Xbox's next-gen console, currently known as Project Helix, is set to bridge the gap between consoles and PCs. Microsoft has been vague about the details – other than the fact that it'll play "Xbox and PC games" – but rumors have long suggested that this machine will have some version of Windows running underneath the hood. To Ed Fries, one of the key creators of the original Xbox, it sounds a whole lot like the idea the console was building around in the first place.
In a new episode of The Expansion Pass podcast, host Luke Lohr remarked to Fries that "Project Helix sounds so much like the original vision for the Xbox."
