Itigaki, Team Ninja guru, talks about the Xbox 360 hardware, and also further confirms that Microsoft will make a major announcement in Japan later this month.

"The Xbox 360 has enough power without all the cores going into use. Even if just a single core is used for a game, it will still be several more times powerful than machines up until now. But we aren't satisfied at that kind of a level. Our programmers are having fun playing around with the machine. They're swinging around all the cores and making a game that shows the powers of the Xbox 360."

The Team Ninja head also further confirmed that Microsoft is planning a major announcement in Japan this month. We're currently thinking of whether we should create a new trailer for the upcoming Xbox 360 announcement in July, or if we should go straight ahead to work on the completion of the game," he said. "We'll play around with the beta it for a little bit more and decide."
