Xbox 360 is Microsoft’s successor to their Xbox video game console, previously referred to during development as “Project Xenon”. The console is expected to be released in November of 2005 in the U.S., and the launch in Europe is expected only a few weeks later. The Xbox 360 will compete for marketshare against the PlayStation 3 and the Nintendo Revolution, once they are released. The Xbox 360 was officially unveiled on MTV on May 12, 2005, a week before E³. The system’s retail price has not yet been determined by Microsoft, but it is set to be “in the neighborhood” of $300 U.S. Dollars, according to Microsoft Corporate Vice President J. Allard.

With the launch of the Xbox 360, Microsoft’s online gaming service, Xbox Live will go through a major upgrade adding a basic non-subscription service (Silver) to its already established premium subscription-based service (Gold).
