Blu-Ray drive for Xbox 360? Microsoft still denies.

Chinese language Economic Daily News had recently reported that Pegatron has won an order from Microsoft to manufacture a variant of Xbox 360 with Blu-ray Disc ROM drive.

The report further claimed that the software giant is going to launch this version before the end of the year.

The latest reports however contradicts that. A Microsoft official has stated what they have been saying since sometime now: “As we have stated, we have no plans to introduce a Blu-ray drive for Xbox 360. Games are what drive consumers to purchase game consoles, and we remain focused on providing the largest library of blockbuster games available.”

Can Microsoft stay away from a possible Blu-Ray drive for the Xbox 360 gaming console? Only time will tell.
