360, Phone and PC.
Fortaleza (Kinect 3D Glasses) in 2022 with WiFi for living room; by 2015, it will take a jail cell radio/4G for useeverywhere
By 2022 "Xbox experiences served up form the deject. Instantly on any screen."
Xbox 720 Media Hub - "Tape Tv set in the background and serve up to whatsoever device in the household.Stream your personal videos, music, photos and more and play them back from any device. Start and play your favorite Xbox games from other devices like phones and PCs with RemoteFX technology...Have your amusement everywhere. Start on i screen simply instantly pause and play information technology again from any other device makes it all-time manner to bask your TV, movies and music when yous're on the go."
Kinect v2 Sensor (2013) - Amend 3D Play Space (closer, wider, deeper); Improved Voice Rec.; 4 Player tracking; Dedicated Processing; Improved HD

Some now are speculating that Monday won't be a Microsoft Tablet but an "XTV" announcement. That makes sense every bit Los Angeles is the amusement home. Regardless, if Microsoft doesn't announce it Monday, you can bet that it'south coming soon (if it's to be ready for the holiday season).

We're sure at that place are more than nuggets in there, and nosotros'll update as we become through it. Nosotros tin imagine at that place are some nervous folks at Microsoft correct now but honestly this is some fantastic stuff.
