XBox 1.5 coming our way ?
According to Gamesindustry.biz rumors are floating all over Japan that Microsoft is getting ready for a new invasion of the country with a completely redesigned XBox in a much smaller case
Weekly magazine WAM has reported that the new system will be launched alongside the MMORPG True Fantasy Live in Japan later this year - a move which would make sense, given that True Fantasy Live is one of Microsoft's key hopes for invigorating sales of the Xbox in that territory.
Also reporting on the new Xbox is respected Japanese games magazine Dorimaga, which speculates that the forthcoming hardware revision is the reason why Japan has not seen an Xbox price cut in the last few months - with the price of the old hardware expected to drop when the new version appears on the market.
So, will this XBox 1.5 be released in Europe aswell or only in Japan ? And will it co-exist next to the current XBox which will be dropped in price or not ? And do you care about all this ?Also reporting on the new Xbox is respected Japanese games magazine Dorimaga, which speculates that the forthcoming hardware revision is the reason why Japan has not seen an Xbox price cut in the last few months - with the price of the old hardware expected to drop when the new version appears on the market.
