Microsoft sees no need for new console
| |
Posted on Wednesday, January 13 2010 @ 17:53:50 CET by Thomas De Maesschalck |
Microsoft Xbox product management senior director David Hufford told Guardian that his company sees no need to develop a new gaming console, as the Xbox 360 still has a long life ahead of it.
"I think it's important to say that the Xbox 360 is the console of the long future for us. There is no need to launch a new console, because we're able to give this console new life either with software upgrades or hardware upgrades like Project Natal," said David Hufford, senior director of Xbox product management in a briefing at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. "The Xbox 360 was designed for a long life, and I don't even know if we're at the midpoint yet."
Rather than release a new console, Microsoft is developing Project Natal to enhance existing systems. At a CES keynote, Xbox boss Robbie Bach said Natal will be released for the 2010 holiday season, ie in the run-up to Christmas. Hufford said the team had demonstrated at E3 that the technology worked, and now "we've asked the development teams to concentrate on making the games."
