This sounds like the exact plot of Life on Mars.

Forgetting falling revenues; this is the peak of the music game industry.

I'm not a fan of the top half of the shell being plastic on the inside... it just looks messy and inconsistent.

Two FPS developers walk into a bar.

One says "I'm making a game about Vietnam."

The other says "Me too."

It's super awkward.

It's pretty sexy, but I must say, I'm still a big fan of the white, curvy aesthetic of the original.

I'm always surprised by how well Eminem songs fit Call of Duty trailers... the MW2 trailer with 'Til I Collapse was epic.

I can't help but worry that Bobby Kotick's personal hygiene is going to go to hell when he starts taking baths in all his money.

Oh yeah, you're definitely right in that it's the same in principle, but just by virtue of being a peripheral it's going to get less media attention than a new console would. Then again, you're also right that they haven't started marketing it to the masses yet, so maybe it really doesn't matter.

@Blaggers

Fair enough, but a new console and a new thing you can buy for your old console aren't completely comparable. There's already a camera for the 360, after all.

Maybe it's just me, but when they've been using the name Natal for at least a year and when public awareness is already low, changing it six months before release seems like a bad idea to me...
