It's no secret Microsoft is preparing an Apple / iPod rival but details on the MS player are now beginning to filter through. A Microsoft spokesperson told Next-Gen.biz: "You can plug your Zune device into your Xbox 360 to stream music, pictures, and video, via USB cable, to enjoy all your Zune content on the TV in your living room."
The statement added: "Additionally, you can connect your Windows PC to your Xbox 360 using Windows Media connect to stream your Zune content that way as well." No further details were offered about the possibility of transferring Xbox Live Marketplace content from the Xbox 360 to Zune.
Salman from Tech4Gamers writes "Mortal Kombat 9 revived the series from a low point after bringing it back to 2D combat. It marked a new high-point for the franchise due to its incredible roster, exciting cinematic story mode, and high-octane combat."
That game was actually goated. It was the first time ever that I actually tried to get good at a fighting game. Unfortunately the online connection was so dogshit it made it hard to enjoy and eventually I gave up. Haven't really played much fighting games since.
Microsoft has slashed the prices of games across the Xbox 360 store in preparation for its July 29th closure.
The Dishwasher
Vigilante 8
Two non-BC and no-PC-version Arcade titles I downloaded recently. Dishwasher's sequel is on Steam at least.
I've also downloaded Ninety-Nine Nights II (shame the first wasn't available). I still want to download Burnout 3: Takedown before the weekend's up, though that is still the full $9.99 non-discounted price
The Xbox 360 Marketplace is officially shutting down in three days, which means dozens of exclusive, digital-only 360 games will no longer be available to purchase anywhere else once it does.
The Xbox 360 will be almost 20 years old next year, and to celebrate this milestone Microsoft have decided to obliterate all of its online functionality.
Fortunately, the X360 was jailbroken a long time ago, so a good part of its library is available for download from 'alternative' sources. Still, it's a bummer to see the store going away.
Dawn of The First Day
-72 Hours Remain-
Also they can keep the store up for life if they wanted.
Series X for the back compat titles, and OG Xbox and X360 for those not on BC. I pretty much bought all of the digital games I want for the 360 so I am good.
ButI will be getting this Zune Player when it comes out.\I do have a 60 GIG Ipod which I'll probally leave in the car for my tunes since the thing crapped out twice already. I woul dhave no issues with Ipods if it weren't for the Dead often batteries and falty HDD.
I'm sure the Zune will have its issues. It's def not perfect, I actually think they forgot to add some things but nevertheless I'm sick of my Ipod not being able to sink and all that jazz.
nice.
stream video from zune to tv.....interesting
I am so getting myself one of these.
Are they making a Zune variation thats like a nano? I'm only really interested in something that I can have on me while I'm running.
i am getting one of these. they look so cool
