Surprise: Microsoft Working On Next Generation Xbox

We haven’t seen any grand E3 announcement of Microsoft or Sony’s newest console, but it’s safe to say both companies are elbows deep in circuit boards and prototypes by this point. Heck, you could probably bet that Nintendo is hard at work on the Wii U follow up. Some interesting tidbits have emerged regarding Microsoft's next Xbox.

Twitter user superogatory has discovered a few professional profiles that highlight Microsoft personnel working specifically on the Xbox 360 successor.

Here’s the crew:

• Jeff Faulkner – Xbox next gen creative director
• Jonathan Harris – Senior creative director
• Patrick Corrigan – graphic designer working on “groundwork and integration for branding elements for next-gen XBOX…”
• Joe Langevin – Microsoft intern “designed and simulated high speed data buses…”

While these jobs listings might not contain the most riveting details, simply imagining what the next Xbox will be like is exciting.
