After news broke that Microsoft wouldn't be going forward with its expected, not-quite-yearly X0 event for 2007, GamesIndustry received word from MS spokesfolk indicating that something else was definitely in the works. Only hinted at by Xbox group manager Aaron Greenberg as a potential replacement for X07 proper, the new event is scheduled for before the end of the year.
According to GamesIndustry's report, the unnamed event will have "a UK point of view" as opposed to a continent wide focus. With development studios Rare and Lionhead headquartered in the UK, it's possible that the event could have a much greater focus on titles that didn't appear at E3, including Banjo Threeie and Fable 2, among other unannounced games.
