Can't argue with facts.:)
what are they suppose to say? that "our product is worse than sony's and Nintendos."

It's funny cause if Sony was in MS's position and said those lines, it would be considered PR spin. You know Sony is the only one that talks arrogant. MS are saints!
No wonder lemons care so much about sales, monkey see, monkey do. :P
:lol: I was about to say the same exact thing.Now where was the guy that told me MS takes the high road and doesn't like to chest pound...

But when Sony says something much less blunt, they are being "arrogant" and evil, and picking on everyone else, and "out of touch with reality" :roll:.what are they suppose to say? that "our product is worse than sony's and Nintendos."

Did you see the s*** storm over a little comment that a Naughty Dog developer made about the Wii U? Something that ONE developer just said off the top of his head? But when Microsoft says something like this, its "well what else would they have said?"

they didn't compare a last gen console to a next gen one. they talked about software. A bit different comparing the wii u and insulting it then saying we're better. There's a pretty big line there. just sayin...........and I don't agree with them either, i think Nintendo's has been better tbh.[QUOTE="Microsoft1234"]

well sony's pr on gaming has been pretty much laughable in comparison to Nintendo and Microsoft. That's a whole different level. But this isn't as crazy as it would be if microsoft said something regarding the ps3 or Wii. I'm sure sony and nintendo's pr would both believe they have the better first party games. Whether it's true or not. No need to be so hostile.wow system wars must be pretty stale to try to get reactions out of this.they didn't say anything like"halo is better than uncharted, resistance, etc" specifically. They just said their first party software is better.

ND just looked at what Nintendo has reveiled about the Wii U and said it didn't look any different than what they could offer with PS3 + PSP/Vita. There was no insult. They even acknowledged they were wrong about the Wii.
Undeniable proof that MS is giving lems what they want: Kinect and shooters. MS delivers, lems receive.kuraimen
give and take relationship....makes sense

yea who knew talking about the ps3 and wiiu would be a compliment :roll:For people who don't want to read the article, this is basically it.
"We're better we're better, we're better we're better, we're better, we're better Nanananananana we're better doopisy derp we're better Halo Forza Some other Random Microsoft Game Studios title, we're better we're better Nannananana"

Even if true, why say it? of course it would look bad.[QUOTE="OneLazyAsian"][QUOTE="Microsoft1234"]

So he's using sales as a means to state that? Weak.Stevo_the_gamer
Im sure sales is what they care about seeing as there in this business to make money.
Look there's a big difference between saying we have better games, then saying "halo beats the crap out of uncharted."FireEmblem74There is a difference for sure. SOny has the games to back up their statements. Mirosoft has almost no first party support and very little third party support.
EDIT: By that I mean the last couple years. There's no doubt the 360 was the obvious choice for the first few years this gen. But when it comes to games I believe that PS3 has the upper hand lately.
Regardless of the quality of the system itself, that's rubbish. First-party isn't MS's strongest point.

Just like they are back tracking their statements if MS uses blu-ray next gen.[QUOTE="StrongDeadlift"]But when Sony says something much less blunt, they are being "arrogant" and evil, and picking on everyone else, and "out of touch with reality" :roll:.[QUOTE="Microsoft1234"]

I did not know wiiU was next gen?So he's using sales as a means to state that? Weak.Stevo_the_gamerWhich is a bigger joke because Nintendo has sold like 25 million copies of Mario Kart wii far eclipsing any first party game from MS,and even any Call of duty game on 360,and is we go by hardware number again they would loose,the Wii has sold more,and even by Meta and Gamerankings non xbox 360 first party game is higher rated than Mario Galaxy 1 and 2.
"I think our first party performance in terms of quality bars and units per title this shift has been superior to our competition's."
Smells a little like some PR DC from a senior exec. About what I would expect from any of them.
He has some legitimacy to his argument though based on clever and selective wording/comparison.
Note the use of units per title as the key measure. Sure MarioKart kicks butt in total sales, but Nintendo has a lot of first party titles many of which are mediocre sales so the average units per titlemight be lower than MS. Similarly, Sony obviously has more first party titles but again it is an average per unit/title that he is claiming. Quality is more subjective so I won't go there.
Can't say I'd expect much different though from any of them.
