God D*** am I surly!!!!

I'm starting to notice something....

.. and it's about Kinect and Move, the new motion controls for PS3 and 360. Now it's all great and wonderful, sure, but... and here's what's starting to irk me... other than the nice, glossy HD paint, just how much of this stuff we're slated to see come out for these units couldn't be done for the Nintendo Wii? You know, the system that many developers just couldn't find the time(or skill, for that matter) to make decent games on. Now all of a sudden, they're finding that creative spark... they've got the idea that it CAN be done, it WILL be great, and we CAN do a good job making games for it. To sum it up... their support for Nintendo's console is mediocre at best... yet they're looking forward to making motion control games for a prehiperal... that doesn't even have a controller?

I guess what I'm trying to say is, where was all this creativity earlier?

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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
