Default Blu-ray Xbox 360 Planned By Microsoft

Rumours were circulating today that Microsoft is set to dump HD DVD and bring out a Blu ray Xbox 360 by as early as May 2008. The move will allow the Company to go head to head with the Sony PS3 gaming console which has been credited with being one of the main reasons that retailers have preferred Blu-ray over Toshiba’s HD DVD.

External BR drive? Another power brick needed? No thanks, if they want to provide a challenge to PS3 for Media Player & Game Console in one, they need to have an XBOX360 with NATIVE BR drive, not an external drive in my humble opinion.

Don't forget, it is Microsoft. Does that surprise you at all?
