XBOX 360 to be getting Hulu???

Jun 4

Posted by RustyG in Technology | No Comments

Early beta builds of new Xbox 360 firmware look to have added streaming Hulu to the mix. Xbox already runs Facebook, Twitter and Netflix, this would be more over a nail in the coffin of traditional television. It also seems that the announcement may be just around the corner at E3 2010. It seems that Microsoft is trying to stay up-to-date with some of the new internet television boxes, with the likes of the Boxee Box, Apple TV, Popcorn Box and the soon to be Google TV. Will the Xbox become the main media center, or will it’s age begin to show??? We shall see..

So a few days ago, Microsoft announced that the Xbox 360 elite’s price will drop by $100. Along the same lines, the Pro will drop by $50 and the Arcade  will stay the same. There also will be some new packaging with the new price drop, that you will see in the weeks to come as the retail stores get their shipments in. This is right in line with the release of the sony PS3 Slim. This new announcement still keeps the Xbox cheaper than the PS3 and hopefully sell more units.

You can see some of the new packaging at Major Nelson’s Flickr account here.
