Steve Ballmer, CEO hos Microsoft, er kendt for at blive lidt for begejstret og tale over sig, når det gælder Microsofts fremtidige produkter. Og til en presse konference for et Microsoft event for nylig, gjorde han netop dette...igen.
Til spørgsmål om den nye xbox svarede han følgende:
"I think we’re going to blow by Sony with our next box. I absolutely think we’re going to kick their backsides, so to speak. I think Xbox 1 has been a fantastic product. We’re not market leaders yet. There’s Sony, there’s us, there’s Nintendo. When we get Xbox 2 in the market, there’s going to be Xbox and the other guys. I'm feeling a little frisky on this topic right now!"
"the new device is just unbelievable with its new graphics, the things it can do and its amazing innovation.
Microsoft has games coming for the new Box that will have the same impact on the new console that Halo had on Xbox. In fact some of them are the greatest games ever written".
Som sagt, bliver manden let begejstret, og det lyder lige lidt lyserødt, men tilsæt et gran salt, så er vi nok nede i et mere realistisk niveau.
Vi glæder os i hvert fald til at få syn for sagen.
