Microsoft denies Xbox 360 optical upgrade

Comments

Really ??

They will never say that they are planning to introduce Blu Ray Drive ... It will just hurt their current sales.. It's very plain and simple..

Xbox360

MS pissed off original xbox owners by killing the system the minute the 360 came out, so why wouldn't they do it a second time. I bought a PS3 because of this very reason. After a treatment like that there is no reason I would ever buy one of their products again

BR/360

The only way it would benefit is if it were actually just an add-on, rather than included. Considering the average user can hack firmware and make copied games if they want to. Why pay extra to screw up that capability, (though it could probably still be done). The price would make the 360 quite obnoxious, almost as much as Sony's.

Having the option to upgrade to a BR player would be incredible. Nobody has the money to fork over 5-600 on a gaming system because it's BR, but if they have the option to spend a bit of coin later, they're always willing.
