Microsoft Prepping Booby Traps For PS3 and Wii

Richard TevershamWe earlier featured an article about the sweet nothings of MS’ Richard Teversham for the Nintendo Wii and the Sony PS3. Well, he has more jib-jabs to say to the competition. According to this guy, Microsoft is prepping some harmless spoiler tactics in anticipation for its competitor’s console launches.

When asked for specific plans and antics, he said, “I don’t want to reveal any plans at the moment because we want to keep a number of surprises up our sleeve…We will ensure we are good value and we’ll do that through having a variety of pricing on games, a variety of pricing on console offers.” If you’re thinking that one of those spoilers would be a price drop, well we’re very sorry, but that’s not gonna happen as Teversham himself ruled that possibility out too.

But it seems that the marketing manager’s statements imply of a revamping of the current Xbox 360 bundles maybe by amping them with additional accessories or games. The HD-DVD drive add-on would definitely go ma-no a ma-no with the Blu-Ray equipped PS3, but until no official details are announced, all we could do is speculate. But certainly, the next-gen console wars may get dirty, and dirty is almost always interesting.
