If Microsoft have no significant games for E3, then they've already lost it. Extra services, almost all certainly tied to a Gold account so they can 'monetize' us, are about as attractive to me as a Ballmer forcing a 360 down my throat, that manic expression of his leering down at me as he squeezes it in.
I need new games, Microsoft. Justify my ownership of your console, please.

No. Microsoft knows they don't need to impress gamers to win. In order to win own the casual home. Their plan was always to take over the gamers home with multimedia ever since they saw Sony do it. The difference between Sony and Microsoft is Sony gives a damn about gaming and are actually good at it. Microsoft couldn't fool the Japanese into caring about them, but Americans..thats a different story.

japanese just don't buy foreign products if they can buy the same quaility from a japanese company, that's it...the whole japanese car market is 95% japanese cars, don't tell me the other companies of the whole world don't build good cars. and if they would have a big shoe company like nike or adidas, they wouldn't buy adidas and nike anymore.
there are a few exceptions, but only a few...

Mizuno?
|
i meant worldwide successful. and if they buy only this mizuno and nothing else it would even worse than i thought^^
|
Mizuno is worldwide successful, top golfers use their clubs, and they make great running shoes, but it isn't the top brand by market share in Japan, Asics (also japanese) is.
Between Asics (1st brand in market share in Japan) and Mizuno (4th in marketshare) the Japanese brands have a big slice of the pie.

yes golf clubs and stuff like this. and maybe they make shoes as well but i have never heard about mizuno shoes. and please don't say me mizuno is comparable to nike or adidas if it comes to worldwide success for shoes^^ and like i said, there are a few exception but no one can deny that one of the reasons japanese don't buy the xbox is that they like to buy their own stuff. for some games, they buy 100k playstations like the for game which came out few months ago (no clue about the name). if microsoft would have exactly this game exclusive, mabye 1/50 of japanese would buy the xbox who bought the playsation for that game.
and it's not only japan, but i believe japan is extreme in these things. we germans like to buy german cars as well, it's just normal.
