No Internet Browser For Xbox 360

Bad news, Xbox fans. You’re never going to be able to surf the ‘Net with your Xbox. You’ll have to buy a Wii or a PS3 to satisfy that urge.

In an interview with Edge magazine, Xbox Product Director Aaron Greenberg confirmed the Xbox will never have internet browsing functionality.

“We really believe that the web browsing experience on TV is a poor one, and the real magic is to take those web experiences and optimise them for the living room,” said Greenberg. “That’s what we did with Netflix. So, sure, you can go on the PS3 and go to Facebook and and try to navigate, but it’s an absolute nightmare.”

Whether you agree with Greenberg’s assertion, Microsoft is going to create other applications, like Twitter and Facebook, to access parts of the web.
