Apparently it scored a spot on Oprah........the #1 casual television show  Just saying........this launch will make Move's launch seem like the NGage launch  _________________ It is more then possible to combine fanboyism with logic and reason.

Yes that is very true. Sony will eventually kick Microsoft's ass in terms of exclusives, I reckon. (not library size, just the amount they get per year) |

in all fairness, more exclusives in no way means more success......merely fanboy bragging rights_________________ It is more then possible to combine fanboyism with logic and reason.

Of course. I'm just saying, though, that M$ really needs more studios or to make the studios they have make more games. I mean, $500 million on Kinect advertising?! I would rather they spent some of that on a new IP. I don't care how much Kinect sells... to me all that is is fanboy bragging rights. In fact, sales-related stuff is more like fanboy bragging rights in my opinion. More exclusives = more games. I'd rather have more games than have my system sell more than another. |
