This just furthers my opinion that Xbox will be taken over by the "casual gamer" crowd soon. It's all related to the closure of the European "Inside Xbox" on console video service..

Oh, the chap does say they will continue to cater to the "core" gamer but without any specifics but specifically says that casual gamin is to become a larger part of the Xbox plan.. Makes me glad i have shifted back to PC gaming for the most part.

Anyway, LINKY

As do I, shame though.

As long as they keep making games that I enjoy combined with the benefits of pick up and play then I'll still own a console together with a PC.

You should see the chat sessions with the dumb as a bucket of turds people that I help as an Xbox Ambassador.

I think if i published them online I could give People Of Walmart a run for their money in the WTF/DUMB category.

They're trying like heck to carve into the Wii's profit share which will get even bigger when Nintendo debuts its next console this Christmas.

As long as the 360 library isn't saturated with crappy Kinect titles, like the Wii one is full of junk "waggle" games, I'm just like "meh".
