xbox_360-blu-ray-integrated price war
Remember yesterday we told you about the next generation Microsoft Xbox 360 which will have Blu-ray (See Here), of course you must remember this could be just a rumor.

Well if Microsoft do indeed integrate Blu-ray into the Xbox 360 this means that Microsoft will take on Sony and this is when a price war would begin.

So with Microsoft playing Sony at their own game, some sources have said that the Blu-ray Disc drive will cost Microsoft between $95 and $100 which is much higher than the $18 to $20 DVD drives that are already in the Xbox 360.

Microsoft could be selling the Blu-ray set up at a loss which means that Sony would have to or should we say forced to sell their PS3 at a lower cost to compete or do something else to win it all. The way we look at it if Microsoft are putting Blu-ray in their next-gen gaming consoles then it will be a good all rounder to see what happens and of course consumers being the real winners.

Frontlines: Fuel of War: two new trailers for PC and Xbox 360

Check out these two new trailers for Frontlines: Fuel of War, one is the game intro and the other is the Remote Control Warfare Gameplay. The opening scenes are both action packed and explosive.

When watching the trailers you can see that it is best to send in the drones to do all the dirty work. Many have rated this game so low already; however I feel that people are being a little hasty. The game does look good, great news if you have a PC or Xbox 360 then.
