"but said his first stock sale in seven years should not be taken as a lack of confidence in the world's largest software firm"

Even then, it's too much of a damn coincidence that he does it around the same time at the release of the new product. A 1.3 billion sale is no laughing matter, nor is "a small subject".

"...
I guess those who prefer ACCURACY (and can actually tell when something is not) have a higher standard than those who make claims about "skill".."

Well judging by the disagrees flowing around, it seems a lot of people have the elitist mindset going on when reading articles on here.

"No Skills = Complain about the control, simple as that."

That's brick-wall thinking right there for you....

Controls can make or break a game just as much as story, and other things.

"The data clearly shows that the kinect is selling well in it's first few days. The fact that you saw a bunch of kinects has no bearing on cold hard facts. "

I'm going to contest this, but data can be shaped in ANY form to make it look positive. TECHNICALLY the Kinects at the store I manage are sold out, but that's because they're all reserved, and so far not many came by to pick them up.

Plus on the other side, you don't even k...

Yea I liked the depth they took with it. It's a shame though that there's like 2x the bugs/glitches as well, which really kills the mood at times. Had the game crash on me a lot of times >_<

I'm gonna watch you collapse, and then take the game myself. :p

There's a pacifist ending basically in the game. You can get through it without killing anyone. You just have to have patience, and the right skill set.

I'm not surprised to be honest.

The game is built so that you can either not kill a single thing with the skills you set up, or you can decimate everything. From the looks of things, he took the complete neutral route, in which you get every faction on their good side. IIRC one of the endings allows you to basically talk your way out of it.

In fact, here's a quote from the user that did the no-kill run:

" Doing a pacifist run i...

Yea that disturbs me as well. I tell people if they want to play online with the Slim, just go ahead and get the 250gb. The 4gb version of the console is a joke imo. -_-

"...
i thought it was about the games? i wonder if playing sales is as fun as people say it is."

There's people on N4G that love to do that daily.

Also you're the first person I've seen with that many bubbles. XD
And here I thought Alpha had the most so far.

I wouldn't call it the same demographic. You guys keep forgetting that 500 million for marketing...it's not the same form of "demographic" as what a product targets towards. Kinect does not have the same form as iPad.

You are conflicting "demographic" with the term "fad".

"Nvm, your right, but it's not like they robbed you of anything...except maybe your excitement and 350 MB lol"

I want my excitement back! >:(

"Can't wait for him and all the piracy community to be found by Microsoft and banned."

Ok i'm gonna play the opposite side on this situation, but as much as wishful thinking that is, if they weren't all wiped out before, what makes you think they'll wipe them out now?

I mean they can't even keep up PC security updates well, so what makes you think the same will be done on console?

"lol, it has been hacked. Where have you been in the weeks of psjailbreak?"

You mean the fact that the future updates hammered down the wall, and they're using the games as a lock through to make sure they have to update. Have you heard any other news outside of jailbreak recently?

Stop with the duplicate stories.

was that people were denying these issues left and right on this site, when I had a connection one happen to me when trying to update.

Also, it's cute how I got 2 disagrees for even stating that I played the unit with substance, yet the guy up top has 12 yet not even backing up his facts.

"The content of the game has nothing to do with whether it's 'hardcore', or not"

"Now, a game that is about serial-killers and features lots of graphic content might be intended for a mature audience, but if the only mechanic available to interact with the game world is waving your arms in pre-determined ways to progress through a series of scripted sequences, then you're still looking at a causal experience."

I'm glad ...

how some of these comments are so childish:

"It never happened to me, so the problem never existed."

I had a connectivity issue occur to me. Did the same thing that was stated, which was to wait for a bit and try again. Just because YOU don't have an issue to happen doesn't mean it never exists.

" but for the rest of us gamers who don't mind change/evolution...well we're too busy moving forward."

Tell that to the vast amounts of customers in my region. They may look at Kinect, but the FIRST region of audiences that come to mind that they're getting it for is either:

-)Their Kids
-)Their Wife.
