Zune Not Playing Games "Anytime Soon"
“The Zune isn’t playing Halo 3 anytime soon,” says J Allard, the bald dude who has now taken over the Zune department at Microsoft. He revealed to Reuters that games aren’t in the pipeline for the company’s media player, though considering the company’s pedigree, it should.
“I love games and maybe for someone with a 40-minute commute, it might be an interesting scenario,” he said. ”Thus far, the market really hasn’t proven out that it is a great scenario. Customer satisfaction with what has been done isn’t that high. The other challenge is with the platform. The games that you bought in your fifth generation don’t run with your sixth generation. … The rate of innovation, turnover, and variety of form factors makes it a tricky proposition.”
