Surprise! Xbox One neutered for Australia
blog Look, I don’t know what y’all were expecting at this point. But if you’ve been reading Delimiter for a while, you may be aware that global technology giants do not always launch the same products in Australia that they launch internationally, they don’t always launch them at the same time, and they almost never launch them at the same price point. That’s why we’re not entirely surprised to find that some of the key features hyped this week as part of Microsoft’s Xbox One reveal won’t be available in Australia, at least initially. Kotaku tells us in several articles (click here for the first one, and here for the second; both are worth reading, if only to find out what Australians don’t know at this point):
“Today we revealed that Live TV, arguably the major focus of Microsoft’s reveal, will not be available outside of the US at launch … Similarly it was difficult to pin [Microsoft Australia marketing manager Adam Pollington] down on a price or a release date.”
