微软总裁辟谣 没有任何卖掉XBOX业务的计划

　　日前，在美国加州举行的一次会议上，微软今天2月份才上任的新科CEO——Satya Nadella对之前传得沸沸扬扬的微软将要剥离并卖掉XBOX业务的传闻作出了回应，他称，公司现在没有任何把XBOX业务卖掉的计划。

　　Nadella说：“我很赞同公司目前XBOX业务的发展方向，没有什么要改变的。”

　　其实早在今年2月份Nadella上任的时候，他就告诉员工：“当人们取得伟大成功的时候，总是会渴望更大的成功。我们这个行业太喜新厌旧了。”言下之意是他不希望微软发展的太快，将已有的东西保护好、发展好才是关键。

Xbox Live Games with Gold for June Revealed
XBOX Live金会员6月免费游戏 多款名作登场

June Games with Gold: Five Great Games for Xbox One and Xbox 360

With June officially kicking off soon, Xbox Live Gold members are especially prosperous with a total of five free games on Xbox One and Xbox 360. As Head of Xbox Phil Spencer recently announced, June’s system update will debut Games with Gold on Xbox One, with two great games – “Max: The Curse of Brotherhood” and “Halo: Spartan Assault.” And on Xbox 360, members will receive “Dark Souls,” “Charlie Murder” and the bonus game “Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition.” No matter what, you're in for a good time so make sure you get in on the action!

　　日前微软公司公开了6月专门针对XBOX Live金会员的“Games with Gold”的游戏名单，而本次所推出的游戏共有5款，其中包含XBOX 360和XBOX One平台的名作。拥有金会员资格的玩家有机会免费玩到这些作品，而具体游戏名单如下：

• Max: The Curse of Brotherhood (Xbox One, $14.99)

Coming in June (specific dates coming soon) is Press Play’s beautiful side-scrolling platformer Max: The Curse of Brotherhood. As Max, you’ll need to rescue your little brother from the clutches of a cartoonish villain named Mustacho. Along the way, you’ll solve challenging elemental puzzles and platform your way through the environment with the help of your trusty magic marker.

• Halo: Spartan Assault (Xbox One, $9.99)

Also available in June is Halo: Spartan Assault, a new chapter within the award-winning “Halo” universe set between “Halo 3” and “Halo 4.” Join Commander Sarah Palmer and Spartan Davis in training simulations aboard the UNSC Infinity to fight a campaign against Covenant forces, or join in online Co-op battle against the Flood.

• Dark Souls (Xbox 360, $19.99)

Available June 1-15, Dark Souls, is perhaps most famous for its difficulty, but it is also, without question, among the greatest and most awe-inspiring games of its generation. Elegant in design, challenging in presentation and more than a little mysterious, "Dark Souls" will take you on a tour de force of what action-role-playing can (and should) be about. If you ever wanted to jump into one of this generation's most beloved franchises, now's the perfect time.

• Charlie Murder (Xbox 360, $9.999)

Available June 16-30, we have Charlie Murder, a classic, side-scrolling beat-'em-up in which you take on the role of the title character or one of his stalwart band mates, as they try to save the world from an impending zombie apocalypse. And yes, they will also rock out quite a bit at the same time. A cartoon-like aesthetic, non-stop action and a dash of dark humor combine to make "Charlie Murder" fun for solo or up to four-player cooperative head-bashing.

• Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition (Xbox 360, $29.99)

Finally, we've got the one-year Games with Gold anniversary bonus – Capcom’s celebrated one-on-one fighting game Super Street Fighter IV: Arcade Edition, available June 16-30. Yes, it’s “Street Fighter” and chances are you’ve probably played it, in some form or another, at least once in your life. And if not, you’re missing out on perhaps the most well-known and tightly balanced fighting game franchise ever made. This upgrade to the original “Street Fighter IV” brings the playable roster up to a whopping 39 characters, and features a decked-out online tournament mode, a team battle mode for up to eight players, and the option to save and share replays of your best (or worst) matches.

微软表示将继续支持X360 将会持续推出新内容

　　尽管XBOX One已经正式发售，不过这并不意味着微软就会立刻放弃XBOX 360平台。日前XBOX部门的新总裁菲尔·斯宾塞就透露他们将会继续支持XBOX 360，并为此推出新内容。

　　近日在接受国外媒体的采访时，菲尔·斯宾塞表示在XBOX 360的生命周期结束之前该主机还会卖出很多台，因此他们有义务为此推出新内容。

　　“如果你一年半前买了XBOX 360，我认为我们对此有义务。当人们买了给予了我们100多英镑的承诺的时候，我想要确保为他们提供新内容。”

　　斯宾塞认为投资XBOX One确实非常重要，但为此而忽略了拥有优秀装机量的本世代主机是非常不明智的行为，而且现在第三方也依然在支持XBOX 360。他表示大多数第三方厂商会在数年内同时支持两个世代的主机，毕竟本世代主机用于庞大的装机量，他们在这一平台推出新内容的话会有很多玩家愿意买。
