Aaron Greenberg: No Browser for Xbox 360

Posted By | On 01st, Apr. 2010

According to an interview with CVG, Xbox product director Aaron Greenberg, it has been revealed that the Xbox 360 will never get a web broswer. He said: “No. We really believe that the web browsing experience on TV is a poor one, and the real magic is to take those web experiences and optimise them for the living room. That’s what we did with Netflix. So, sure, you can go on the PS3 and go to Facebook and and try to navigate, but it’s an absolute nightmare.”

He also added: “No disrespect, there’s things I love about the PS3, but that’s not one of them. We want the online experience to be fun and optimised for the living room, and we’ll continue to add more applications to get more richness”
