MICROSOFT OFFERS FREE 3D GAMES FOR ZUNE HD

The Zune HD is a portable media player from Microsoft. It was released on September 15, 2009. The device is available in 16GB and 32GB capacities.

The Zune HD has a touchscreen interface for navigation. The machine is powered by a NVIDIA Tegra processor. The optional HDMI Zune dock feature allows content to be transferred on to a high definition television. Otherwise, you can watch videos on the player’s OLED display.

The device offers excellent battery life. Audio quality is good, so it its ability to handle HD video. On the flip side, the screen is small. It is good for playing 16:9 videos, but try playing 4:3 videos, and you will only get postage stamp-sized images. Another problem is that very few software downloads are available in the Zune market place at the moment. But Microsoft, it seems, is keen on remedying this issue. The company recently released new firmware for the Zune HD. And the Zune 4.3 firmware brings in some cool features including support for 3D games. Besides this, Microsoft has made 6 new applications including some 3D games available in the Zune marketplace. All of these applications can be downloaded free.
