neo1980 Posted June 24, 2002 Share Posted June 24, 2002 TOKYO (Reuters) - Microsoft Corp said on Tuesday 39 game makers will offer a total of 47 titles for the company's online game service set to be launched this autumn for users of its Xbox console. The U.S. software giant said a starter kit for Xbox online games will be priced at 6,800 yen ($54.5), which includes service fees for the first 12 months. Last month, Microsoft said it was preparing a global online gaming network for Xbox in a bid to jump-start Internet-linked video games. http://story.news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=stor..._microsoft_dc_1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
