MS did a lot of things wrong, so many that it's laughable actually, from the Xbox 1 failure, to the RROD debacle, and Yahoo bid, Zune failure, bing, Vista fiasco... And now the 360 itself is outsold even in its own territory (NA) by a more expensive competitor (PS3).
How Steve Ballmer can STILL be in charge after all those mistakes puzzles me. Not only me, but a lot of people in the business according to recent articles. The only thing saving Ballmer is his relations with Bill Ga...
360 had games this year, just not good exclusives. Great exclusives were all on PS3. Since you can also play the multiplatform games on your PS3, you actually need only one console nowadays...
Congrats KZ2 for a well deserved award. I like the irony too : the only thing the 360 had left was its shooters and its online and now Killzone 2 beat the 360 games on their own territory.
@tawak : you mean the way 360 was stabbed by the PS3 when we got improved versions of ninja gaiden 2, tales of vesperia, bioshock, oblivion or star ocean, while they were supposed to be 360 exclusives ?
They have zero standard, they're just biased. No PS3 exclusive ever got more than 8, yet crappy shooters like Halo 27 : generic ODST got 9 or 10. In my mind, MGS4 deserves more 10 than 7, but hey it's on PS3.
