| Dodece said: Perhaps he knows something that we as casual viewers do not. Based on the games presented at the conference I would say I find it hard to imagine hardcore or even core gamers buying the product for their own use. Not to mention why they would want to make their happy box a social experience for the entire family. I sincerely hope that Microsoft isn't making the mistake of confusing their demographics for one another. I am afraid they may already be softening their definitions, and they may want to generalize their experience, and as anyone knows from the Wii that lends itself to a mediocre experience. You can't make games that everyone enjoys equally, because the established gamer is far more competitive, and wants a deeper experience. Somehow I find it counterintuitive that Microsoft would make a mistake that Nintendo wouldn't even make. After all Nintendo didn't release the Wii without a few core/hardcore titles. They even had a handful of mature titles less then half a dozen months after launch. Hell in this case they don't even need to fully support Kinect they could just implement voice recognition into their games. I will be kind of shocked if Halo Reach doesn't support some modest use of these features. After all how hard could it be. How hard would it be to implement retroactive patches to dozens of games just for added functionality. That is a question for another thread though. |
