Lenovo had planned to launch its China-exclusive
eBox games console this month, but has decided to delay its release until sometime after February, a
report by ITworld says. The hardware, which is said to have integrated motion-tracking technology similar to Microsoft's
Kinect, is being held back for "improvements," according to the article.
The eBox is being built by Lenovo subsidiary Beijing Eedoo Technology to be a "family" device not reliant on high-end graphics. The company claims it will have 30 titles for launch, some from US and French developers. If one of them is Ubisoft and the game is
Fighters Uncaged, the eBox is sure to be a
hit.
