Rik wrote:Perfect Dark Zero was a launch game ported from Xbox, online it was pretty good. Banjo will be known as one of the most underrated games this gen when all is said and done, however like I said Rare have been one of the main reasons for the 360 massive sales bounce.

To say anyone else could have done it is almost as stupid as the Nintendo claim that they could have made Halo but chose not to, pretty strawberry floating stupid.

Hardly, the same is it now? You comparing developing Halo to Kinect Sports now? Next you'd be comparing developing Mario to wii sports.

Once again you fail to answer my question. Do you agree that MS are short on the exclusive side? Once the Gears exclusivity goes away. They left with Halo and Forza.

The ME3 voice recognition stuff is not something that interests me, I'd rather push a button than talk to a console, but I can understand some people might like it. However, couldn't this be done with any head set or microphone? The gun customisation in Ghost Recon was quite cool, but I could see it getting tired, the shooting with Kinect however looked bloody awful, it worked, but I'd much rather use a controller than jazz hands to to pull the trigger. Quite liked the look of TR and MW3 looked Ok, but I'll probably skip the latter and go for Battlefiled 3 instead.

If you want to ignore all the Kinect games and Kinect intergration features, you may not be that interested in them but it has just made up the biggest Xbox year in history sales wise.

Weren't you having a go at Nintendo for doing the same all those years ago? What has changed? 10m have bought Kinect. So what about the 40m who haven't?
