Really mr. I can see the future, They have already rumored several things from sources. So it's almost confirmed some big announcements will be made shortly. MS doesn't show their exclusives a year in advance, they let the hype build up for potential games.

For one, the kinect userbase is currently in the minority for system owners, but  Microsoft has to put resources into making games for that crowd if they want to continue to satisfy and that crowd and I'm sure they will. You can't expect everybody to jump aboard the kinect gaming when they already payed money for a system they wanted with the control style they wanted.

8 million is massive for any game to sell to so although you speak of it as a minority it is still very healthy and still selling. You are basing 8 million of the released numbers from MS I assume. Since then it has been selling 150-200k weekly

I never forgot about gears, but unless you own both a PS3 and a 360 I dont need you to tell me I am wrong to choose to play my PS3 for most games and my 360 slightly secondary and mostly for exclusives. I have not bought move, but at least Sony's new add on is incorporated in the types of games they have been making since the beggining.

Firstly I do own both, secondly even if someone has both systems doesnt mean they have any more say about the other console, you prefer PS3, this is fact. your wall post said you arent bias, my arse. You ranted so much to the fact that you didnt even do a little research ON THIS SITE!!! to find out about my ownership of a ps3... all you had to do is click on my name oooh, in my sig it says my ids... its not difficult.

I am no 360 hater in factI have been playing my 360 more for at least 5 months for various reasons, but in 2011 Microsoft has shifted its focus in a direction and many other multi system owners don not like.

Yeah this is clearly not the truth

End rant before it becomes an essay.

You should have ended before you started, what a bunch of garbage.

Microsoft published Gears right? Made by someone else, but published by Microsoft(like Mass Effect) I think.

Doesnt matter, like Tecmo (i think it was) with ninja gaiden sigma and ninja gaiden there are always ways apparently. Gears has full ownership of the title. It is their choice to stay exclusive. MS doesnt own the franchise.

I would like to note though, that Ninja Gaiden 2 was Published by Tecmo, not Microsoft, but only distributed by Microsoft. Gears was published by Microsoft, as was Mass Effect(for 360 at least), if that even means anything...

Then why was it such a big then when Gaiden went multiplat, add to that the original did the same thing. Why was anybody really surprised if it was made published by tecmo... that doesnt make any sense
