Microsoft Responds to President Obama's Xbox Comment
by Eric Bush
Following the comments made by President Barack Obama at the N.A.A.C.P. convention, where he recommended parents to put away the Xbox to limit children's video game time, Microsoft provided the following statement to The Wall Street Journal.
"We agree with President Obama that it’s a time for families to work together so that kids use media in ways that are safe, healthy and balanced. Xbox 360 is the only console gaming system that has a timer feature allowing parents to set time limits for their kids, as well as parent controls to enable parents to set limits on what their kids are playing and watching."
