Microsoft has announced this morning that over 1 million Kinect sensors have been sold to consumers world wide in the first 10 days of sales and that they are on target to break 5 million before the end of the year. Now a million is a lot but maybe I have just become jaded by the huge figures that titles …

Ninja Theory’s Enslaved: Odyssey to the West is a good game. Nick liked it a lot, and the Xbox 360 version has a Metacritic score of 82%. It seems, however, that positive press reviews do not always equate into sales targets. The game’s publisher, Namco Bandai, had hoped to shift 1 million units during the first month of release.

As evidenced by the latest NPD figures the once insurmountable Wii seems to be in a steady decline – while …

Both HD consoles released newer, slimmer – and debatably, sexier – versions this generation. The PS3 slim was a sales powerhouse; Many people reluctant to pick up the PS3 (probably because they didn’t get that 2nd job) at first were happy to open their wallets for the newer, slimmer and more importantly cheaper PS3.
