Huh? If kinect sold 8million units which is what MS are reporting at $150 each, that would put total revenue at $1.2billion which is easily more than the marketing budget.. Of course that would not come close to covering R&D or the manufacturing costs but it still proves you're bad at maths..

Nah I think he's saying calm down because you imagine him violently typing that comment away while yelling the words into the screen!

In the days of Netscape everyone charged for web browsers. The ironic thing is everyone hated MS and accused them of trying to build a monopoly when they made IE free and included it with windows!

@ SWORDFISH

Don't you think that it is just a little unfair that Australians (and others) have to pay almost double for a new game?

New games in Aus usually have a RRP of $99 - $109. Now in the US it is usually $60 yes?

Well the current exchange rate at the moment is pretty much 1:1 which means we have to pay about $50 more!

How is this fair?

All i want is Killer Instinct 3 and Rallisport Challenge 3 then i'll be happy.

I don't know if you know because you don't seem that clever. But it is interesting to note that the 2 main Blu-Ray video codecs are VC-1 and MPEG-4 AVC. MS developed the VC-1 codec and they receive royalties from any Blu-Ray movies encoded using their VC-1 codec.

The idea behind the point system is that no matter what region you are in, everything costs the same in points. So what is 800 points in the US is 800 points in AUS and the UK etc.

It makes it easier for microsoft to put products up and also makes it easier for marketing a product internationally too.

I agree with KI3. Would also be great if a Rallisport Challenge 3 were to be announced!

Yeah, definitely can't argue about the repeating level design but I loved trying to get through all of the rooms where the grunts were sleeping without being noticed. That and the final warthog drive to escape the exploding ship was awesome!

Assault on the control room and The maw.

The 2 best levels in the whole franchise. :P

Well NGS2 was kinda empty in certain places when compared to NG2. There was a video that showed certain things like the max amount of enemies each version could handle on screen at once and NG2 beat NGS2.

The same thing for the colliseum scene in the werewolf castle. In NGS2 there are a few werewolves in the stadium watching, but in NG2 the stadium is packed so much you can't see the seats which adds a lot more atmosphere to the scene IMO.

Are you saying that Hondas aren't quality? They are a very reliable car...

Can't argue with WII sports but Windows over MAC is entirely preference with neither having a giant advantage over the other.

You have troubles reading? They are fan favourite maps from BC reworked for BC2. Since they are new to BC2, i consider that a map pack. Even if you don't there are still 2 more completely new maps in the pack also.

Besides, it's free so stop your bitching..

The game started to lag regardless of your router after one of the patches they sent out. It was a wide spread problem and im sure if you do a search you will find many people complaining about it.

It has since been fixed and is no longer a problem though :)

Come on... You've got to be smarter than this. You see there are countries that actually spell words in accordance with this thing we call 'The English language'. 'humor' is American English 'humour' is proper English, stop being ignorant.

I believe Frag was replying to the guy above him as he seemed to have some weird idea that he would get cancer from infrared light. He was just saying that, if you seriously think infrared will give you cancer then you should throw out your TV remotes etc as they are essentially the same thing infrared wise

Thats an interesting thing to think about actually.

Were cigarettes or even alcohol invented today would they be legal?

I don't think they would, do you?
