Forums - Microsoft Discussion - Zune HD: Who will be buying?

Hello i just wanted to know if anyone else here was excited for the Zune HD. Personally im very excited about this product especially if the XBLA support is packed in. Playing XBLA games would be AWESOME! But as it stands now who else here besides me will be buying the ZUNE HD when it comes out this fall? Also movies to rent over the Xbox live store and and such. Assuming this device lives up to the hype (we will see at E3) then i will be buying this Day 1.

 



I mostly play RTS and Moba style games now adays as well as ALOT of benchmarking. I do play other games however such as the witcher 3 and Crysis 3, and recently Ashes of the Singularity. I love gaming on the cutting edge and refuse to accept any compromises. Proud member of the Glorious PC Gaming Master Race. Long Live SHIO!!!!

wait does it have games?



The Zune HD will focus on music, not a super device

I do need something to replace my buggy ipod and since i don't have a laptop or smart phone w/ data plan, I'll highly consider this model so I can browse the net when needed



I'm perfectly happy with my 2nd generation Zunes. I'll pass on the Zune HD.

All Zunes have games and they are all free. It's difficult to program for the current Zunes because they are not powerful enough since they weren't made for gaming, but the Zune HD should hopefully be powerful enough so more people can make games using XNA.

you're confusing me. if it has gaming capabilities then i will probably pick it up. if it only has music than i may pick it up. depending on the price.



Won't be getting a Zune or iPhone ever >_>
