Chris Lewis, the VP of Interactive Entertainment at Microsoft Europe, has done the unexpected: he stood up for his company’s machine. No wait, that’s totally expected.

In an interview with trade magazine MCV, Lewis said that the Xbox 360’s upcoming release lineup contains cross-platform titles that “will just work better on Xbox Live”. He doesn’t seem to expound, but let’s remember that Live’s been around longer and is more established than the competition.

Aside from the cross-platform games, Lewis also said that Microsoft has some key exclusives lined up for the months through to Christmas. He also emphasized content and networking, saying that Microsoft has “more content partnerships for Xbox Live.”
