Meanwhile you bash Kinect in every thread you can (usually while ignoring any facts that go against your argument) and even include anti-Kinect propoganda in your sig despite the fact that the Kinect launch bears absolutely no resemblance to the 32x launch. Facts be damned when hyperbole is so much more effective! So who's paying you exactly? |
I bash it frequently because it is talked about frequently. As long as it continues to be talked about everywhere I see nothing wrong in expressing my opinion of the device, as long as it doesn't cross the line of trolling, and the mods have thus far rightfully deemed it not trolling. I have just as much a right to my opinion as the Kinect apologists, as long as I explain my arguments.
Anti Kinect propaganda? Lol, I'm just some random dude giving my two cents.. If anything, there is PRO Kinect propaganda, and trust me, there are plenty of viral marketers for the product on the internetz, so who's to say some haven't found their way to this site?
No resemblence to the 32x? Sega brought out the 32x late in the Genesis' life in a dire effort to counter the SNES. The 32x launched to massive sales its first holiday season, and Sega couldn't even keep up the demand. By next year, sales fell off a cliff because its software quality didn't measure up.
Now while I'm not necessarily saying the same pattern will exactly happen to Kinect, all signs seem to point in that direction, if you look at the lack of quality of the software, and the lack of future releases. The software doesn't even really sell NOW, and the product is brand new, riding the holiday season strength. So what makes you think it will sell during the slow periods next year?
