Microsoft Set To Debut Xbox Live Upgrade

Posted by simoniker on from the talk-smack-without-sports-game-excuse dept.

Thanks to reader dj_paulgibbs for pointing to this Yahoo story talking about further upgrades to Xbox Live that Microsoft plan to unveil at E3. Yahoo's sources say these include "advanced community features such as voice chat and locater services that operate independently of games in progress", and also mentions a new "Xbox Music Mixer" for audio, as well as the ability to play video transferred from a PC. This is separate to the Xbox Live software upgrade we mentioned last week.

    I find it interesting that we are getting this news of xbox live updates, but still no news on what the fee structure will be like after the year expires. One has to wonder if there is some serious debate going on over this up at redmond.
