That's funny, I showed my two boys Knack and they thought it looked boring. Of course, they'd probably say the same for Kinect Sports Rivals. They will love the shit out of Peggle 2 and Project Spark though, can't wait to see what they come up with on that one.

Are your kids mainly into the Call of Duties and that type of stuff? If so, you're raising them wrong. :P

So basically the article is saying once kinect sports rivals hits Microsoft will own the families. So families should wait 6 months is what the article is basically saying.

Yep, that's basically what it's saying. Even though nowhere in the article does it say or imply that at all.

Excellent deductive skills.


So the entire 2nd half of the article doesnt exist?

Where it says when Kinect Sports Rivals releases everything will change? Do I miss the part where he is praising Kinect Sports? The article clearly says, at launch Knack is the only real familyish game at all. Which gives Sony a tiny launch incentive for families. Then he clearly says but when Kinect Sport Rivals releases itxs game over.

 

Swear we read 2 different articles.

Everything will change =/= Microsoft will own the families. All that means is Sony won't be the only one with family friendly games. He also never says anything about Kinect Sports Rivals being game over, especially considering all the indies on PS4 he pointed out. You're very obviously drawing conclusions that aren't there to suit your agenda, and everyone here knows it.

It's not so much the case that we read different articles as it is that you just didn't read the article at all. You saw what you wanted to see and ignored reality.

Thats some twisting right there.

Prediction = Knack LT Sales will be 700,000 without bundling.

Kinect Sports Rivals = 10 million + without bundling.

 

Twisting? How ironic lol. I'm just stating what the author of the original article said because you clearly missed it. In fact, I didn't even give my take on it. The only one who twisted anything is you.

Your sales predictions are cute and all, but are meaningless and don't do anything to alter what was said in the article. Nothing but a red herring.

Somebody can't see the 800 pound gorilla in the room.

Seriously Mr Khan.

Are you telling me we are supposed to ignore the 2nfd half of the article just to keep peace?

The guys clearly waiting for Kinect Sport Rivals. And even declares wen it releases EVERYTHING will change. Not even out. He says EVERYTHING will change. Not some, not a little bit. 

 

I swear people here read what they want to for certain companies.

e said EVERYTHING will change. Not some things will change. Or it will cange a little bit to be even. Or It will change alot. No he said EVERYTHING will change. Meaning any sligt advantage that Knack gave will be reversed. Because EVERYTHING will change. Not just something.

He didn't said that.

"I think will change things substantially"

It is a guess.. and it is not like a 180 change.

Bit off topic but i want to say this: Luigi's Mansion is one of my favorite nintendo games, easily, so is Paper mario . You raise your kids well good sir!

Do you own little big planet by any chance, that is definitely one game i recommend for kids. My little cousins absolutely love that game

OT: Gotta say I'm not too sure if Knack will sell well. I played the game and thought it was fun, but I dont think the casual audience will perceive the game this way.

Hmm. Yes that is the word used. 

Oh look sod it.

I'm just gonna start joining the online laughs. Online isnt supporting real world trends. Microsoft are hated online yet post a profit that shows the world love their products.

But here goes.

 

PS4 definately will own now. Knack will help the PS4 win the famlies across the world over. Taking sales away from Microsoft and Nintendo. Knack is gonna sell by the bucket load. 

Cant wait for Knack. My kids have a copy in their stockings early. Kinect what? We have Knack people. And Knack is all we need.

I think you need to take an English class. Everything will change =/= everything will be reversed. Using the word "everything" in this context doesn't have anything to do with the extent to which the change takes place. It's regarding the range of things that have changes enacted on them.

You're still just interpreting things the way you want them to be. You're welcome to believe what you want, but don't tack on a meaning to the author's opinion that he never intended. If you were really that confident in your position, you wouldn't need to twist the words of someone else to try and make it seem like they agree with you.
