USB thumbdrives with pre-loaded gaming content
USB thumbdrives are nothing new, but these new releases from SanDisk are being specifically marketed at the Xbox 360 userbase. The Cruzer Crossfire range is aimed directly at console gamers, and the Xbox 360 is the only current console that can make real use of them (the PS3 is sure to follow, of course).
Available in colour-coded capacities from 512Mb to 4Gb, at prices ranging from 55 to 330 dollars, the Cruzer Crossfire thumbdrives could be used for quick and easily transfer of music, photos, etc from your computer to your console. So, what makes these any better for console owners than existing ranges of thumbdrives? They will come pre-loaded with promotional content. What exactly that content will be, SanDisk aren’t telling us yet. It’s likely to include wallpapers, music, videos of upcoming games, and if we Xbox 360 gamers are really lucky, maybe some Gamer Pictures for our Gamercards?
