The Big Move
Some of you may have heard that today is our team's last day on the Millennium campus. I've been here for 7 years, Major for 5 1/2 or so. The new campus, Studios West (or Robbieland, as I like to call it after our illustrious President Robbie Bach) is swanky and more efficient, has better food and more plentiful parking. But we're more than a little bit sad to leave behind the buildings that have witnessed the history of Xbox, Xbox LIVE, and Xbox 360. How many millions --billions?!-- of lines of code were written here? These hallways once reverberated with the giddy sounds of Re-Volt when we first got LIVE going internally. Here we launched an online gaming service that now has over 17 MILLION customers, and 2 game consoles that have changed the way many people think about entertainment.
I could go on and on about all the great games, accessories, LIVE features, videos, podcasts, afterhours deathmatches, Nerf battles, impromptu keggers, and miletones, but I won't.
I'll be documenting the move over the course of the day...yet another way to procrastinate packing, Here's the first video: I call it "Before" ie, I haven't started packing yet and I have 7 hours to get my act together!
