I mean where else can I pay to play the same games that I could be playing on other consoles for free? I even get to buy DLC for games like L4D that would've had free DLC if I bought it on PC. I mean the XBL is really great. The sheer amount of ads on the dashboard totally makes up the $50 cost. I love logging in to see a bunch of McDonalds & Mountain Dew ads cluttering the dashboard. It lets me know that my money is going towards making my XBL a more ad friendly, price hiking experie...
"This action/horror game is hardly a flop, but its sales are nowhere near what people were expecting given its five-year development cycle and the fact that it’s made by the team that created Max Payne. The problem? Red Dead Redemption, which was released the same day. Rockstar’s western epic sucked the oxygen out of the room when it came out, dominating gamers’ time and affection. Wake never had a chance."
Hardly a flop? No, it flopped hard. Then they go on to blam...
I'm done with their Call of Duty rehashes. On top of that Medal of Honor will be a far better game. If you're one of the sheep still buying the rehashes then go ahead. Enjoy you're $15 map pack that includes nothing but a bunch of maps from the previous game.
First party games are the ones that push the system to its limits & entice owners with the best exclusives. Third party is available to all systems mostly.
Sony & Nintendo know what they are doing. Microsoft on the other hand doesn't which is why they close down their first party studios and desperately try to buy exclusives that last for a few months at best.
It's a shooter & it's not like the 360 has anything else to play for the rest of the year (and some of next year). Plus, Bungie is going multiplat now so this is there last FPS (at least I hope it is as I don't want there multiplat game being yet another generic shooter).
