360 conference in Japan



Microsoft have today been holding talks with Japan over the future of the Xbox 360. It began with Takashi Sensui expressing his dissapointment at the under performance of the 360 in Japan. On a positive note he told the packed crowd that the Xbox Live Marketplace has been very successful, with 520,000 downloads so far.

The talks focused mainly on the new games that are being released, including the role playing game, Blue Dragon, due for release in the winter.

Other snippets of information included a demo of Lost Odyssey which will be released in the Autumn, and a new Final Fantasy game for 2007.
