Should have done better. It's not doing bad but should have done better.
Sold to retailers or sold to customers doesn't matter. A sale is a sale. At some point in time the 360's that reatailers buy end up in someone's home. . What is really a feat here is how a system that is over 4 years old with no bluray, no free on line network, no browser got resurected back like it was it's debut. Amazing job microsoft.
I like the kinect but i will not pick one up due to space limitations. I do however enjoy going over to buddies every now and than when the girls feel like playing beach volleyball on kinect. It's fun to play and i love watching them girls jump for the spike. Far from a failure if you ask me but sales already told us that.
Sony asked for it so why sue now?? . It was like an invitation to challenge every hacker in the fu*cking planet when sony used to brag about how the ps3 would be unhackable this gen due to it's bluray, updates and what not. Well look at them f*cking goofs now in a panic trying to sue every hacker out there for hacking the ps3. Mission accomplished sony. They should be rewarding these guys not suing them. They brought the challenge to them in the first place. It was only a matter of ...
non fit because the MK universe is dull. The franchise took and sh*t and died after mortal kombat 3. This series should have been retired long ago before they decided to bring it 3d. It was never the same.
I am interested to see if the kinect will have the legs that the wii does. Wii is still selling well considering that many of us thought it was just a fad that would die off. If it does than i don't see MS sales slowing down any time soon. Give credit to MS for keeping the xbox fresh. Now all we need is more anouncements from them.
^^^^^^^ it seems 500 million will get anyone to buy anything BUT A PS3. Sounds like those ps3 sales are hurting compared to the competitio...
Cheetah: "Yes. Kinect is what is driving these sales and once that product is exposed for the rubbish it is things will return to normal. That is, xbox reigns supreme in America but that is not enough to offset the dent Sony puts in everywhere else.
Also, most 360 kids are gonna get jack of all the kinect focus this year and switch to a system that services real gamers, not pensioners, middle aged woman and babies."
Sowwy wittle guy but the ps3 ...
Like the first guy above me stated. During it's Devu on the original xbox it was something new. Once they set the wash, rinse and repeat cycle on the franchise it got old but still fun as hell to play on line on any given day.
UC1 was awsome and pulled me right in. I still have it till this day. The seadoo level was unlike anything i had thing at that time. Best water ive seen.
UC2 is UC1 with better graphics. I found UC2 boring halfway and was hoping for something that would blow me out of the water like in UC1. Never came. Bought it played it and traded within a week.
UC3 is a no go this time. I think i know what to expect now. Upgraded graphics. Whoopee.

"I don't know... I saw 6 Kinects at my local Target while Move is still sold out. :( "
And sadly you probably won't ever see them in your store again. They have to make more room for more kinects.
"Every store I go to has a bunch of Kinect bundles still available."^^^^^^^^^^
MS know their game. They wouldn't be so stupid as to not have enough stock during the busiest time of the year. That would be a wast...
Same here. A got a couple of 4870's in xfire. I'ts been nothing but problems from the start.
Purchased it just for crysis but had over heating problems and power supply problems according to the red lights that come one when it crashed. Just a couple of nights ago i was playing ME2 when it happened again. An Nvidia graphics card will probably be my next purchase.
^^^^^I'ts been topped by forza3 according to many journalist. Yes it is "f*cking retarded". I guess that's why it didn't score higher than forza 3 but to each their own. Glad to see people enjoy it at least we know it wasn't a total waste of 5 years.
Where is GT5 with it's 800 copy and paste ps2 cars??
5 years in the making and you still get gameplay and graphics from last gen. How dissapointing would you say that is??
Just my two cents.
This one will be for my pc for sure. I got my samsung 3d led and I just have to get rid of both my 4870's in favor of a 3d compatible graphics card. I just don't know who's making the better ones. Nividia?? ATi?? Time for some research.
20 sony exclusives
1 Microsoft exclusive (Gears 3) that will outsell all 20 exclusives.
just give me gears next year because that and forza 4 is enough for me. To many good multiplatforms that play better on the 360 to care about exclusives. My most anticipated being ME3.
This is bad. There isn't one title there that i am excited about. Yikes! I finished UC2 and only played it once. If UC3 is anything like 2 than i'll pass. I need more than just graphics. I look forward to
ME3
Dead Space 2
Forza 4
Batman 2
crysis 2
shift 2
only of the top of my head. 2011 will be awsome no matter what platform you prefer.
The "incomplete series" of mass effect is coming to ps3. 1 is a no show and the other part is just over a year late. This game will be a flop on ps3. I't s too bad.
Oh noes! MS used a real life video to show what features forza 4 might have. How dare you MS. Too bad it doesn't change the fact that GT5 is the biggest dissapointment of this gen. Don't worry PD the guys @ T10 will show you how to make a proper racing sim that will score an average of 9.4.
Sony has been taking a beating lately.
Gt5 sucks
Kinect outselling move by 5:1
xbox killing the ps3 in Nov npd
5 years later and ps3 is still in last worlwide
Exclusives after exclusives that don't push the ps3 past last place
this poor fanboy is buthurt. Simply hurting and frustrated that his system of choice now has no chance of catching up to the xbox. Cry moooooooare.
Let's just say the move is making it's way into early retirement and will be sitting next to the minidisc, beta and eyetoy.
