The kinect device is sold out on amazon in the U.S.i had to pre-order the 250 gig bundle.i got a feeling this thing is gonna sell like craazy!
This law should be struck down for all time.give them an inch and they,ll take it all.it,s the parents decision to decide what is appropriate for there children not the government.all media hinges on this landmark case.lets not stand on the side line and be silent,lets get in the game and save the industry that we love and cherrish.
MS is expanding the XBL community with kinect.casual gamers are looking for somthing new so kinect will be wating for them.if they accept kinect then MS will be rolling in the money.i,m getting mine on day one and i can,t wait.i will welcome them to XBL with open arms.
1st and formost these companies are out to make money.new IP,s are fine,but as long as the halo,s and the gears generate revenue they will be around.as for MS killing its hardcore base is just nonsense.i said before and i,ll say it again,MS is expanding its XBL community with kinect.XBL is an amusment park with many rides for everyone.if the casual crowd buys kinect by the millions i,m all for it and i will welcome them with open arms.
This article and many like is full of misinformation.MS is not abandoning its hardcore base,but expanding its XBL gamer community as a whole.there will be halos,gears of war,fable,COD,s and sports games.to assume MS to just abandoned its base is just BS!these articles are full of fail.XBL raked in a billion $,s in 2009,what makes any of you think MS would just give up that cash cow?

You have to spend money to make money.500 million is a drop in the bucket for MS.ADVERTISING IS A COMPANYS BEST FRIEND
THERS,S A MISCONCEPTION THAT MICROSOFT IS ABANDONING IT,S HARD CORE BASE,opps sorry for that caps.they are including a new addition to the XBL family.i will welcome them with open arms.
Oprah,s show is very influential.the power of televsion is a powerful tool in the united states.
Kinect is aimed at the casual crowd not hardcore.the casual crowd outnumbers the hardcore this generation,just look at how many wii,s were sold.if this thing sells a million on day one,mission accomplished.we must not forget about the kinect bundle this holiday season.marketing is a companys best friend.
Have you gamed on XBL? if so what dont you like about XBL besides the price?
It would be nice to pick up a discount card on amazon or ebay before the new price takes effect.most folks spend more money on booze,sex,drugs,fast food and strip clubs.dont forget gamers buy alot on content on XBL.no one forces gamers to pay for XBL,the choice is yours.
wait for the final NPD report for north america
....sales fuel the industry and keeps it strong.the more is sells on day one the better.
....gives you a discount on the next game you purchase,so start giving amazon a try.remember that in order for the gaming industry thrive we must buy games.i understand that we are in a recession and must find other means to buy games.thats why i choose amazon.
Can,t wait for the NPD report,then we wil see how much halo reach did for the industry
There are 2 fronts that are being fought right now,consols sales and online.
How did this piece of trash get approved? another sad day for N4G when crap articles trumps real gaming news.ok gamers which is more important these kind of stories or the upcoming supreme court case about the california gaming law?
Joining ps+ just to get into betas is not a wise purchase.what i,m keeping my eye on is sony using betas to lure gamers into buying PS+.most of the betas i played were free no stings attached.i have both consoles and i,m not jumping on PS+.$50 a yr just to rent games and get into betas is not a sell for me
but sales are the life blood of the industry.if games dont sell,the industry will die.quality is a good thing but the masses dictate how the industry flows.does casuals come to mind?
