Xbox Live Friends limit to be increased

Microsoft's Aaron Greenberg has confirmed there are plans to increase the number of Friends you can have on Xbox Live.

"I can't commit to when that will happen, but that is something we want to do," he told Joystiq.

"It's definitely something we're looking at expanding and, as this social network grows, we've absolutely heard the please for that. It's on the list."

As you'll know if you're massively popular, you can't have more than 100 people on your Friends list at present. According to Greenberg, the system was designed like that back in the old days of the original Xbox - but now Live should allow for a bit more flexibility. Eventually.
