It hasn't even been three weeks since Christmas happened in '08. You may still have your Christmas tree sitting in your living room and unopened presents yet to be played, but its time to start thinking about the upcoming holiday season. Microsoft's Aaron Greenberg stated in an interview with Eurogamer that there may not be a large update this spring and we might have to wait until later this year.
It might also be a good idea to start saving up some money now as Greenberg also mentioned that there will be a lot of other new goodies that we don't know about yet. "I can safely say that if you're an Xbox 360 owner today, you will end 2009 with a whole slew of new features, new content, new partners, new games that today you don't know about."
Since we already know they are planning on releasing Halo 3:ODST later this year, hopefully we can expect a few other big titles to drop that we don't already know about. The complete interview can be found at http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/microsofts-aaron-greenberg-interview
Quote by Eurogamer:
Eurogamer: Now the New Xbox Experience has launched, can we expect a familiar spring dashboard update that introduces further changes?
Aaron Greenberg: The team is focused on launching the Primetime channel for the spring. New Xbox Experience allows us to provide new features on a more regular basis, so you'll see us deliver smaller updates throughout the year."
"We will definitely package some things together, but we haven't specifically committed to doing just two big updates. We want to add new features when they're ready. Then, for holiday perhaps, we'll do something big. But exactly how that will work remains to be seen.
