Forums - Gaming - Malstrom: NATAL (or as he calls it, the MS Phatom will never be released)

Read the rest of Malstroms post, it's more intelligent



"Pier was a chef, a gifted and respected chef who made millions selling his dishes to the residents of New York City and Boston, he even had a famous jingle playing in those cities that everyone knew by heart. He also had a restaurant in Los Angeles, but not expecting LA to have such a massive population he only used his name on that restaurant and left it to his least capable and cheapest chefs. While his New York restaurant sold kobe beef for $100 and his Boston restaurant sold lobster for $50, his LA restaurant sold cheap hotdogs for $30. Initially these hot dogs sold fairly well because residents of los angeles were starving for good food and hoped that the famous name would denote a high quality, but most were disappointed with what they ate. Seeing the success of his cheap hot dogs in LA, Pier thought "why bother giving Los Angeles quality meats when I can oversell them on cheap hotdogs forever, and since I don't care about the product anyways, why bother advertising them? So Pier continued to only sell cheap hotdogs in LA and was surprised to see that they no longer sold. Pier's conclusion? Residents of Los Angeles don't like food."

"The so-called "hardcore" gamer is a marketing brainwashed, innovation shunting, self-righteous idiot who pays videogame makers far too much money than what is delivered."

It's pretty funny seeing how threatened Nintendo fans are by this.

No, responding to the announcement of something doesn't indicate being threatened by it, there are many MS fans who feel that NATAL is something earthshattering, so of course others will step in to try and give those MS fans a dose of perspective.

they put their asses on the line by putting it in E3, it is ridiculous to think that they won't release it.

Not true at all. There are tons of games and hardware that are displayed at E3 that never see the light of day.

In big ass conferences for the whole world to see?  I can't remember any of the hardware companies spending so much time in their E3 conference for something and then never release it.

well look back at E3 05 and you will see tons of forgotten games from Sony and the others. Hardware isn't really shown on a grand scale.

If you want the biggest failure in hardware shown at E3 go look at the Phantom gaming console.

I could actually see it getting delayed untill the release of the 720. It would probably have a great chance of taking off



Either way when it is released it looks very promising, remember lionhead had 2 weeks to make that ScarY realistic interaction with that poor little AI boy

Like the part where he makes fun of Cliff Bleszinski's looks and brags about being a bodybuilder? Fuck this guy.



I think it will be released...just a long a time from now.

But at the $200 tag, how successful will it be?

You say what we're all thinking.
