Oh boy, a lvl 1 poster...
Maybe it is just me, but Microsoft doesn't need more than Reach and Fable 3 to keep me happy.

There are way worse level 1's out there he could have been one of those terrible PS3 vs. 360 threads.
They've been putting all of their time and hype into Kinect and in preparing for its launch, which they are treating as a new system. You really have to count the Kinect games but, considering how terrible they are I think most people would rather forget them.

This thread is pretty much that, a comparison of the Microsoft exclusives to the Nintendo and Sony exclusives.[QUOTE="davidkamayor"][QUOTE="R3FURBISHED"]

TC, he terms Microsoft exclusive, Sony exclusive and Nintendo exclusive aren't used in System Wars. And Fable 3 isn't an exclusive anyway.
If you want to know what games are upcoming for the 360 then here.
All level 1's are alt accounts.Oh boy, a lvl 1 poster...

[QUOTE="SilverChimera"]Are you joking, Kinect has a bunch of games coming out for it, like Kinectimals and Dance Central. Vault2008I meant more hardcore games aimed at their hardcore audience. Halo and Fable are aimed at all audiences. Halo being higher up on the hardcore ladder because of the uber competitive multiplayer.
While I should wonder why people don't list Kinect and its games, I know why: The crushing shame of these terrible games is too much, so they pretend they don't exist.
Kind of sad, Move's games actually look pretty good and tend to be mentioned in an ironic twist.
Hey, at least they have multiplats. Thats what PS3 had back in 2007 aside from Uncharted and GT: Prologue, so I guess MS had to suffer froma similar drought one year.

As far as I understand, the audience Kinect is marketed towards love the games that will be coming out for it. Easy to pick up and play and easy to set down. It will be a great device for drawing in children and then keeping them interested in the library the 360 offers.
Kinect games man, that's where the quality is, the hype for all those games are AAA, bar Kinectimals that's AAAA for sure.FIipModeI'm gonna go out on a limb and say Kinectimals will be the first AAAAAE.
[QUOTE="SilverChimera"]Are you joking, Kinect has a bunch of games coming out for it, like Kinectimals and Dance Central. Vault2008I meant more hardcore games aimed at their hardcore audience. Whether a game is hardcore or not is only determined by how they are played. You can play Counter Strike casually and Wii Sports hardcore. Depends on the gamer.

Exactly why people here are so reluctant to mention them, Kinect's strategy is basically "do what Nintendo did 4 years ago, but with an advanced Eyetoy" isn't the best strategy. Even though Move is basically a comfortable Wii Motion Plus, at least Move is catered for casual AND hardcore, with games like SOCOM 4 and KZ3 being Move compatible while Kinect is stuck with games like Kinectimals.
The games Kinect offer have no use in a Hardcore player's house and only serve to get soccer moms in to buying 360's instead of Wii's, there is no incentive to apply Kinect to the existing Xbox audience and offer unique ways to use it in exclusives.

So you won't even give Kinect a chance to show case some hardcore games and will label it as a gimmick and Nintendo rip-off before it even comes out?
It's had some chances to showcase some hardcore games, they were called E3 and GamesCom.So you won't even give Kinect a chance to show case some hardcore games and will label it as a gimmick and Nintendo rip-off before it even comes out?

Kincet is marketed towards the non gaming audience. So they showed games that they think would appeal to the non-gaming audience. Do you understand? Want me to slow down?

Exactly, I know it will have some applications down the line but right now its a joke. At 2009 they promised it would revolutionize how you play games and you had Peter Molynueax promising you could play Fable III with it and stuff. While I believe there are a few fun games you could play with it (such as Burnout), Kinect sucked resources from MS and came up with a bunch of crappy games and a peripheral that costs almost as much as an entire Wii and the only moderately fun games (such as Metal Gear SolidL Rising) for it aren't due until half a year or so after release.
Right now I don't think Kinect is something that would be too useful for people who spend all of their time playing Halo and Bad Company 2.
Also, Justin Bieber is advertising the game. Nothing against the kid, but the people who listen to his music don't consist promarily of 12-40 year old males who enjoy spending all of their time gaming.

I was going to go with gamers. But the press is also an acceptable answer, of course only if you're specifically referring to the enthusiast press, since the BBC and CNN aren't the major target of GamesCom or E3 as far as I'm aware.Don't patronize me.Kincet is marketed towards the non gaming audience.

You said that people weren't giving Kinect a chance to showcase hardcore games and were writing it off as a gimmick.
Except that's not the case, it's had chances to do so and chosen to showcase casual games.

Very good, know why? Because that is the audience Kinect is trying to attract.
Marketing the games that Kinect is launching with toward a hardcore audience is like marketing Arma to the non-gaming world.

That's exactly what they're doing by devoting 3/4 of an E3 press conference to Skittles and the like.
Alternatively, they're completely disregarding their current base, which is frankly, just as bad.
There's nothing wrong with people writing it off as a gimmick right now, when right now it is nothing more than a gimmick.

Then why do you believe that Kinect will somehow transform into having hardcore games ("So you won't even give Kinect a chance to show case some hardcore games and will label it as a gimmick and Nintendo rip-off before it even comes out?")when it's clearly not being marketed toward hardcore gamers?

He hasn't really given a reason for anyone to not take him seriously. I think we can all agree that MS's future of exclusives seems rather weak compared to the competition.
Yeah its hard to tell if you are seriously using those lists as ownage against PS3 or being sarcastic or saying it to 360 fans for some reason.
