Which raises the question, why is MS still trying to bring core gamers into Kinect? I can't say RoN was hyped at all but core games on kinect don't seem to be taking off. I think dance central and the fitness games will carry kinect just fine...for about 2 more years.

I had high hopes for this one. I'm not gonna buy it (unless it's really cheap), though. Too many big games coming out in the next couple of months. I suspect that the Gunstringer will do similarly poor despite being critically acclaimed.

Just like I said way back when, any game selling for Kinect or even the PS Move isn't just competing against other Kinect/Move titles. They're competing against every other title on the console. I hoped it would do better but that's the reality of it. A game selling to a fraction of the 360's audience competing against every game on the 360 (and if you're a multiple console owner, every game on every console)--and in the case of Rise of Nightmares, a game that isn't very good.

It's right there in the OP:

''Child of Eden: 0.13m.''

Sorry I couldn't help myself. I'm shocked at how little it has sold - had no idea. I tried to rally some of my friends into buying it, but it didn't quite work out. A shame.

MS hasn't really put out a solid effort to do so just yet. Fable is probably the hardest they'll try, and the point is to get Kinect into the house to introduce it to more casual players. Someone who isn't an avid gamer most likely wont drop 300 on Kinect/360, especially if they already have a Wii. 

oh god, that game took forever to reach those sales and was heavily discounted. Hell there selling this game for 2 bucks NEW on Amazon

i wonder if Star Wars will do better?

the games you mentioned flop, i dont know why you brought Madworld into it, you could have made your point without it. 

You really should open up the link Rol has to understand..

So, Kinect has only like 5% of hardcore gamers and the rest of casuals, like Wii?
OMG

i bet OP wrote this article since Kinect launch
and finally he can use it
