Let me know when you can play a poster,a TV commercial, or a label on a soda can. The last time I checked there wasn't any multiplayer in 12 oz of caramel colored water...unless you count indoor water sports.
"Dont drink Sodas MS should partner with Gatorade being that Kinect is suppose to be about fun and fitness. "
Thats not a bad idea but MS and pepsi have been working together since they did the MD Fuel drink for Halo 3 back in 2006. Makes is easy for them to go to pepsi and say "hey we got this new thing coming out called kinect slap it on the side of some cans for us"
I like Coke better. But with the push for ASSpertame in all of these drinks, they taste worse all of the time. That trash will give you cancer just as fast as the effects of sugar intake.
jonondaspot I might of shown a lack of originality but you shown a complete lack of intelligence. At least I was able to add something to the topic. All you were able to do was show up and add some lame ass trolling. So why not do everyone a favor and next if you cant say anything intelligent just keep your mouth shut.
Asspartame is the devil, dunno about cancer but it has been clinically proven to give or at least advance MS (multiple sclerosis), which is not good. Personally I dont drink any fizzy drinks as they give me heartburn and don't quench your thirst anyway.
Please refrain from drinking the diet versions of these colas since I've heard that the artificial sweeteners they use is carcinogenic. I'm a Coke guy but I'm not allowed with anything sweet these days cause of a certain stomach ailment.
Saw this coming a mile away. Sony, again, you suck at marketing compared to Microsoft. Seriously, up the f'n game or something at the least. Microsoft is cleaning your house like nobody's business in the U.S.
Edit: *sighs* Really guys? You don't know the difference between marketing and sales? Marketing and product comparisons?
@below: You want to compare everything but this gens PS3 to the 360 and yet don't realize that Microsoft corners the market on OS and Office software, something Sony can't do with a single product at all. And, yeah, this is just completely false:
***And Sony's 10 year old PS2 is almost outselling the 360 in 2010. ***
Here's a dose of reality:
PS Moves sold in first month: ~2.5 million. Kinects sold in first two weeks ~1.3 million.
Advertising of Kinect seen so far? Commercials galore at an almost constant rate and during high profile shows, Burger King, massive NY advertisements, Pepsi.
Advertising of Move seen so far? Commercials... that have gone bye bye and are no longer remembers. Oh, and online videos saying why they went with Move over solely camera-based tech.
Honestly, if you guys don't know what marketing means, then there's no helping you to come to terms with how powerful Microsoft is. Do you know that in the last two weeks I've seen the WP7 in more than four different TV shows already as product placement, and the thing just released!
"Sony, again, you suck at marketing compared to Microsoft."
105 million PS1s 150 million PS2s 65 million PSPs
and the 100-200 dollar more expensive PS3 has been outselling the 360 every year it has been on the market and has dumped the 360 into last place in worldwide sales.
And Sony's 10 year old PS2 is almost outselling the 360 in 2010.
***You're quoting a fake sales number from vgchartz and you think anyone is going to do anything but laugh at what you have to say?***
Don't recall anyone lambasting them when their #s for Move were fairly accurate...
You guys need to wake up and smell a bit of reality. Kinect is going to move more than the Move this Holiday season because of Microsoft marketing. Sure, they're not going to make a profit, but at least they're pushing the hell out of it instead of the ghost town of deals and news we've heard from Sony since the Move's release.
I don't care about sales, but imo Sony commercials are much better than Xbox commercials.
The Kevin Butler spokesman is pretty genius, and I loved the "do you want it, do you need it" montages they did a couple years ago.
I think MS probably advertises it's games better (Halo and Gears commercials are pretty awesome), but those are singular products. Sony seems to be better at advertising its brand. Kevin Butler commercials are way better than the Kinect BS, but I supposed they are aimed at different target markets. A better comparison might be the "Jump In" commercials from a while back, which still didn't resonate with me personally.
It is only my personal opinion, but I am in the target market.
...and yes I intentionally failed to mention the floating baby ads...
"PS Moves sold in first month: ~2.5 million. Kinects sold in first two weeks ~1.3 million."
Umm, as far as I know, 2 weeks is half of a month, and the difference between 4 weeks and a full month is 2-3 days, and 1.3*2 = 2.6. If Kinect goes at the same rate as it did in the first 2 weeks, it'll hit 2.6 million. Obviously, by then, Move would also sell a little bit more too in that time span. Considering the Move doesn't exactly have a $500 million advertising budget, I'd say that's pretty good.
That was definitely done entirely because of the Sony deal. Still, imo Cola > Pepsi
