Microsoft doesn’t mention next generation Xbox at CES press conference.

Next Xbox is not revealed at CES 2012

The Next Xbox was not revealed at Microsoft's press conference at CES 2012 as it turns out. Some rumors pointed to the show for a perfect spot to drop a bomb on the gaming world with a reveal by Microsoft's CEO. While Microsoft might not have had anything to say here, it still doesn't rule out E3 2012 as a potential reveal venue as previously rumored. Although one analyst believes there's a zero percent chance of that happening.

Steve Ballmer did reiterate the success of the current generation Xbox.

Xbox 360 has 66 million users worldwide

Xbox Live has 40 million subscribers

Kinect has sold over 18 million units (and is heading to PC on 2/1/12)

Here's a quick look at some of the highlights of Microsoft's Press Conference at the show, including a sneak peek at Windows 8 and the future of Kinect.

PS4/Xbox 720 definitely aren’t getting released in 2013.
It will be a 2013 reveal and 2014 release.

“Next Xbox is not revealed at CES” Well, no shit, Sherlock! It’s CES: The Convention for people with Pocket Pen holders and PDA’s circa 1997. If anything big is going to happen, it’ll happen at E3.
