The industry may be envious of the Wii's popularity with the non-gamer market, but Moore says that he has nothing to envy about Sony's current offering. "The PS3, I really don't know what I would look at there that we're really missing," said Moore, while pointing out that he's very confident in Xbox 360's software portfolio and Xbox Live service. "The online service, [Sony's] still trying to get it up to speed and there's nothing really there that I can really point to that I wish we had. You know, certainly the price point of the PS3 isn't something that I want to emulate."
Microsoft is enjoying Xbox solid success most of its territories, and Moore is not anticipating any change in leadership a year from now. "Obviously we have the intent to grow the lead we have. The attach rate is very important as well and making sure people are buying lots of games for their console. The rate of 5.1 here in America is very, very healthy," he said "I think if we sat here a year from now we'd be able to say, we took advantage of the critical mass we got, there are more games being made than ever for the Xbox 360."
A brutal reset, a smarter story, and a return to what made it great—Mortal Kombat (2011) revived the series.
Underrated comment. I used to hate that game so much that any time my siblings asked me to play it, I just picked Hom and shut myself down mid-match.
15 years went by so fast. I remember playing through the story mode at launch.
The name "Hewson" carries a special weight for anyone who grew up during the golden age of British computing. As the son of Andrew Hewson—the man behind legendary publisher Hewson Consultants—Rob Hewson didn't just grow up playing video games; he learned to spell his name from their title screens. However, Rob didn't just rest on his family's 8-bit laurels. From leading major LEGO franchises at TT Games to tackling the high-stakes world of technical porting at Huey Games, Rob has carved out a unique path in an ever-evolving industry. In this candid interview Rob to discussed the burden and beauty of a family legacy, the technical "scar tissue" left by the ambitious Hydrophobia, and why porting a masterpiece like Inscryption to consoles is far more than a simple copy-paste job.
To celebrate Tomb Raider: Legend's 20th anniversary, the official channels have shared an early in-development gameplay demo.
Microsoft is determined to take over something. You know whats gonna come next right?
i think they are trying and they should continue to push for japanese market........its important for them because japanese market is not just about the japanese people who bought the system its also about the japanese developer support which is important all around
Some cool games and they should get some fans.
frankly i don't really give a damn how microsoft does in japan. i don't live in japan or own microsoft stock. i also happen to despise "japanese" style video games. spiky haired kid saving the world from impending doom, cooking simulators, dating games, not my style. i prefer western style shooters and racing/sports games. that is the only reason i prefer x360 over ps3. well that and live, but that's a given. then again i am american, so it only makes sense....
I'm not a huge fan of japanese games, but some are pretty good.
just keep putting out the games they want, and they will come.
