Microsoft has stated their desire to "catch up" with Sony and not be left behind in release date of consoles in the next batch, and an October release date would secure them their wish. An Xbox2 domain name has been purchased, and reports that the owners of xbox360.com sold their domain to Microsoft have surfaced as well. Only time will tell the truth with the name of the next Xbox, but although October is rumored it is a very strong rumor for a release date.
