UK set to get own event instead of X07, says Microsoft

To be held "before Christmas"

Following the news that this year's X0 event has been cancelled, a Microsoft spokesperson has told GamesIndustry.biz that the UK will get its own Xbox 360 event instead.

"X07 is not going ahead," the spokesperson confirmed.

"We're looking at doing something here in the UK. It will be from a UK point of view, not from a European point of view."

According to the spokesperson, the timing for the new UK event is "still to be confirmed". However, he did state that it is set to take place "before Christmas".

News of the X07 cancellation emerged yesterday in a Squad XP podcast. Xbox executive Aaron Greenberg stated, "There is not a real X07 this year, but I think that we will figure out some way to talk about 2008 some time at a different event or a different type of programme."

Microsoft has so far declined to comment on why the decision was taken to cancel X07.

One can hope...

the ignorance is strong in this one just cause they didnt talk about any 08 games at the press conference doesnt mean they dont have a line up fable 2, too human, halo war,alan wake etc.:roll:
