Microsoft announces new HD-DVD drive!
As reported at 1PStart… by me… Microsoft announced at their 25th anniversary bash in London a new HD-DVD drive for the Xbox 360. No price tag has been revealed, however we were told to expect the new drive sometime in ‘08.
Director of Business for Microsoft Europe, Mark Bennett, showed off the new features of the upcoming upgraded drive:
The interactive features actually work on HD DVD whereas Blu-ray titles are six to nine months away from getting features that actually work… there are more plans to incorporate HD DVD into the PC platform in the future.
I have to think that those of you who bought the HD-DVD drive for the 360 may be a little ticked off about this. I know I would, especially when you consider just how much this damn thing costs.

Now I am glad I didn’t jump on the free HD-DVDs deal with the current drive.
