Microsoft Teases Exclusives

Second Announcement?

Microsoft also announced deals to bring new high-def video to the Xbox Live Marketplace, including New Line Cinema's film "Snakes on a Plane" and coming releases from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment's direct-to-video division.

an upgraded hdd seems a bit useless unless they plan to sell games as digital downloads or sell tv and movies outside of the US (i would probably get one if they were to start doing games through live but not just tv) re hdmi sure great to have it as an option if your buying your first 360 or replacing a broken one but it doesn't seem something to get overly exited about.

so...spend $400 to get the old premium (ie: people who already have one)...and now spend $180 to get the new HDD....lame....

You're right. Microsoft should never upgrade any of its features ever. :/

It's funny they make the point of saying it will come with a HDMI cable in the box.

That's why I never buy a new console when it first come out. I usually wait about 2-3 years before bying it.

So are they not selling additional black controllers?

so...you don't think its sucks that if you upgrade an original console that makes it $100 more than the new console...

i have no problem with upgrades....but selling the 120GB HDD for $180? lame....

    • Apple reluctantly forces strict new age checks on Texas users starting today by Paul Hill Apple will begin enforcing the Texas Age Assurance Law (SB 2420) following a recent court ruling that lifted an injunction on SB 2420. Starting June 4 (today), Apple will enforce strict age-verification and parental-consent rules for new Apple accounts created in Texas. This move will affect children under 18 who go to download apps or attempt to make in-app purchases. Apple previously expressed privacy concerns related to this law, but compliance is now mandatory for the company, nevertheless. Apple will use several APIs to follow the law. Principally, the Declared Age Range API will fetch the specific user age bracket (Under 13, 13-15, 16-17, or 18+) and a verification method. The Significant Change API (PermissionKit) will trigger a system dialog for parental consent if an app gets a major update or an age-rating shift. There is also a new property type in StoreKit that allows developers to automatically check when their app’s age rating has changed on a user’s device and then use the Significant Change API to request parental consent. Finally, App Store Server Notifications can be configured to tell developers when a parent revokes consent, blocking app launches. To ensure they are ready for these changes, developers must immediately use Apple’s sandbox testing environment to validate these APIs in their apps. For any developers out there finding this to be inconvenient, get used to it. Other regions, such as Utah, Louisiana, and Brazil, are looking at, or have implemented, similar rules.
