In the final part of the 'Edge talks to hardware bosses' series we hear from Xbox chief Peter Moore on Sony's controller and the prevalence of shooters on Xbox 360...
Edge: So, first question: when are you announcing your motion sensitive controller?
Peter Moore: [Chuckles] I thought we had one in the cupboard... Y'know, we used to have one a long time ago. It will be interesting to see if it's a fundamental part of the ship. I've just been over at Sega playing Sonic and Super Monkey Ball, and it's actually a lot of fun, but the Sony one I don't quite get.
Salman from Tech4Gamers writes "Mortal Kombat 9 revived the series from a low point after bringing it back to 2D combat. It marked a new high-point for the franchise due to its incredible roster, exciting cinematic story mode, and high-octane combat."
That game was actually goated. It was the first time ever that I actually tried to get good at a fighting game. Unfortunately the online connection was so dogshit it made it hard to enjoy and eventually I gave up. Haven't really played much fighting games since.
Microsoft has slashed the prices of games across the Xbox 360 store in preparation for its July 29th closure.
The Dishwasher
Vigilante 8
Two non-BC and no-PC-version Arcade titles I downloaded recently. Dishwasher's sequel is on Steam at least.
I've also downloaded Ninety-Nine Nights II (shame the first wasn't available). I still want to download Burnout 3: Takedown before the weekend's up, though that is still the full $9.99 non-discounted price
The Xbox 360 Marketplace is officially shutting down in three days, which means dozens of exclusive, digital-only 360 games will no longer be available to purchase anywhere else once it does.
The Xbox 360 will be almost 20 years old next year, and to celebrate this milestone Microsoft have decided to obliterate all of its online functionality.
Fortunately, the X360 was jailbroken a long time ago, so a good part of its library is available for download from 'alternative' sources. Still, it's a bummer to see the store going away.

-72 Hours Remain-
Also they can keep the store up for life if they wanted.
Series X for the back compat titles, and OG Xbox and X360 for those not on BC. I pretty much bought all of the digital games I want for the 360 so I am good.
this guy dreams and talks nothing but ps3.Dude focus on your own strategy..that`s the 360.
i`m summing up all his passed articles and the majority of them has something to smash sony.
The article only brought up about Sony controller once. The rest of the interview was about shooters on the 360 and the Arcade, thats it. So Sony fans calm down a little and read the article .
...this is the closest they can get to news about their favorite console :). Not alot of PS3 news out there to keep them occupied, except editorials about how its not worth the money and rumors that its specs are being downgraded again.
Oh yeah, they keep posting the same MGS4 trailer over and over again in different resolutions :)
Now, lets wait for it....go on fanbois, gimme the good old "yeah, well, your xbox1.5 overheated and burned down your house" - the official "I know you are but what am I" argument of the console wars :)
For the record, I am not really a 360 fanboy, just can't stand the sh1t these two PS3 fangirls are spewing...
