Damn China numbers look good.
Has Halo been authorized to release there? I'm glad ms is showing decent effort there wouldn't mind playing some Chinese games.

So after a week with TJ Combo and the huge patch I feel like Season 2 is off to a much better start than season 1.  They removed a lot of the cheap stuff in season 1 including 0 Frames Shadow Eclipse and Full screen wind kick with Jago.  

THey also added exra poke damage which is huge as we can now effectively ground jumpers in Killer Instinct.  Last season there was no real repurcussion for this and now I can easily ground somebody.  There is also recapture moves that helps this.

A few characters got some buffs they needed while others got nerfs they needed.  

However with a big patch it also introduces a few new problems as most big patches like this does *Looking at Dota 2*.   Right now Orchid is a little too strong with damage and her new found grenades.  This right now seems to be the biggest complaint in season 2 in the KI community.  Also manauls are a little different this season.  It was stiff the first few days but now it seems to be much better.  Not sure if that was just me getting use to it or if something got fixed.  Either way it seems ok now.

The last issue is Fulgore is still not a good character.  I think they will need to buff him a little bit to get more people to use him

OVerall Season 2 is excellent so far.


I haven't touched it in a week :(

Those 200 numbers are right. Microsoft made a big mistake by going Amazon exclusive.

BTW if you look at PC packing of video games in India it is some sort of cardboard boxes because of the packing games on PC are sold at $20 average (Rs 1200) few might be priced up and few might be priced down. The console games come in fancy packing and are priced at $60-75.
What do you think if games came in those cardboard boxes but at lower prices will it be good. I think yes will let Ms capture a big chunk in India

Did XBO get adjusted up?

I think it might have. Wasn't it at 5.3m laat week? Now it's up to 5.5m, despite only 94k in sales this week. Looks like some previous week got adjusted up. 


Pretty sure it was 5.4 last week



My prediction threads:

Wii U will sell under 40m units (made on 14th September 2012)

PS Vita will sell under 20m units (made on 30th September 2012)

Wii U will sell under 7m in 2013 - I was right

Halo 4 first 9 weeks sales prediction

PS4 to be down YOY in 2015

Oh you should, for real its really good xD  I know Jago got nerfed pretty hard though so Jago players will have to learn new strategies.  But it makes the game much more fair now

The complete lack of an Xbox One?

Lol nope haha Seems more like the inclusion of Xbox One.  Forza Horizon 2 is right in the picture with Kinect below it

Does this mean we can play our Xbox One games on windows 10?  Maybe Xbox Live is going to be on windows 10?  Or maybe its cloud gaming/remote-play?  But there is something up with that picture

Compatibility of some Windows apps and games on X1 and vice versa.

Edit: Cross platform play made easier.

If i were to guess i would say its the Delorian CLoud Remote play thing we just heard about recently, but i am curious to see what it is.
