While Japanese gamers hit the streets this Saturday for the Xbox 360 launch (or not), the rest of the Asian Xbox markets will have to wait a few months longer. Microsoft has confirmed that the 360 will debut in South Korea on Feb. 24, and in Taiwan and Singapore on March 2. No word on a Chinese launch date yet, or if there will be two versions of the console for these markets.
Xbox 360 regional executive Alan Bowman said that Microsoft wants to make sure the 360 is available in all existing Xbox 1 markets within the first six months.
