Microsoft's one, two punch to Sony's gut..... R.I.P Sony

Natal and a Slim model...

It really is genious when you think about it, isn't it? Relaunching the Xbox brand with a completly new console and a completly new way to play.

When i say "completly new way to play" I dont mean blatantly copying Nintendo, either. Personally I think Microsoft will dominate 2011 in sales for a few reasons lets look at what made the wii so successful when it launched

1. Holiday release

2. Radically new way to play games

3. Press Coverage (Jimmy Fallon, Good Morning America)

we have these three ingrediants this coming holiday season... all in which point to a new (and rightfully so) leader of the console wars:

MICROSOFT

it doesnt take a marketing analyst to see why this will be so successful, all the competition should watch out... this includes Nintendo, as for Sony :lol: uhhh good luck?

Really!? Cause I could of swore I looked at my 360 just a minute ago and it's face was badly bruised up from all the great games Sony has been throwing at them lately.

aahh ya man i cant wait to hit those big red balls, whew what fun i'll have.:roll:

and that new xbox i cant wait to buy my fifth xbox yet it'll be so fun.

2 threads? Your a sad trollBigBadLanTerN

close this topic... i posted it twice by mistake

This is the same thread I just read...what's going on in SW?

This is NATAL, I'm not sure I want it...

If a 360 slim rumor is revealed to actually be true, and we can't use our current 360 HDD's, I can't imagine how anyone will be able to spin that a good news.

no just blatantly copying sony with slim consoles and natal with the eye toy...but since its microsoft its fine :roll:

xbox360 sales will definitely increase mostly because xbox360 fanboys will bay the slim version even if they already have the current one

this is the 7th version of 360 allready? the RROD Slim is next

and natal? natal.... talking to a 7yr old.... such fun

It will sell pretty well if it's at the right price point. For all those who don't have a 360 that is. Those that do, can get Natal seperately IF its cheap, not if its more than $50 is my guess.

I look at natal in 2 ways:

1. They price it relatively cheap, but the tech isnt anywhere near what they are promising and doesnt get much support

2. The tech works like they say it does but is really really expensive

I cant see the natal tech working exactly as they say it will while also being priced low enough for people to want to buy it

People have been saying this ever since the PS3 released. I still don't see it dead.

And if you remember? MS had a 4 billion dollar loss with the original XBOX? Sony might have more amount of losses but I highly doubt them stopping as a company. Sony has other products other than game related ones.

Might I remind you of this?

Instead of trolling, you can buy the other systems and enjoy more games for yourself. Your loyalty in companies has no use other than limiting the amount of games you could play.

What I was trying to show was this fanboy fights are worthless and an utter waste of time. Be a Manticore people. We play games, not companies.

Lock 2 fanboys in a room with 2 rocks and they would fight to the death about which rock is better. :roll:

Not interested in either of those, but I do still prefer my 360 over my PS3.

"oh look! MS have come up with this never before seen never heard of idea! play games without a controller!! i'll support that to the death even though they have shown practically nothing and is probably going to be riddled with bugs but who cares cos it's made by Microsoft!!!11. . . now i'll go insult the Wii for being a casual console lawl!!" - 360 fanboy

Really!? Cause I could of swore I looked at my 360 just a minute ago and it's face was badly bruised up from all the great games Sony has been throwing at them lately.

Has the X360 slim been announced yet? And is anyone else concerned about the second coming of the RROD in the new slim model? :? If the pics people had up are anything to go by, I seriously would not trust that fan...

Yikes, well TC I would guess you got a 200+ post count going with this thread - grats....:P

That's what I've been saying since Natal has been announced........"hasn't Sony already done this before with Eye toy?". Of course we don't really know how the games on Natal will play so we can't really say they copied Sony......yet. But that's why this post is just silly, specially calling out Sony for copying Nintendo lol. Sony has been doing motion sensing way before Nintendo or MS. It's just no bought it for the PS2.darthogre

The one pro for NATAL is that MS is going to put out a lot more support for it than the PS2 eye toy. Once the eye toy didn't sell tremendously, developers had no reason to dedicate resources for making a game on it. First thing MS needs to do is make sure as many people as possible have Natal which packaging it in with lets say a 360 all for $300 is a good start.

360 Slim will claim ownage? this has got to be a joke.
