That's hardly true. Wii-U didn't sell quite so hot. Seems Kinect may be taking some of their business. Some of the Kinect games are great and the ones that let you interact are only going to get better.

I'm not saying kinect is bad. I'm saying its failed to become an "integral" part of gaming. Sure, you have your family friendly games that are fun, just like wii, but people aren't buying Xbox for the kinect. They're buying it for the more hardcore games where kinect has no place yet.

Halo, GoW, etc. are not gonna adopt kinect and those are te biggest titles. You don't claim that Microsoft is gonna blow over Sony off a piece of hardware that the biggest franchises aren't keen on adopting. Maybe it'll be good on the next Xbox, maybe it won't. My point is, we have yet to find that out.

Fair enough.. I like the idea that Kinect - if properly played - can help a lot in getting your fitness up to par. (Though not as much as proper training, it can compensate for an otherwise sedentary lifestyle.)


At the same time.. title-wise, I agree with xDaku.. *grin*

Not necessarily true. Madden? Mass Effect? It will offer command style things to more games. Not always movement.
