Xbox 360 Launch: Success or Mess?

[Paco]

Because more PD fans probably have GC, not Xbox, and most Halo fans have Xbox... and the two are different kinds of FPSes. So doesn't it make sense that PDZ will do worse on the console full of Halo fans than it would on one full of people who loved Rare's previous FPSes?

And Rare can hopefully make some Perfect Dark fans on the 360.

Doesn't it make sense that if you want to widen your appeal then you would need to have options other than Halo? PDZ and Halo are very different FPS, and they can both have a place on the 360 with their own audiences.

Uhh... notice my point about "mistakes"? As I said, it takes both mistakes from the leader and good moves from the followers... I didn't think it was necessary to elaborate, given how well-known the facts about what happened with PSX vs N64 should be...

Who says these mistakes won't happen again?

Unless you are implying that Sony is making mistakes? I don't see them doing that... not really...

It depends. If the PS3 is too expensive for developers then they will make less games for it (because they can't afford to otherwise), if it's too expensive for consumers then it will take longer to get to the all important mass market. Sony has built a video game empire, and it is historically accurate to say all empires fall. I'm not saying it's going to happen in the next year or the next 20 years, just eventually. It's inevitable.

That sure doesn't make your point make one bit more sense, to say the least... it's just a tactic used to discredit Nintendo, simple as that.

Portables =! Consoles :)
