Microsoft
and its
Bungie
Studios gaming unit are pushing to get gamers to migrate from the original
Xbox platform to the
Xbox 360
this holiday season.
Microsoft is planning to throw in a copy of the hugely popular
Halo 3 in an
effort to tempt users of the original console over to the next-generation
platform.
The offer is valid for current paid-up
Xbox Live members
using an original Xbox console.
Consumers have to buy an Xbox 360 between 21 November and 21 December, and
move their existing Xbox Live account to an
Xbox
Live Gold subscription.
Halo 3 was
released
worldwide on 25 September and became the
fastest selling video
game ever. The Halo series is now one of the
most
successful entertainment properties in history.
