Before you yell TROLLLLLLL!!1! I present to you exhibit A.

And don't tell me you didn't see this coming.

Seriously? PERFECT?

But what's worse, Your Shape: Fitness Evloved...as the mother's day bundle. Do you want to get slapped?

"Here Mum/Mom have this exercise game, you need to lose a few kilos/pounds. Oh, and I got you this power tool set too."

"Why thank you son*. You're cooking your own dinners until next mother's day." *let's face it what daughter is going to be so insensitive to give her mother a fitness game for mother's day.

At least Wii went with Sports and Sports Resort for their Mother's day deal. And they had the good sense to leave out the "perfect" bit.

Price shown is New Zealand Dollars.

PS3 is so hardcore it's ignoring Mother's Day completely with a God of War III and inFamous bundle.

Hardcore? As in "hardcore" gamer. I really hate that term. It's a joke. The hardcore gamer of today is anything but.



 OMG! They are catering to other customers besides self-proclaimed 'hardcores'!

Revoke the bastards! Revoke them!



I personally think mothers are more hardcore than toddlers. It has been decided though, none of the consoles are hardcore.

That's a pretty sweet bundle if toy story is your kinda thing.

Toy Story definitely does not appeal to the hardcore audience. Those 12 year old racist COD players wouldn't be seen dead watching a movie like that. It's all the bright colours...

Case in point, when I went to see it with my girlfriend, there were more people around our age (25 and 22 at the time) than there were kids/teens.

when are Cod players HardCore, Hardcore players have intellegents which cod players certainly lack in. 

Anyways: Why wouldn't they not bundle MJ or Dance Central, since Kinect has been showcased on shows like Ellen and Opra and Dance central has been advertised on those shows and MJ adds have been around. 

As soon as my mum saw the MJ game she turned to me and said, wow why dont you get that. I bought her the burno mars album instead. I am not spending 500 dollars for an game she wont even play. 

Anyways: Australia is the land of Bundles, anything electronic over an few hundred dollars is rare to find not bundled with something, if its not you are being ripped off. EB games have an 360/Wii or PS3 bundle every week. 



Of Course That's Just My Opinion, I Could Be Wrong

Ahh... but you forgot about OTHER times of the year...

Remind me how this screams, "I am a member of the hardcore club!"

I think companies are more interested in getting their game systems into living rooms than pandering to this "hardcore" mentality.
