Xbox 360 to launch in India before Diwali

DiwaliDiwali, known more commonly as the "Festival of Lights," is a celebration of hope, of the victory of good over evil. Diwali is also a time to rekindle relationships with loved ones. But this year, on October 21, when Diwali begins, Microsoft is hoping that Hindus, Jains, and Sikhs alike, will spend time during the 5-day celebration to invest in an Xbox 360.

Microsoft is poised to grab hold of India's soon-to-boom gaming market, announcing that Xbox 360 will launch before the end of October. Two SKUs will be offered for retail, including the 'Xbox 360 Core System,' bundled with a "leading title" (19,990 rupees; about $430), and the 'Xbox 360 System,' featuring a 20 GB HDD, wireless controller, media remote, component HD-AV cable, Ethernet cable, and batteries (23,990 rupees; about $515).
