Microsoft To Boost Is Xbox 360 With Windows Live Messenger


When you have a year old product which needs to compete with newer models, you have to come up with new features (and/or versions) to keep the consumers’ interest alive. Microsoft knows this and lately is adding new interesting features to its Xbox 360 gaming console.

In March the Redmond company announced the Xbox 360 Elite, shortly after Sony launched its PlayStation 3 console in the PAL territories.


Xbox 360 Elite will include a 120GB hard drive, a high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) port, a high-definition cable, and a premium black finish for the console, wireless controller and Xbox LIVE headset. Xbox 360 Elite has enough space for a library of Xbox LIVE Arcade games and thousands of songs, as well as downloadable high-definition TV shows and movies available on Xbox LIVE Marketplace.


The new 120GB hard drive also will be sold as a stand-alone accessory to give current Xbox 360 owners greater choice and flexibility in their games and entertainment experience. Additional Xbox 360 Elite accessories, such as the black Xbox 360 Wireless Controller, Xbox 360 Play & Charge kit and the Xbox 360 rechargeable battery, will be available separately. The Xbox 360 Elite and its accessories are expected to begin arriving in U.S. stores on April 29. Xbox 360 Elite will have an estimated retail price of $479.99 (U.S.) and will come packed Xbox LIVE Silver Membership and one-month subscription to Xbox LIVE Gold.
