He didn't say they did. But that's what Sony attempts to do. Several of their exclusives have poor or modest sales. They also eat into 3rd party sales.

In my opinoin MS is pro-developers. Sony is pro-Sony. Not necessarily a bad thing, but they have different strategies.

That opinion is unfounded, holding off on making good games has never helped 3rd parties, the 3DS is proof enough of that 

Who said everything they make is good?

3DS is different. People primarily buy Nintendo platforms for Nintendo games.

lol wow lol and no1 said everything they make is good I just see stuff that isn't good as irrelevant (and I don't mean like amazing must have I mean simply good) so yeah theres a reason ps3 is getting more third party support now then 360 and thats because Sony is pumping out their games so that pretty much throws your theory out the window and don't most companies make more money off of ps3, bandai did so I just don't see where you get the idea that releasing less is better when there is so much evidence to the contrary 

EDIT: also capcom shipped more ps3 games and expects to ship more this year then 360 funny they expect to make more sales on the year that Sony releases a ton of good games

It sure is rediculously funny that Japan centric companies make more mony on PS3 than 360, infact it has me in giggle-fits... but the simple answer is that no 3rd parties don't make more money on PS3, in general that is, compared to 360 even now the majority of multiplatform games sell more on 360. Ok so it isn't as much as it used to be and there are certain genres that completely buck the trend e.g. fighters, JRPG's etc... but it is something like a 60/40 split in favour of 360 still (no source to support this, im fat and lazy).

But even considering all that I feel I must ask one very prudent question, just what exactly does that have to do with Microsoft tripling Kinects library of games? or indeed their comment on not abandoning the 'Core' audience? 

-----------------------

OT:  For now I am going to trust microsoft to deliver something special on the games front for both non-Kinect and Kinect audiences, afterall it is their 10th aniversary I don't think they are just going to let it slip past without some nice new game releases and announcements.
