In a pre-E3 pep talk, Microsoft highlighted the Xbox 360's ongoing success and teased some plans to keep its momentum rolling. The company has sold 67 million units since the console launched in 2005, generating over $56 billion at retail and earning Microsoft a 47% share of the current-generation console market. An increasing number of Xbox 360s are sold each year and that trend is expected to continue in 2012.
Huzaifa from eXputer: "2008 was home to the likes of Call of Duty: World at War, Dead Space, GTA 4, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, and many other hits, which is outright remarkable."
While the mainstream media always sees things turning in favor of the hero, here are 6 games that own being a bad guy.
Pretty much all of these games listed are based around a morality system you don't have to be bad and you don't have to be good.
It seems to have left out some real amazing games like red dead redemption 1/2,ass effect and true crime la/ny
Armored Core VI?
Ok, I'm really missing something here. Just beat chapter 3 earlier this evening, unlocked A-rank Arena fights. I'm not seeing or sensing any branching paths or morality system and I've done every side mission and arena fight available to me up to that fight.
Is something big coming soon to branch the story?
No mention of Grand Theft Auto? Saints Row (original trilogy), Manhunt? Also The Suffering (depending on the ending you get).
Video games are no longer just a simple past time. Today's games are evolving into true works of art. Offering intriguing narratives, cinematic setpieces, and profound messages, games can entertain us for hundreds of hours.
I never got around to mass effect - I’m skeptical that it would hold up if I were to try it now
now where have i heard this before?
I don't want them to be my entertainment hub.
This will be marked as trolling.
Where is this 47% coming from, especially considering that there are more Wiis out there. Nevermind that the PS3, despite being in 3rd, still has a chunk of the market as well. And that's just consoles.
Also: hasn't *everyone* been selling less numbers? Again that's just consoles.
It's a GAMES console Microsoft...A GAMES CONSOLE
If you aren't interested in the games industry anymore and you want out why don't you admit it.
The only reason they havent left yet and are turning the Xbox into a media hub is because they don't want to leave the audience they've built up over the years behind, not knowing (or ignoring) that most of their audience are gamers and don't care about this sort of stuff.
I mean trying to change the games industry into something which goes against "gaming" for their own greedy needs is disrespectful to gamers who have followed them since the Xbox.
Least when Sony marketed the PS3 as a media hub with it's main blu ray feature back in 2006 it was presented as that. Now they don't need to worry about it anymore since they had a plan from the beginging and are focusing on the games...you know what make a console.
Honestly I don't understand MS sometimes.
