Digitimes is reporting that the Xbox 360 HD-DVD add-on is going to be selling for $200 and that it will hit by this Christmas.
Taiwanese game developers appear to be much happier with the concept of an add-on drive than Sony's approach of building the drive into the console.
External drives have more flexibility than built-in models, the companies pointed out, while adding that despite BD having a much larger storage capacity than HD-DVD, pre-installation of BD drives may decrease the market competitiveness of PS3 units.
