The XBOX division of Microsoft has issued a statement regarding HD DVD and their take on the latest stormy days for the format.

Their Insider Blog writes:
We do not believe the recent reports about HD DVD will have any material impact on the Xbox 360 platform or our position in the marketplace. As we´ve long stated, we believe it is games that sell consoles and Xbox 360 continues to have the largest next-gen games library with the most exclusives and best selling games in the industry. We will wait until we hear from Toshiba before announcing any specific plans around the Xbox 360 HD DVD player. HD DVD is one of the several ways we offer a high definition experience to consumers and we will continue to give consumers the choice to enjoy digital distribution of high definition movies and TV shows directly to their living room along with playback of the DVD movies they already own.

There is already rumors flying around Digg today about Microsoft making a Blu-Ray attachment. Guess we'll just have to wait and see. From the beginning it seemed as though Microsoft didn't want to get in the middle of this format war which apparently was a good choice as the death of HD DVD won't affect the Xbox in the slightest.
