Again, I wish to make this public.

To CaptainoCrush: Please refrain from changing the links on your older submissions in your attempts to block other users from submitting stories first. This has happened multiple times. For example, CaptainoCrush changed the links on his June 2nd 2012 Pre-Orders chart to the link for the June 9th 2012 Pre-Orders chart, so that, even if another user was the first to create and submit a submission for the new chart, that user would receive the "Story Exists" warning. This isn't fair to others and myself. I hope you acknowledge this and refrain from doing this practice in the future.

OT: Those are some pretty great Borderlands 2 numbers, glad to see the game doing so well. And Halo 4 really picked it up since E3.

I can't see Halo doing bad; but even it it did sell poorly, as long as they keep the story sharp and the gameplay good, I'd be proud to own it.

otherZinc5136d ago

Agreed!

Also, I've yet to pre-order my 3 copies (for co-op with my family). I'm holding out for a Legendary Announcement or a Halo 4 Console Announcement.

@otherZinc

3 copies for your family to play coop? What kind of family all play halo together? What country is this located in?

Can't you do coop with this super new amazing unheard of feature called Splitscreen?

Forza_is_King5136d ago

@ Ginsunuva

That seems pretty stupid. You then are reducing the screen of the TV to quarters, or thirds, or halves.

You are also not considering that MAYBE his family doesn't all live in the same home as him and that he is just buying a copy for each to play over XBL together...

OR

Maybe each of the other 2 family members have a TV and an Xbox in their room, so why play on 1 TV that reduces the size of the playing screen and miss out on all Halo's visual glory when they can each enjoy the game on separate TV's within the home?

Please use your head.

@ Forza:

I agree with ya; there may be circumstances that makes him have to get multiples, but he's blessed enough to provide for his family, so it's all good.

Besides, putting Halo on a split-screen is like putting the Mona Lisa on toilet paper. You have to take all of that goodness in at once like smoking a Gran Habano Corojo cigar and a swig of Henri IV Dudognon: if you don't cream your pants from the experience, it's because you've already creamed your pants from the expectation.

Should report them, it is against the rules.

Not looking good. Hopefully Asha Sharma is able to turn Phil’s disaster around.

To me it's still quite remarkable how they can cash-in 5.3bn in revenue in a single quarter, since their hardware is basically dead.

Jingsing68d ago

The stock mark is what makes Microsoft remarkable, They have convinced every institutional and retail investor to just keep piling money into them. Like many big tech giants they are just a big growing pyramid scheme. As long as people keep dropping money into ETF's that cover the market Microsoft will always be liquid. At the same time it is completely stifling innovation and competition. People need to start being more discreet in how they invest their money as it's killing the system.

Tanktopmaster9268d ago

Once they re-evaluate exclusive all will be fine….

S2Killinit68d ago

Riiiiight because people will just flock back to them for one or two games per year.

Jingsing68d ago

15+ years of bad performance is what they call irreparable in business. It is time for them to sell off the assets and get out of entertainment.

Tanktopmaster9268d ago

These declines are on the back of extra revenue received from releasing games like Forza horizon 5 on PlayStation. So I’m being sarcastic here when I said they should go back to exclusives. Killing off a revenue stream from Ps5 sales will only make things worse
