Announced last fall, HBO GO is just about ready for its Xbox 360 closeup. I still find HBO GO to be one of the most compelling online streaming services, yet cord cutters will remain disappointed as access requires an old school HBO subscription via one’s satellite or cable provider. Further, Comcast and DirecTV customers may continue to be left out. Not to mention this particular implementation will also require a Xbox Live Gold membership ($40-$60/year). But if you happen to be one of the lucky ones, HBO GO offers every episode of every modern original series (True Blood, The Wire, Boardwalk Empire, etc,) in addition to select movies on demand. Engadget reports the Xbox 360 HBO GO channel will launch April 1st, although Tech of the Hub has word the 720p content could show up even sooner.
