Microsoft Announces Xbox 360 Supply Increase

Mar 21 2006, 10:03am EST | by Luigi Lugmayr

Microsoft announced today that they will be increasing xBox 360 consoles delivery two to three times beginning this week.

Xbox 360 contract manufacturer Celestica Inc. is now also producing xBox 360 consoles along with Wistron Corp. and Flextronics Corp.
Today's supply of Xbox 360 consoles is still dominated by expensive bundles. With new games on the horizon, it would of course be better to just be able to buy a Xbox 360 premium for the standard price of $399. I wonder how long that is still away.

Microsoft also announced the game line-up for Spring. By June 80 games are supposed to be available for the Xbox 360. The highlights are The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter and Lara Croft Tomb Raider: Legend.Via the Xbox Live Marketplace new content for the existing games Project Gotham Racing 3, Perfect Dark Zero and Kameo: Elements of Power will be made available.
More details in this Microsoft press-release on the xbox.com site.
