HD-DVD Confirmed For Xbox 360

"Building on Xbox 360 leadership in high-definition experiences, the company announced plans to deliver a new Xbox 360 external HD DVD drive in 2006. The new drive will offer millions of Xbox 360 owners the ability to easily enjoy HD DVD movies and will provide consumers with even more choices for experiencing high-definition content, in either physical or digital form."

Looks like Microsoft is going for the best of both worlds. Be the first out of the box for the next gen console and come back later and add HD DVD capability so it will still compete with the PS3. While this is going to be an external drive, it will also be interesting to see if they release a retooled 360 that has it built-in.
