Any I put my biased opinions behind and I took a hugh step backwards and looked at kinect from a standpoint of a consumer interested in new technology and I just couldn't see why people would want to play kinect. I still can't get my head around why people want to go back to playing games that have you limited. I'm used to games like Red Dead Redemption, GTA and Fallout where I can go anywhere I want and do many things in a game. Theres no way in hell I'd go back to on rail games that have you limited to what you can do.

I looked at that harry potter demo on the E3 stage and I went WTF, all the 2 people  playing the game did was flick there rist at the camera. They stood there flicking there wrist and they looked bored as hell. One of the dudes looked like he wanted to leave.

MS will throw a bunch of money at advertising and trick loads of people into buying something that doesn't appeal to there hardcore fanbase and what does there fanbase get from it, a 10 euro Xbox live price hike which probavly covers the 500mil kinect advertising campaign and no exclusive hardcore games to play until Gears 3 releases Fall 2010. If Sony focused on move, charged use for its advertising campaign and stopped bring us hardcore gamers exclusives I would be pissed off completely

Lol, no you didn't, that whole post was biased.


Hw exactly was that biased/??

New customers include those otherwise not intersted in current games because of the complexity of controllers.  It seems you were judging on your own opinion here not that of a customer interested in new technology.

How old are you?  I doubt Harry Potter is aimed at your demographic anyway.

That is probably the brunt of the bias for most people reading your statement.  The term "trick loads of people" is hardly unbiased.  I'm part of the fanbase by the way and I'm more than happy with Microsoft's strategy, wouldn't be the first time Sony fans played list wars and lost 12 months down the line (not unlike 2010).

If Sony focused on move, charged use for its advertising campaign and stopped bring us hardcore gamers exclusives I would be pissed off completely

Microsoft haven't stopped bringing the 360 "hardcore" exclusives so again completely biased and irrelevant statement.

 

That is a good start, there is plenty left in there for others to rip to pieces if they feel like it.  I'll give you a bit of free advice, don't use terms like putting your bias aside unless you are truly willing to try and be objective in a statement.  A subjective statement can only ever be biased anyway.
