Microsoft To Stick To The Xbox 360
The Xbox 360 was released a year earlier than the PS3, giving it time to gather its titles, satisfy gaming urges and establish itself as a next-gen console. Microsoft has announced that it will not be following that strategy this time around. In fact, it’s not even going to release a new console at all.
Microsoft Corp. will rely on its Xbox 360 game console for longer than the previous version because it’s getting harder to get consumers to upgrade, the head of the company’s entertainment unit said.
The software maker will focus on improving the Xbox’s games and features rather than rushing to introduce a new model.
The recession is most likely a contributing factor to that decision, so hang on to your Xbox 360 because you won’t be parting ways with it anytime soon. Fortunately, the reports about red rings of death seem to have died down lately, so at least you won’t have to worry about that too much if you still haven’t bought one yet. Do you think that Microsoft is making a sound business decision with this one?
