MGS chief states Xbox 360 games may require HD-DVD

So yes, we still remember Microsoft executives saying Xbox 360 gamers will never require a hard drive to play games, only to be shocked by the Football Manager packshot stating that the game did require the HD after all. Similarly, the Xbox guys were even more adamant about that the games would never require a larger disc than the current dual layer DVD, and that HD-DVD would only ever be used for displaying HD movies through your 360. Will that turn out to be slightly off the truth as well?
Click the image to the right for one page of what Warren News published in their Consumer Electronics Daily newsletter today. Some spicy quotes about HD-DVD vs. Blu-Ray, sure thats a hot topic. The nasty one is at the bottom though:
Microsoft hasnt determined yet whether to do Xbox 360 games in blue-laser HD DVD, but has ruled it out for this holiday when it ships its HD DVD drive for movie playback through the Xbox 360, said Dave Luehmann, gen. mgr. - Microsoft Games Studios. Speed of loading is Microsofts big concern about HD DVD games on the Xbox 360, Luehmann said.
OUCH. Lets all hope this is a wildly inaccurate misquotation and that the HD-DVD promises dont go down the same drain as those stating the Core Pack will play all 360 games. Something tells me well be seeing some damage control press releases soon
