Microsoft’s Plan to Sell Xbox 360 for $9

Last week, The Verge reported that Microsoft is considering selling Xbox 360 for $99 with a $15 monthly subscription fee. This subscription fee would include Xbox Live and other video content like television and streaming video that have recently arrived on Xbox Live. Although Microsoft hasn’t confirmed these rumors yet, The Verge said that the low-cost Xbox might be available through Microsoft stores soon. We believe that this is a great idea, as it worked for cell phones and could work for video game systems too. With more streaming video content arriving on Xbox Live, paying $15 a month for a subscription makes more sense.

Nintendo’s Leap into Downloadable Games

Nintendo has announced that it will offer major video games as downloads, starting with New Super Mario Bros. 2 on the Nintendo 3DS in August. Gamers will have the option of downloading or buying the game on a cartridge in the store. Nintendo has also said that when it releases its new Wii U console later this year, gamers will be able to download or buy its games on a disc. We believe this is a bold move for Nintendo, and it will be interesting to see how gamers respond to this change.

Elder Scrolls Online: The Ultimate Gaming Experience

Fans of the Elder Scrolls games will be excited to know that ZeniMax Media has announced the release of Elder Scrolls Online in 2014. This is a massively multiplayer online version of the popular role-playing game series, and gamers will be able to explore the entire land of Tamriel with their friends. They can play cooperatively, solo, or player versus player, everywhere from elsewhere to Skyrim. We would like to implore gamers to remember to spend some time with their families and enjoy the real world before Elder Scrolls Online releases in 2014.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the gaming industry is constantly evolving, and we are excited to see what the future holds for gamers. Microsoft’s plan to sell Xbox 360 for $9 and Nintendo’s leap into downloadable games are just a few examples of the changes happening in the industry. Elder Scrolls Online is set to be the ultimate gaming experience, and we can’t wait to see how gamers respond to it. Remember to take a break from gaming and enjoy the real world too!
