By Nick De Bruyne

I must admit that since spending an oddly large amount of time playing the heck out of the Playstation Move Table Tennis mode in Sports Champions, I am pretty interested in just about anything that even remotely reminds me of it. Concerns have arisen due to reports that the Microsoft Kinect technology is not exactly up to scratch when it …

Bungie’s been delivering new Halo experiences at a pretty slow, but steady pace. In the 5 years that the Xbox 360 has been around, they’ve released two bona-fide Halo games; Halo 3 and Halo Reach (With ODST technically an expansion). Now that they’re no longer the studio behind Halo, Microsoft and 343 industries – the company they created to step …

Halo Reach Review – A Noble Effort For Noble Team

 The Halo franchise has always gone hand in hand with Microsoft’s Xbox brand. The first in the series boosted the Xbox from a new contender to a must-have, while the second Halo helped Microsoft launch the Xbox live service with ease. It’s a no-brainer then that Bungie’s swan song as a first party developer for Microsoft would be regarded as the …

Well, this is entertaining. It was mentioned in yesterday’s ION, but it was too amusing to not write about. Privates, the game about going into a woman’s vagina/buttocks to shoot things (And Geoff’s GOTY) has been denied access to Microsoft’s Xbox Live Indie Channel due to its content. This is, naturally, completely unsurprising given you’re a condom-wearing marine shooting things …

So Microsoft, well Aaron Greenberg, came out earlier this year and said they expected to sell around 3 million Kinects over this silly season. Some people at the time scoffed at that calling Kinect little more than an Eyetoy. Now some respected analysts have come out and stated they also expect Microsoft to sell over 3 million copies and yet …
