Zune not in the game business

If Zune is not in the game business then who will produce the portable game console for Microsoft? Will it be Xbox or Zune?

in reference to:

""We'll be adding 3D games such as Project Gotham Racing in the coming months and will continue to look at offering additional applications in the future. Stay tuned," the spokesperson added. The Zune HD is available now in the US, but a European release date has yet to be confirmed."

Zune integration coming to Windows Mobile

I wish it was a Zunephone and not some lame ass software integration. I think Zune could have designed a better phone by starting over rather than linking up to all the other phones but at least we'll see more Zune players soon.

in reference to:

"Zune integration into Windows Mobile has been rumored for some time. Some people even believed that a Zune phone was in the works at Microsoft (NSDQ: MSFT). Today, all the rumors are put in place, as Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer confirmed to Engadget that Zune integration is coming to the next release of Windows Mobile."

Xbox 1080 portable game system with Zune Xbox integration

This is one sweet concept for the Xbox portable device which sports a very cool Xbox X stle design and a huge 4.5 inch screen for what should be the top of the line portable game device on the market.

The Xbox 1080 would feature Zune integration with Microsoft Premium Content from games, movies and music available on the wireless game player. Get up to date Xbox games and your favorite tunes in a sweet looking handheld unit. if this thing had a phone in it then it might be the perfect device for me.

in reference to:

"If you were looking for a compact Xbox gadget that lets you play video games as well as watch movies and listen to music along with a host of other media and social networking capabilities, you would most certainly not find a gadget like that in the market today."
