It amazes me the lack of awareness of what is going on right now in gaming. Even gaming journalists seem oblivious to what has happened in the last few years. Despite what some would have you believe there ARE definitely different groups of gamers now at large (call it core and casual if you like - the title matters not). The target audience for this initial launch of kinect is NOT your Halo, MW2, Bioshock, GT5 or FFXIII audience. It is the Wii fit, Wii sports, Wii party perhaps even Mario Kart audience. Review sites like this cannot help such a launch and can only harm it. MS know this. We all know this... or at least we should know this. MS are being smart, the best reactions for this will be from the mainstream media and from word of mouth. The traditional gaming press will likely be very elitist about it and probably a tad negative. Thats my take anyway. |
QFT!
I agree... how can so many of your be so ignorant?
I'd also like to add that Move is getting a pounding from behind from reviews... I've only seen 1 game from Move get an 8 so far... the rest got 4, 5 and 6's... now idc about Move because I don't own a PS3 but I've seen reviews of quite a few games casually on my way to reading other things and that's the general view of reviewers.... MS smart move... no wonder your so dam rich!
Again these reviewers are core reviewers... so we all know its gonna go bad. Look at Move.... poor poor Move.
All gaming systems, consoles/PC, have thier perks... why fight over preferences? I like Coke and you like Pepsi, that's it, let's not fight over which toy we like best cause that's what they are. Is someone's preference in a toy important or is the relationship between you and your neighbor more important? Answer is obvious, but THE most important thing is your relationship with God almighty. God Bless you in Jesus's name.
I can communicate without talking... I can send a loved one money without actually sending money... and I can commit theft without the product disappearing, the point of theft is the point of theft not one of it's possible symptoms which is the product dissappearing. The thief wants to gain something without paying for it, that's the point of theft, the thief doesn't have to care or anybody else has to care if the product dissappears. The product dissappearing is just a possible symptom of theft. Gifts are sacrfices, in order to give a gift, it has to be a genuine sacrfice/gift, meaning a copy of the game isn't still in your PC. Piracy is theft and/or being a culprit of theft.
