I don't get why MS believes that casual gamers are content with bland, boring, and simplistic gameplay. Look at Nintendo's expanded audience games. They may not be complex in the sense of epic stories and blood and gore, but they still have great GAMEPLAY and content (well except Wii Music.)
Judging from the look of the quality from MS Kinect games, it is clear they see the expanded audience as nothing more than moron drones who will buy anything branded with a "party" image. It is an insult to these expanded audience gamers, and they will not invest in your product if you view them only as 2nd tier moron gamers that are happy with junk. These Kinetic "games" look like much of the Wii shovelware by 3rd parties that didn't sell. And like those flops, these games will be flops as well. Way to miss the point of the Wii completly MS...
This conference is going to be extremely harmful for MS I think. Not only did they completely miss the point of the Wii and what appeals to its audience, but in doing so, they have probably angered their core fanbase, which is really their ONLY fanbase.
