After seeing its biggest sales week in history during Black Friday, Microsoft has announced that they sold over 1.7 million Xbox 360 units in USA in November. Details after the jump!
Although a Dashboard update is always seen a welcome visitor by Xbox 360 users across the globe, not everybody is completely stoked by one or two of the features Microsoft added with its latest one.
Microsoft has made some significant changes and announcements this year, most of which have been met by favorable public opinion.
If you're an Xbox 360 owner then you're probably acutely aware that Microsoft has a brand new, completely revamped version of the Dashboard is on the way. Being the main interface into everything that goes on inside an Xbox 360, the Dashboard is an integral part of the experience, and this upcoming update is the biggest change it has undergone in quite some time.
Microsoft's Kinect peripheral for the Xbox 360 - allowing gamers to interact in their environment similarly to the Nintendo Wii - has been an unquestionable and unprecedented success.
While Black Friday is done and dusted, it is time for Cyber Monday. For those unaware of the term, Cyber Monday is a term used for the Monday that follows Black Friday. It is a one-day online shopping event where companies lower prices (and hence, profits) in order to gain more revenue. Generally speaking, Cyber Monday deals aren’t as good as Black Friday’s, but they are still something every consumer electronics/gadgets enthusiast should look into. Since we’re a technology blog, we’ll be covering different Cyber Monday deals throughout the day. In this post, we’ve listed Cyber Monday deals on Microsoft products which you can check out after the break!
With Microsoft's Xbox 360 console now getting a little long in the tooth, rumors are circulating about what the Redmond outfit has up its sleeve for the next generation of hardware.
According to those familiar with such matters, Redmond-based Microsoft will be rolling out two variations of its next-gen Xbox – a premium unit for the hardcore gamers, and a more entry-level stripped-down devices containing the bare essentials.
Compared with years passed, it's been a pretty good PR year for Redmond-based Microsoft. The Windows 8 Developer Preview was released to the public a lot earlier than previous iterations, and it seems potential consumers have been impressed by the dramatically faster booting times allied to the sleek Metro-tiled interface.
Those booting up their Xbox for another fun gaming session will find an update available on Tuesday, December 6. The long awaited revamp of the Xbox LIVE interface will include many new features. A few lucky players were selected to preview the update, but the official launch will now be available to all early next month.
