Xbox 360 line to be reduced to Arcade and Elite? |
Some leaked packaging images suggest that only two models of the Xbox 360 will be available in the future. Depicted in the above photo are current and planned boxes for the 360 Arcade; the latter box lists only one other 360, the 120GB Elite.
The Pro, in production since 2005, is MIA. It’s typically the best-selling Xbox system. The photo backs up earlier reports that Microsoft is phasing out the Pro. Game bundles may help clear out earlier stock, after which the Elite’s price is expected fall to that of the Pro in September.
Microsoft is battling increased reliance on downloadable content, which uses more hard drive space, and a slim PS3 that may arrive as quickly as August 18th.
