MS "looking at" expanding friends list (CVG 12/1/09)

The pleas have lasted three years, but it looks like Microsoft could finally be taking notice and moving to increase Xbox Live's 100-user friend cap.

Speaking to Joystiq, Microsoft's group product manager Aaron Greenberg revealed that while platform holder's not quite ready to make a firm commitment, it's finally "looking at" boosting the cap.

"I can't commit to when that will happen, but that is something we want to do," he said. "It's definitely something we're looking at expanding and, as this social network grows, we've absolutely heard the pleas for that. It's on the list."
