Microsoft Entertainment & Devices Division has announced that its gaming system Xbox 360 will make its debut in the Indian market in the pre-Diwali season this year.

The company said the Xbox 360 system will come fully-loaded with a 20GB detachable Xbox 360 Hard Drive for storing music, video, and games; an Xbox 360 Wireless Controller; an Xbox 360 Media Remote control; a component HD-AV Cable for connecting to component and composite television inputs; an Ethernet cable; and batteries.

Mohit Anand, country manager, Microsoft Entertainment and Devices Division, India, said, "The timing for the launch of Xbox 360 couldn't have been better. The Indian gaming community is currently at an inflection point, and is poised to experience exponential growth in the coming few years, as digital experiences emerge as a defining norm in collaborative entertainment. The Xbox 360 will serve to be a catalyst to fuel this growth, and expose Indian gamers to next generation gaming experiences."
