Don't want to stray too far off topic, but that doesn't help anyone here. 
On Topic:
To me the problem here is that MS is putting a lot of their internal effort into Kinect right now because they want it to be a success. Doing this however puts other things on hold since Microsoft has nowhere near the amount of internal studios that SONY and Nintendo have. Those companies can develop casual games and core games simultaneously and at a rapid rate.
Until MS decides to buy studios instead of letting them go it probably isn't going to change. 3rd Party exclusivity going the way of the dinosaur highlights this problem even more.
Doesn't mean the games they do manage to pump out are bad, but don't expect Nintendo and/or SONY sized lists that spread across various genres.
Hopefully the new LionHead title that they will be working on around the holidays will be a true core title. Well, it better be since they are putting the Fable series on hold! >.<
iPhone = Great gaming device. Don't agree? Who cares, because you're wrong.
