There is much speculation as to what the next generation of gaming consoles will bring and in particular what the controllers will be like. With Microsoft rumoured to be unveiling the next Xbox at E3 this year, it is expected to come with a tablet touchscreen controller in the style similar to that of the Sony PS Vita.
These rumours come by the way of Xbox World Magazine who have offered insights into the next Xbox and that the new touchscreen controller will have improved input options.
As well as revealing the new controller, the magazine has allege that the next Xbox "will be a matt-black media hub with a mission to bring games to life in your living room with augmented reality, directional sound, and a four-player, finger-tracking Kinect."
They also claimed, "That touchcreen will be second only to Kinect in how you operate your console. It could be a remote control when you're watching TV, a browser when you're on the internet, extra buttons and information when you're playing a game or a portable display when you want to take your game with you."
