| OntheEdgeofthemirror said: Significantly I think not, the fact that it wasn't a significant hardware advantage is the main reason Sony passed it up, and frankly the only reason it seems(seriously doubt they'll break even even if they sell 5 mil by the end of the year) to be a commercial success is because of how much MS is advertising and hyping it, if Sony came out with kinect with the exact same games kinect has now with the hype and advertising they have for move it would have been received FAR more poorly |
Yeah, well we have evidence in the form of eyetoy to support this, which wasnt a success or a breakthrough anyway. but i agree if sony was trying to push this, it would be a disaster. its because microsoft have so much money to make it work, and they seem to have invested in games that appeal to the casuals so thats why its working. if it was the other way round, it just wouldnt work. well its up to the gamers now, i dont think kinect will become the big thing microsoft want to be based on the article, theres simply too many limitations. of course people are buying it, but how many people are buying an xbox for it??
