<p>The Xbox launch will start at 6PM BST on Tuesday and be broadcast live from the Microsoft campus in Redmond, Washington, running for one hour.</p><p>Microsoft has officially announced very little about the Xbox launch. We know a next-generation FIFA will be shown off on stage, as will the new Call of Duty game, Call of Duty: Ghosts, but other than that, the company is keeping schtum.</p><p>What we're expecting, though, is a lot of talk about consolidation. Microsoft's already sold off its internet TV service to Ericsson and there's speculation that a version of the Windows Store, which hosts games and apps, will be feature on the new Xbox's dashboard. We could see a living room PC-style machine, encompassing features like Windows Live Tiles, Windows Store, Skype and video streaming into one beneath-TV box.</p><p>Alternatively, that stuff could take the backburner and, like Sony, Microsoft may focus more on exclusive games and game developers. We've speculated already how the next console generation will be won by software rather than hardware, so aside from FIFA and CoD, we might get to see an armful of new games.
