Honestly microsoft does not have to garner any favouritism by way of critics as there target audience doesnt rely on critical praise when deciding on a product,its more of a 'ooh that looks good, il buy it' mentality, ie the wii

I would actually argue that many casual gamers are more discriminating that their "Hard-Core" counterparts. They tend to choose games that they have had fun with in person, and have yet to hype games simply because they have good graphics. While games like Just Dance may have been poorly reviewed and sold well, I would bet that (roughly) 75% of the copies were sold to people after they had played and enjoyed the game; I would doubt that any HD game would have similar levels of people trying before they bought them as the typical casual Wii game.

Ye i agree with you, casual gamers mainly look at the fun factor of games, but thats just my point, theyr really not interested in the technical aspects of either the games or the hardware itself. Whilst most of the critcism surrounding kinect directly targets its technical inabiltys, not whether the games themselves are are fun.
