If they do, they will update the profile to 2.1 the day after it hits, making it unable to use some special feature that the PS3 will be able to use.

your probably right, like just the Xbox 360 Elite (in blue?) or a add-on like Hd-drive...


Microsoft Chief Executive Steve Ballmer said:
QUOTEMicrosoft will work with the Blu-ray next-generation DVD format in some form following the demise of Toshiba's HD-DVD, which Microsoft previously supported. "We've already been working on, for example, in Windows, device driver support for Blu-ray drives and the like, and I think the world moves on. Toshiba has moved on. We've moved on, and we'll support Blu-ray in ways that make sense."

That makes no sense. Even if the 360 gets blu-ray as an add-on( only way for it to get it ), all it will be able to do is play movies, not games. And will definitely be like at least $200.

Ballmer: 'We'll support Blu-ray'
>> Yesterday we got Sony saying they were talking with Microsoft to bring Blu-ray to the Xbox360 followed Microsoft's quickly denying there are plans to introduce a Blu-ray player for the 360. Today Microsoft chief executive Steve Ballmer admitted that the company is working on ways to support Blu-ray, altho he didn't specify the 360 just yet:

"We've already been working on, for example, in Windows, device driver support for Blu-ray drives and the like, and I think the world moves on," said Ballmer at the Mix08 conference.

"Toshiba has moved on. We've moved on, and we'll support Blu-ray in ways that make sense," he said.
