Hes saying it was Microsofts grand scheme to release faulty hardware a year early to beat sony to the punch, then continue to sell their consoles at a slower rate than the more expensive PS3's until the PS3 caught up 4-5 years later, to where this generation of consoles would be done, and i'd imagine both the PS3 and the Xbox360 would stop selling in his world? I'm not quite sure...

"4-5 years has basically the entire generation for a console." The PS2 says Hi? Since its still selling better than the Xbox1 and the 360 in regions.
We have all sources claiming that they are going to hunker down on this generation of hardware. Luckily due to the Xbox community, and their low gametechnology standards, things like the Unreal engine and Bungies engine dont' require a hardware upgrade to run subHD games in stereo sound with out-dated HDMI & DV...
I don't care about promotion?? I swear to god you bots aren't even gamers at this point. And Microsoft had a Xbox1 remember? They canceled it? Remember. See the PS2. Its still out-selling the 360 ytd..it had a head start.
Since i'm a gamer, I care about games & hardware quality. Which sony delivers on nonstop. Free online as well... What I laugh at, is the notion of Microsoft "dominating' with a 3 million hardware units sold lead ahead of sony -- and ...
I mean... come on folks.. microsoft will never be #1 like sony was, or like nintendo is. They measure their success in months...
That they pay half a billion dollars to buy.
They'd be dominating, if it was on an equal playing field.. ie.. minus half a billion and squashing reviews/suing people with negative opinions etc..wouldn't they?
Simple question is why can't microsoft dominate like Nintendo & Sony have?
forza owners do

The only substitute for GT quality is GT5prologue at the moment. Nothing else offers the scale of GT/16 cars online + carporn.
I dont know... its just such an amazing title. Its probably 10 dollars at this point at gamestop.
I can't see ever missing out on a good game -- due to trophies?
#1, Alan wake was announced when? Exactly... and it was reduced to non-sandbox dlc floppetry...
#2, Too human?
#3, Warhounds
#4, Huxley..'ZOMG 100 vs 100' - themart@xboxkings.
Do i need to go on?

All the GT5 smack talk needs to stop considering these games have all been part of the 360's "lineup"

they want their excuse back.
For them to be sold out at the launch event.. like everyone elses launch events.
Voice1: So Move, our peripheral control launched and its sold over 3 million units.
Voice2. Great, so what new exclusive titles do we have coming out for next year...
[5 minutes later, took a while to list all of them]
Voice1. ....And the last guardian.
Voice2. So how many ps3's have we sold without half a billion in advertising & a head start?
Voice1. (laughter) Like 40 million or so.
Voice2. (laugher)

How can you say its impressive when Microsoft's spent half a billion dollars on making sure the device sells while threatening lawsuits for negative press(destructoid), and held off reviews(everyone). Then made the statement to ignore reviews of the device, even though they don't ignore IGN when it comes time to put a quote on a box. With the excuse of dumb soccer moms not being aware of researching products outside of Oprah & Ellen.
Thats what staggers me about t...
No one in their right mind would. Sony spends that $ on exclusives & buying studios, hardware quality, free online, etc. It should read they are spending 14million pounds on advertising.. and thats about it. We are talking about peripherals here...
I'm sure the 14 million for this was already part of the business plan, not just made up now. Sony already said they'd never outspend microsoft when it comes to advertising.
yes but the POTENTIAL my dear boy!! That alone is worth $150.00!!! Imagine what you COULD be playing. Since none of the launch titles show anything...

Thanks for playing.
PS3 fans complain when sites like Edge/Eurogamer/GamesRadar, flop the games to bring down the metacritic score when all other sites are praising the game. You can quantify PS3 bias easily. Xbox fans complaining about bias would be a site to be seen.

Can you imagine the reaction you would have gotten 5 years ago from Xbox owners if they knew five years from now Microsoft's big holiday console event was eye toy style motion controls, Bungie out of Microsoft and only 3 first party studios.
I wish I could give you 10000 bubbles. I never thought the day would be here to where bots are going ga-ga over an ADD-ON to a console... which doesn't play halo.

Whether or not you prefer more precise aiming, is up to you. But the option is there.. You can also see the Socom Demos.
Kinect's launching a whole new 'brand' of games basically ignoring the brand of games that were created for the core 360 audience. The games will always be on rails & Wii experiences due to the simplicity of using your body as a controller. You can only do so much in so many known gaming genres with a webcam.
Of course, 36...
You can do headtracking with any webcam. Like the original Xbox360 one would do the trick..
GT5's introducing Headtracking to consoles, so hopefully soon others will follow suit. Its the only way to play games. There just hasn't been the demand from console owners who struggle with the concept.
A horror game would be amazing with this. And alan wake with headtracking & the ability to manipulate the flashlight with your own hand would be ideal.
