Xbox 360 | The Number 1 Console Worldwide

Microsoft’s Don Mattrick has kicked off Microsoft E3 event today by announcing its flagship Xbox 360 console has gone from being the biggest selling console in North America to the most popular console worldwide.

YouTube App For Xbox Now Available!

Days after the release of the recent update for Xbox's Dashboard, Microsoft has released YouTube app so now you can watch videos directly on your big screen, through your Xbox 360.

Being the world’s most-viewed viral video site, a platform within Microsoft’s fast-advancing Metro UI should turn out to be a positive move for all those concerned.

YouTube for Xbox LIVE includes support for the immensely popular Kinect accessory, which turned out to be the fastest selling gadget of all time. Through the YouTube app, you can see your Watch Later, Playlists, Favorites, and Subscriptions. The like / dislike button is available, as well as captions and a preview of the video’s description. Intriguingly, there doesn’t yet appear to be a comments section.

Microsoft is taking the leading role in transforming consoles into more than just gaming portals. Rumors have suggested the next Xbox console, set to drop in 2013, will include an out-and-out console for the avid gamers, alongside a second unit which will sit as more of a home entertainment system for the streaming media market gradually creeping up on us.
