Microsoft Won't Back Down From Japan Console Race

The industry may be envious of the Wii's popularity with the non-gamer market, but Moore says that he has nothing to envy about Sony's current offering. "The PS3, I really don't know what I would look at there that we're really missing," said Moore, while pointing out that he's very confident in Xbox 360's software portfolio and Xbox Live service. "The online service, [Sony's] still trying to get it up to speed and there's nothing really there that I can really point to that I wish we had. You know, certainly the price point of the PS3 isn't something that I want to emulate."

Microsoft is enjoying Xbox solid success most of its territories, and Moore is not anticipating any change in leadership a year from now. "Obviously we have the intent to grow the lead we have. The attach rate is very important as well and making sure people are buying lots of games for their console. The rate of 5.1 here in America is very, very healthy," he said "I think if we sat here a year from now we'd be able to say, we took advantage of the critical mass we got, there are more games being made than ever for the Xbox 360."

Microsoft is determined to take over something. You know whats gonna come next right?

bilal6286d ago

i think they are trying and they should continue to push for japanese market........its important for them because japanese market is not just about the japanese people who bought the system its also about the japanese developer support which is important all around

MoonDust6286d ago

Some cool games and they should get some fans.

dissectionalrr6286d ago

frankly i don't really give a damn how microsoft does in japan. i don't live in japan or own microsoft stock. i also happen to despise "japanese" style video games. spiky haired kid saving the world from impending doom, cooking simulators, dating games, not my style. i prefer western style shooters and racing/sports games. that is the only reason i prefer x360 over ps3. well that and live, but that's a given. then again i am american, so it only makes sense....

Boink6286d ago

I'm not a huge fan of japanese games, but some are pretty good.

just keep putting out the games they want, and they will come.

Used to love this one, but X-Men Legends 1 and 2 will always be my favorites, especially Rise of Apocalypse. Would pay some good money to play it today with online multiplayer, back then I had no way to get a modem

I remember buying them dirt cheap on the PS4 and then a few days later I read they were delisted. I was wondering why the bundle was price so low and got my answer when that happened.

Knightofelemia1h ago(Edited 1h ago)

Sad to say this is one game franchise next to the Xmen that needs a sequel. I use to play the hell out of Xmen Legends and Marvel Ultimate Alliance. Was great when my cousin had the OG Xbox play with four other people and then playing online. Great games glad to see it reappear even though I own the discs love the mechanics of this game.

Terry_B1h ago

It got a sequel..but for dumbass #reasons as a switch exclusive.

shinoff21831h ago

It looked so horrible to. They should've kept it similar to the first two.

Asplundh55m ago

Because Nintendo funded it, they did the same for Bayonetta.

Knightofelemia38m ago

I totally forgot about the Switch sequel.

jukins1h ago

Misleading. This page is whats available for people who owned the game prior to delisting.

Abnor_Mal27m ago

The first game was the best imo.

Huzaifah from eXputer: "Sleeping Dogs from the early 2010s is one of the best open-world games out there but in dire need of a resurgence."

I agree, I consider the first one a cult classic already

isarai3d ago

You say "yet" as if it's even possible anymore. United Front Games is gone, along with anyone that made this game what it is

CrimsonWing693d ago

That’s what happens when games sell poorly. And I’ve seen people wonder why people cry when a game sells badly… this is your answer.

solideagle3d ago

Majority of the time it's true but if a company/publisher is big (in terms of money), they can take a hit or 2. e.g. I am not worried about Rebirth sales as Square will make Remake 3 anyway but if FF 17 doesn't sell then Square might need to look for alternative. <-- my humble opinion

Abnor_Mal3d ago

Doesn’t Microsoft own the IP now since they acquired Activision?

DaReapa3d ago

No. Square Enix owns the IP.

Abnor_Mal3d ago

Oh okay, Activision owned True Crime, but when that didn’t sell as intended it was canceled. Six months later Square Enix bought the rights and changed the title to Sleeping Dogs.*

*As per Wikipedia

boing13d ago (Edited 3d ago )

Sleeping Dogs was a sleeper hit back then. It was fantastic. It actually still is. Would love a sequel to this, or at least a revive of True Crime series.
