Your a tool, learn how to read a financial report and educate yourself on how the industry works so you can stop pointing fingers about topics you know absolutely nothing about.
I have three kids and while we all game, there is no way in hell I would buy a Kinect so they could play with an animal on TV when they have real pets to play with. People buying something so they can park their kids in front of it to keep them occupied is ridiculous. My kids watch cartoons because I watch cartoons with them and engage them while they watch whatever is on. Kinectimals isn't a game, it's an exotic pet simulator, and any parent that uses this as a driving decision to bu...
Yeah this guy is no match for the brains of Dr. Marks, and one can only imagine what that man is thinking up in his brain right now.
This is the first Mortal Kombat I have looked forward to in over a decade, and it looks to be shaping up to be very nice indeed.
I like how people keep saying that next years games are going to be delayed into 2012 or later and don't realize that a game can't be delayed if it doesn't have a release date. Wow, LBP2 got delayed to January and GT5 got delayed for probably a couple of weeks past it's intended release date, big deal. Insomniac, Naughty Dog, Guerilla Games, and Sucker Punch have released all of their games on time with one game out of the bunch being delayes by a couple of weeks at most. Find...
@lelo Yeah because that's totally factual, sure, whatever you say. The only games that were delayed this year and into next was LBP2. Gran Turismo 5 was delayed at the least minute but will likely be out before the and of the year. Every game that came out in 2009 hit it's release date as scheduled as most PS3 exclusives tend to do and if they do get delayedit isn't for very long, a couple of weeks tops, so not only is what you said false, there is no logic to it whatsoever.
You are an idiot. All of the console makers reports shipped numbers because that's how they track internal sales data, NPD, Media Create, and Chart Track do sell through numbers. Do you want to know why they do this?
RETAILERS HAVE TO PURCHASE THE CONSOLES FROM SONY/MS/NINTENDO TO SELL THEM THAT'S WHY THEY REPORT SHIPPED NUMBERS!
That's how their money is made, peripherals, accessories, etc, it's all the same. The groups that track sell-...
The title is incredibly misleading and need to be changed, camera modules for Kinect is not the same as a whole Kinect camera. Did anybody that approved this actually read the article!?
Would have been fine if he hadn't said better than Mario Kart and that comment will pretty much cost him his credibility, as much as writing for Dtoid.
The success of Kinect hinges on a lot of different factors and the main one is whether or not people will have the space to play it. Most of Asia is automaticaly excluded from it being successful and any other city where apartments don't really have a lot of room unless you take out al of the furniture. Kinect will sell gangbusters in the US and UK for the first three months and then experience an extremely high rate of returns due to buyers remorse because people simply do not have the s...
I really liked the frst one and I don't trust GI's reviews anyway because most of the time they are way off base so I will still be getting this on Tuesday.
Talk about hideous, I would rather look at Greenberg and Mattrick's love child than this guy.
I hope Germans have really big living rooms to play in.
The first part of your post is applicable to just about everything that is on this site, including news about Amazon Germany selling out of Kinect pre-orders and it's somehow indicative of the huge success of Kinect.
I don't doubt that Kinect will sell millions but sales will be on par with Move, maybe a little more but nothing like the way you Kinect lovers seem to want to illustrate. With the ad budget they put behind it it had better sell well because it's p...
First, the game never should have released next to Castlevania. Second, it should have come out in te winter or summer when there aren't tons of great games with names that people buy all around it. Third, Ninja Theory should keep their mouths shut because if they didn't talk like douchey, uppity assholes who think they make the greatest games in the world that blame their failures on everyone but themselves they may have more goodwill with gamers.
If this game fai...
If you took away the phone on the Iphone that would drastically reduce the number of people 'gaming' on them. If you took the apps and other aspects away from the Ipod Touch, you would get the same result. Gaming on Apple prodcuts is secondary at best and not even close to a promary reason that 99% of people buy the product for. Nintendo and Sony don't have anything to worry about until Apple releases a dedicated gaming device and even then I owuld be skeptical of it's long te...
Bethsead can keep their broken POS until they fix most of the issues with the game. Will anything they release ever be released and not be buggy as shit!?
I like how people think these women don't go crazy for the free stuff Oprah gives away all the time. It doesn't matter what was on that stage those women would have went ballistic for it just like they always do.
If reviews don't drop in the next week or so then there is a serious problem and they are trying to keep the public from it. If it's as great as they claim they should be shipping truckloads of these things to journalists, bloggers, anybody that can give them good press.
I don't understand the point of her post because those numbers were released two weeks ago and they have since started replenishing retail so the actual number is much higher. She should have made it a games post and waited two weeks when the next set of numbers come in, and use the global total instead of North America.
Also, to clear up the confusion (even though that won't happen) here's how it works:
Nintendo and Sony report shipped numbe...
