Speaking in a recent interview, the executive producer of Ubisoft's Games for Everyone range commented that she does not think the Xbox 360 can become a real family console despite Microsoft's best efforts. However, she indicated that there is more chance for the PS3 to become a family console particularly in the US market, but ultimately it depends on the content and peripherals that come out for both systems.

Viva Pinata has far to much depth to be honest, to be a real 'Kiddy' game.

But they addressed that in VP2, and made it even more awesome.

Microsoft should be honored then. Ubi considers Wii a "family console" and look what kinds of stuff it puts out on the platform. :/

Considering how Ubisoft treats the Wii, thats probably a compliment for the 360.

sry but you've obviously never played yugioh, or dual masters..ect and though i think those card games are stupid...ect infinitely large amounts of kids 8-14..ect play them and they are deep when it comes to rules...ect

Just because a game has depth doesn't mean it cant be kiddy, kids these days understand deep concepts, often better then adults do.

I agree but I find that R&C is way better for kids then viva pinata.

good, i rather 360 stay hardcore. Hardcore gamers are still out there and they need there fix. Dreamcast was the last hardcore system and before that Neo Geo Aes. 360 keeps it going. I like my PS3 for some games and movies, Wii for the fun and party games. 360 is my escape from when i need a break PC gaming.

I can live with that, my income is not affected by the 360 not getting market penetration and devs like to make games for it and are not even close to abandoning it.

For me it looks like win/win.

When I think about a Family Console, the PS3 does not come to mind at all. I mean have you've seen the Adult 18+ PS3 themes you can download, wow.

Go to your PS3 web browser and Google PS3 Themes, and you will find sites that have 18+ themes for you to download to your PS3. Don't you guys change your themes or what.

Yes, but it also has a simplistic approach for the casual market. Same thing with a lot of Nintendo's classic franchises, they have casual appeal, and hardcore appeal.
