Microsoft Suing To Recover Merchandise From Woolsworth

6 Jan 2009

Former UK retail giant Woolsworth is on its way out of its business, but it still has a whole lots of Xbox 360s and games sitting in its warehouses. And now Microsoft wants it back.The Times UK is reporting that Microsoft is preparing a legal again to reclaim millions of pounds of hardware and software stock being held by Woolsworth's distribution arm Entertainment UK. Although the stock has already been paid for, Microsoft has the right to reclaim it under rules that allow them to take it in lieu of debts.Woolsworth is currently under administration by Deloitte, which would potentially be able to resell the merchandise on the cheap. In the meantime, the retailer will close the rest of its doors Tuesday. We'll just have to see if Microsoft can reclaim all of those unsold copies of Halo 3 before they're sent to the bargain bin. ...

Look out Japan! Red Xbox 360 controllers coming soon

6 Jan 2009

Filed under:

Japanese gamers can finally stop holding their collective breath, as Microsoft has finally announced a release date for the limited edition wireless red controller in the Land of the Rising Sun. More specifically, the company has announced that the red controller will only be sold as part of a bundle with the Play & Charge kit. How is this different from the same bundle that has been available in North America since last year? We suppose the biggest difference is that you can only buy one with yen, ¥6,279, specifically. The bundle will be available in Japan beginning on March 5.

Xbox 360 Games Not to Buy in the Bargain Bin - 2008

6 Jan 2009

2008 was one of the best years for gaming that I can remember, some really stellar titles were released for Microsoft's Xbox 360 system. The unfortunate thing about such a good year is that with every triple A title there is bound to be an equally horrible one. Thankfully we are here to keep you as far away from these games as possible, even when the prices are slashed and they end up in the bargain bin. Check out our full list of what not to buy from 2008 after the jump....

Massive Layoffs Imminent at Microsoft?

6 Jan 2009

Microsoft LogoIt looks like Sony isn't the only corporation with a videogaming division that's being hit hard by the global recession. According to a report by The Independent, Microsoft is considering the possibility of cutting at least 10 percent -- or maybe as much as 17 percent -- of its global workforce in an effort to save costs. The story points to rumors that recently appeared on Fudzilla, where the scope of the potential cuts were first reported. According to Fudzilla, while some parts of Microsoft -- namely the volume licensing department and the Xbox division -- are doing well, other parts had to cut their expected sales in 2009 by as much as 90 percent. That means there would be far less work for the staff in these departments to do, and would therefore create a large amount of redundancies.With about 90,000 Microsoft employees around the world, as many as 15,000 jobs could be threatened. Eliminating 10 percent of its workforce could save Microsoft up to $1.2 billion dollars a year, but it would also be the first mass layoffs in the company's 32-year history....

Molyneux: Gaming in 2009 'looking a bit dry'

6 Jan 2009

Filed under: ,

Being brutally honest, Lionhead Studios' own Peter Molyneux gave BBC his industry predictions for 2009 and, truthfully, isn't really all that excited."Next year [2009], well, it's all looking a bit dry," admitted Peter Molyneux, adding that "all the triple A titles came out this Christmas." Continuing his lack of 2009 optimism rant, Molyneux mentioned that "there is stuff in 2010 we can look forward to, off the top of my head I cannot think of anything next year that really excites me." Well sir, with the utmost respect, we do not agree.[Via Joystiq]
