Epic Talks About Next Gen Console Ideas

Gears of War house Epic Games knows a little something about working with hardware -- not only have they created one of the best selling franchises on the Xbox 360, but their Unreal engine is used by a large amount of games. Which makes them qualified to give their opinions on what they'd like to see in the next generation of consoles.

While the obvious answer is "better graphics", they also want an increased online portion for advanced networking within games and the console itself, and an integrated Kinect sensor into the next generation of Xbox.

Those with good memories may remember that Epic had a hand in convincing Microsoft to boost the Xbox 360's RAM, which makes this particularly interesting.
