Xbox 360 launch date announced!



Xbox 360 launch date announced!



Finally, Microsoft have come out with a definite launch date for the Xbox 360, with North America getting it on the 22nd of November, followed by Europe on the 2nd of December and finally Japan on the 10th December.

One has to wonder why the ten day delay? Surely a simultaneous world-wide release would have been possible? Ahh well, only ten days…

In the meantime, the Tokyo Games Show is kicking off tomorrow, Microsoft have sprung a last minute list of the games they’ll be showcasing to Japanese consumers. Micorsoft are hoping to show gamers that this list represents a string catalogue of games coming up for the Xbox 360, with plenty of titles available from launch with more following very soon after…. As to just which ones will be coming out when… well, your guess is as good as mine…

The titles are as follows:
