'If you want to really make gamers serious about kinect, you need to do it more seriously... those sales you got on black friday and all that are similar to the wii. It got the casual market interested... but soon is quickly forgotten. '
LOL..listen to yourself try to dismiss the success of Kinect so it fits into your small view of the device.
I said 1 million STAND-ALONE Kinects were sold in 24 hours. That means EXISTING 360 owners bought Kinect. Tha...
wrong place
'Microsoft
-GET THE F***ING HINT THAT PEOPLE HATE KINECT PRESENTATIONS
- Add new titles for your owners to enjoy'
Translation..Kinect HATERS hate Kinect presentations.
Nintendo gets no flack for supporting Wii and 3DS and Wii-U
Sony gets no flack for supporting PS3, Vita, and Move
But Micrsoft gets flack for simply supporting Xbox 360 and Kinect?
IMO it comes off as hypocrisy and mak...
@ Lucretia
'xbox live? I wanna play games!!!! whats the point of live if it has no games and is just a service'
So please enlighten us what other system has sooo many more games than thse that are on Xbox Live right now?
What are you playing anywhere else right now that would make someone come close to pretending that Live has no games on it to play.

'He is most certainly stating, in those words, that what was shown last year did not leave him impressed both on a hardware and software side.'
LOL..so wait now your adding software to the mix? Your completely reaching at this point.,
Nintendo didnt show ANY specs or official software at all. So how is it possible that he is 'critical' of any of it.
It's simple..read the e-mail that he sent to Geof...

He laid down a few thoughts on some of what he was expecting for E3 and the exact quote was..
'Nintendo's slightly lack lustre Wii U is going to have to blow us away with better specs and great 1st party line up.'
He's not exclaiming to the the press 'I AM NOT IMPRESSED By WII-U'
He simply expressing what seemed like an overall consensus from the gaming and mainstream press after Nintendo debuted Wii-U at last year'...
Without even reading..
#1 Arguably the best development team ever assembled
#2 Three years of development time
#3 A Blank check from Micrsoft..
Can't wait..

Definately an Xbox Live phenomenon..
Was at a friends house and watched them play for an hour..can't wait to get a chance to download this.

Was the first to preorder this earlier today at my fave local Gamestop..
I'll take the specialization, the books, the 3 DLC packs etc..for 30 extra
As oppoosed to spending 150 dollars like I have for the same material and a statue.
But at the end of the day if they end up releasing another addition with statue..I'm there too.

'It hasn't stopped one core game because they aren't interested anymore in the first place'
LMAO @ not being able to name ONE core game that you supposedly played when you owned the mythical three 360 that you now couldnt play after Kinects arrival.
First it's they abandoned the core then it's 'they never were core'?
If that is true then you never were a core 360 gamer, so if that...
LMAO @ taking a 'significant' share..
EA 'ships' 15 million of BF3..
Call of Duty: MW3 sold almost 14 million for the 360 alone..can you imagine what the Modern Warfare 'shipped' numbers look like alone?

'core gamers who like me used to own a 360 (3 in fact) but got fed up with Microsofts new direction. If they started this gen pumping out casual software that would have been cool, but alienating a ton of your original fanbase half way through the cycle is not.'
This is the most laughable argument that has come out since Kinect arrived. I'm a TRUE core 360 gamer, I own well over a 100 360 ganes alone and have been an Xbox fan since the launch of the original.
That's cool..it sounds similiar to the device that is used with EA Active 2.0.
Wii Fit was a worldwide phenom for Nintendo and was originally announced at E3..that thing went in to sell a billion Wiis and Wii fit boards.
Ubisofts Fitness Evolved and the sequel for Kinect are hands down the best exercise games in the history of consoles.
Kinect has it's limitations with some things but it is absolutely perfect and kills the motion c...

Similiar to Halo 2 last gen,,millions couldnt wait to finish the fight. The smartest move Micrsoft ever did was start a brand new trilogy and out it in the hands of the amazing team that was assembled for 343 studios.
The other big hooks will be Xbox Live..no way in hades wil I give up all I worked for the entire 6-7 years just to start all over. People are going to want thier friends list in tact as well.
Kind of strange to have a list of the the Top 5 to look out for and 2 were already released.
I disagree with the author's contention that Kinect Sports Golf 'wasn't good'. In fact, IMO the complete opposite was true, K. Sports golf is the funnest motion control golf game on the market.
I own Tiger 13, but it's not better than K. Sports Season two.
As for the most notable Kinect releases it would be..

Millions of Halo fans will buy Halo 4 day one and one week later Millions will buy Black Ops 2.
Both will dominate Xbox Live as number one and two most played through the first quarter of 2013.
Halo and Call of Duty are easily the two most popular franchises for hardcore 360 fans, they are not actually competing as both will see massive massive success.
I feel bad for the rest of the software releasing the rest of November and December thoug...

You can't take every piece of Kinect criticism and shove your fingers in your ears with "It's....it's not for you, then!"
And you have to take off the fan goggles and stop pretending I wrote...OMG OMG KINECT IS THE GREATEST..INSERT FANBOY LOVE FOR KINECT..

'It's not stealthy or trolling'
The guy wrote that there was lots of stealthy MS bashing and well played trolls. Are you pretending that none of it exists because you went on what you call a 'rant'.
