GameCenter discusses the Xbox
GameCenter put up an article with some more details about the Xbox yesterday. They're ramping up development right now:
"We shipped our first XDK, which is the software development kit for developers," explained Bach. "By the end of the summer we will have shipped over a thousand of those to well over 200 developers that will be working on the project in various ways. That's a big milestone for us, because that's the tool that people are going to use to start creating these games. The first XDK is basically a PC development system, very much like what most people do when they start. And then over time that XDK will migrate into a full console system, which will be the full Xbox, as we complete all the components."
The HBO Spin: with development actually occurring on a PC (at least at first), it's possible that the gap between the Xbox version and the PC version might be less than people thought. Thanks to TomeOne for the heads-up. (Louis Wu 21:31:31 UTC)
