Xbox Portable Explored
By: C=E9sar A. Berardini - "Cesar"
July 28th, 2006
Over the last couple weeks, there has been much talk about
Microsoft's forthcoming portable media player, a.k.a. Zune or as many
like to call it (and with a bit of luck for Microsoft), the iPod
killer. But before the buzzword for Microsoft's media player began,
there were rumors of a portable Xbox. Dean Takahashi- the author of
both "Opening the Xbox" and "The Xbox 360 Uncloacked"- even
claimed that the software giant was indeed working on a handheld game
player, sometimes called "Xboy" or "Xpod".
By now, I don't think the release of a portable Xbox is a matter of
if Microsoft will, could or should release a gaming handheld. It's
just a matter of when. In my opinion, Microsoft is kind of forced to
release a handheld console, since both Nintendo and Sony have portable
gaming machines already in the market, and what's more, these systems
also interact with their respective next-generation elder brothers.
It's because of all these facts that I decided to explore the
possibilities of a portable Xbox.
