UK Xbox boss Neil Thompson has revealed more of the company's plans for 360, explaining the thinking behind the decision to offer consumers a range of hardware options.
Speaking in a recent interview with Eurogamer TV Thompson said, "The whole strategy with Xbox 360 was that the way we built it from the Core machine up to the pro machine is, we could do two things. One, we could offer consumer choice, so they could come in whenever they wanted to, and decide to add onto it.
"But also, that gives us some flexibility, in that we can make offerings that we can change and move within the context of the Core system. So over the next two or three years I think, yes, we're in an evolutionary stage."
"The definition of the 360 is about the fact that we can make the machine you bought today different in a year's time through the software and the services that we can deliver, and change what that machine can do and enhance it and make it better."
Following the unveiling of Xbox 360 Elite, Microsoft has been keen to emphasise that the Core and Premium packages will still be available and that consumers will have a range of options to choose from.
