Xbox HD DVD unveiled at E3
Microsoft built upon its recent press release and showed off some pics of the new HD DVD drive for the 360 which is definitely due out this year. The box, from the few glimpses we’ve had isn’t anything like as large as standalone HD DVD players and is a bit more comparable to an ordinary computer DVD drive (around 5” I think). However, even though Microsoft has wheeled the box out for all to see, there is still no indication of an HDCP compliant output. It will be very interesting to see how it intends to pull this one off.
Other hardware peripherals for the next-gen console included the new EyeToyesque USB camera, now given the official title of Xbox Live Vision, which will enable video-conferencing and video-mailing and should be available in the Autumn. Finally, there was also a new wireless racing wheel and a wireless headset.
