Xbox 720 and Playstation 4 a solution to revive the dying industry??

2013 is a much anticipated year for the video game industry. We already have Nintendo who released the Wii U and now it’s Microsoft and Sony’s turn to release their console refresh’s. With the video game industry seeing a downfall as a result of tablets like the iPad which are capable of gaming, these companies are going to have to do an extraordinary job to bring back the dazzle to video game consoles. Lets see what we can expect from the new consoles.

As of now, not much is known about the Xbox 720. Rumors have spread that it will come with a dual core GPU and 8 gigabyte of memory. It will probably feature a complete redesign in terms of appearance of the console as well.

The Playstation 4 is rumored to be powered by a top end x64 Amd processor, 8 gigabytes of memory and a 256 gigabyte hard drive. These are still the early days and none of the above data can be confirmed to be true.

The Wii U, which has already been released and seems to be selling pretty well. The Wii U CPU clocks at 1.24 GHz and has 3 cores. The GPU clocks at around 550 MHz.

2013 will be a fun year to see which game console wins the war!
