Xbox 360 Blu-ray player rumor returns right on cue

Microsoft could make 360 Blu-Ray addon, and possibly a 360 with built in Blu-Ray


By Thomas Ricker

Two years and 1 month ago today we saw the kibosh come down on the Xbox 360 Blu-Ray player rumor. This morning it returns with the prospect of a Microsoft player as early as May. According to Smarthouse, their "insiders at Microsoft" claim that a standalone Blu-ray player is already working in-house. With the appropriate approvals it could be on sale within 3 months. A 360 with built-in Blu-ray is also being worked on although the possibility of moving it out to retail is less clear with HD downloads on the horizon. Not that any of this is unexpected given the circumstances. We never expected Microsoft to go down with the HD DVD ship -- they're just passengers on this ill-fated voyage, not the captains.

Thanks to makifo for bringing this to my attention.

I heard about this a while ago, and was hoping that they would work on it pretty fast and get it out there to the people of the 360 and it looks like they are.
