XBOX portable? klausimas tik "kada"

Now Shane Kim, corporate vice president of Strategy and Business Development for Microsoft’s Interactive Entertainment Business

Another piece of the puzzle falls in. Back in May, we told you all the info we got on Microsoft’s plans for a digital entertainment handheld that will merge the Xbox and Zune platforms into a single device. We speculated on the possibility that the Tegra computer-on-a-chip from NVIDIA could power such handheld and later, Microsoft confirmed that the Zune HD will use the aforementioned chip.

 

Now Shane Kim, corporate vice president of Strategy and Business Development for Microsoft’s Interactive Entertainment Business, has acknowledged that a portable Xbox is not a matter of “if”, but “when”.

 

"For us, it's a matter of focusing on 'when', because if we chased after a mobile or handheld opportunity, we would not have the resources and ability to do things like instant-on 1080p HD, Facebook, Twitter, Project Natal." said Kim in an interview with Kikizo.

 

"And so we've chosen to focus on the living room experience from a hardware standpoint, if you will, but we're building a service in Live that will... will extend to other platforms. No question about it."

 

The former vice president of Microsoft Game Studios believes the incursion of the Xbox platform into the mobile space is inevitable. The question is how Microsoft will enter the mobile gaming arena:

 

"So the question will be, how do we enter into that market - do we do our own device, do we create our own phone - that's a question for the company itself - do we continue to go down the Windows Mobile path, which is that path that we're on today, etcetera, etcetera. But believe me, we understand the importance of that device in people's lives. And the more we make Live about valuable service and add more content, and add more ways to connect with your friends through it, we're going to need to make sure that it's on all the important platforms in people's lives, including PC."

 

In our editorial, we told you that the Microsoft handheld is supposedly an Xbox Live Anywhere device and our sources explained the role that Xbox Live and other services will play in this portable video game system. Coincidentally, Kim mentions the Xbox Live Anywhere initiative in this interview and confirms that when Microsoft enters the mobile gaming space, it will use Xbox Live as the “connective tissue”

 

"We talked about Live Anywhere a few years ago. Live is the connective tissue. You're starting to see that now - we integrate Netflix, we integrate Facebook, we integrate Twitter - because we understand that customers don't want an island experience, they want to be connected to the rest of their lives."

taigi microsft turbut KURS savo nesiojama konsole ir ziurint i ju ZUNE bei visu networku patirti manau gautusi gan neblogas dalykas

o ka jus manot

Man įdomu koks bus grafikos varikliukas ir kiek skirsis nuo PSP

Kagi, manau geras atsakymas y sonio psp. Paskatintu konkurencija ir pan. As uz kad butu toks dalykas.

jei ir sukurs,tikiuosi nebus toks kaip xbox360 zephyr su šimtaprocentine galimybe gaut rrod

konsole pati nieko verta jei neturi geru zaidimu,tai cia pirma jiem reikia surinkt gera porcija zaidimu jei jau nores leisti portable boxa.siaip aisku gerai,taciau nzn ar dabar pats tinkamiausias tam laikas,kai karaliauja DS ir PSP igauna nauja pagreiti.aisku nereikia pamirsti ir iPhone tiesiog zaidimai eina vienas po kito.o jei dar viena nauja konsole prie kurios reiks atskirai dirbti kiekviena zaidima jai pritaikant per nauja.gandu siaip visokiu yra,bet manau dabar MS pagrindinis demesys yra i Natal krypti ir i zaidimus butent jam

konsole pati nieko verta jei neturi geru zaidimu,tai cia pirma jiem reikia surinkt gera porcija zaidimu jei jau nores leisti portable boxa.siaip aisku gerai,taciau nzn ar dabar pats tinkamiausias tam laikas,kai karaliauja DS ir PSP igauna nauja pagreiti.aisku nereikia pamirsti ir iPhone tiesiog zaidimai eina vienas po kito.o jei dar viena nauja konsole prie kurios reiks atskirai dirbti kiekviena zaidima jai pritaikant per nauja.gandu siaip visokiu yra,bet manau dabar MS pagrindinis demesys yra i Natal krypti ir i zaidimus butent jam

bent jau kaip supratau is straipsnio tai jie nori pirma susitvarkyt su natalu ir ka prisizadejo i updates sudeti ten visus twitterius ir panasu social stuff... tada jau turbut kazka naujo paims. o tas laikas... normalus tas laikas kaip tik reik lyst naglai ir rodyt ka gali, gal ir ta pati psp GO nustelbs tik deja kad praleistas tas auksinis laikas kai nesiojamu konsoliu nisa buvo mazdaug laisvoka ... bet biski pasistengt ir viskas normal butu, vien tik tai kas priviliotu jiem kruva zaideju butu du analogai ant ko sony nuo pat pradziu pasisiukslino ir dabar negali deti nes senesni aparatai zaidimu taptu biski beverciai, kaip ir ankstesni zaidimai ant nauju versiju

Labai noreciau sulaukt Xbox portable,jei butu nulauziamas ir turetu panasi xbox 360 zaidimu kolekcija 100% pirkciau

Būtu įdomu pamatyt. gal ir visai nieko daigtas, bus, tik svarbiauia, kad geru games būtu.

Butu gerai jeigu tokia konsole butu, bet grafika manau bus prastesne nei xbox 360 ir idomu kiek batarke laikys

Grafika turi būti prastesnė, manau bus į PSP panaši. Šiaip įdomiausias dalykas išvaizda ir iš ko bus paleidžiami žaidimai, ta prasme kaip PSP UMD diskai ar kaip.

grafika nebutu panasi i psp nes psp yra jau sena technologija. Pažiekit ką gali nauja nvidia Tegra ir suprasit kad jai xbox kurs nešiojama konsole ji turės tikrai gera grafika.
