That sounds really logical... *rolls eyes*.
So, MSFT paid $50 for exclusive DLC. And Sony paid $0 for GTAIV bundles.
Perhaps MS didnt want the bundle? Perhaps Sony didnt want the DLC?
On what planet is your narrative logical?
So, if Sony bundles GTAIV with a PS3.
Who thinks that GTAIV may be bundled with Xbox 360 in other places? Like, say, Japan and USA.

Grand Theft Auto has been on a Microsoft Platform since GTAI.
GTA has _ALWAYS_ been multiplatform.
Get a clue.
Maybe you lost your bubbles because you bring up fictional stories about heat-failures every chance you get?
Try and stay on-topic. Thanks.
It would be useful in casual, arcade type games. Exactly.
Im less worried about the speaker than the ACCURACY of the thing.
Playing with the Wii always feels like "cheating", the conroller just kind of assumes too much.
@2.1
They all "copy" each other. PSN is copying Achievements.
Microsoft spends plenty of R&D every year. They also employ more PhDs than any other firm on the planet.
If Microsoft does decide to do it, I hope they make it work better than the Wii does.
The wii is pretty inaccurate control.
And, it really wont be for games like Fable, but games like Ping-Pong and Baseball and other such things.
Further, they'll be able to get multi-plat games Xbox 360 & Wii.
They are comparing the two libraries, as they exist RIGHT NOW.
And, we'll see how this cahnges in the FUTURE... when, you know that happens, then... in the future.
Because Xbox 360 & PS3 & Wii have more games, you know, in the FUTURE.
Do you have a crystal ball or something?
LOL@The people reporting this story as Lame.
This is an objective analysis of Game Review Scores.
Its fact, sure, they injected a little comentary, but there is no doubt that the Gaming Industry has said that the Xbox 360 games are better -- why? Because they give them REVIEW SCORES.

"Gears of War will buy the second Gears of War, but it will not give new systems to the 360."
"Halo 1/2 owners will buy Halo 3, but it will not give new systems to the 360" <-- Does that make any sense? NO!
Gears of War sold terrific. It got exceptional reviews, and MANY MANY Game of the Year awards.
If you -- for even one second -- think that Gears of War 2 will not be an absolute phenomenon (like, was ...
"- 30%+ Xbox 360's are dead anyway, ala RROD"
Its funny you'd say that.
But the source for **THAT** claim is **ALSO** an anonymous australian gamestore employee.
Fool.
itwire is *REPEATING* this BS story from smarthouse.co.au
Are you that incapable of navigating the modern mediasphere?
This smarthouse.co.au guy is a theif, a plagarist and a well known traffic troll.
If he writes a ridiculous lie, and it gets repeated, that doesnt make it reality.
If the complaint is it is "too hard", well sign me up.
Who wants to just blaze through a game in 20 hours without any trouble? I *like* a game to show some CHALLENGE.
@2.1
A) The heat issues were resolved with the redesign in mid-2007. Every owner gets a free fix. Its a dead issue, and your comment is off-topic FUD.
B) Sales have nothing to do with this. The article is accurate, it is simply pointing to the opinion of the industry's gaming press.
Like-it or not, the Xbox 360 has a more highly acclaimed library. And there hasnt been any change in that.
Later in 2008, both consoles will have games that ...
Its not their "opinion".
Goto Gamerankings or metacritic yourself. The numbers dont lie.
The source of the "Xbox is dead in Australia" article -- originally from Smarthouse.co.au -- should be deleted from N4G.
Please have a look at this story on Smarthouse.co.au owner -- and approve it.

That sounds fantastic, thanks for the update.
My friends and family love this kind of stuff.
We need more casual, easy games. When they come over, they want to play puzzle games, Brain Challenge -- they _love_ Scene It?
Catan and Carcasonne are big hits here too.
