Microsoft moves 960K Xbox 360 consoles, 750K Kinect units 'week of Black Friday'

Nov 30th 2011 1:46AM (Joystiq)
Well, I was also part of that. I went to Walmart and got the $199 Xbox Bundle. Picked it up for my brother. And thru the help from some friends, I was able to get Batman ($28) Forza 4 ($28) Dance Central 2 ($15) NBA 2K12 ($35-price match). Then I got a Kinect at Gamestop for ($70). I got everything I was looking for. On a side note though. The 10 pm opening Thursday was a mistake. The crowds were too huge. Its was not that busy last year. I went to the Rockport, TX Walmart. Some guy pulled a lady by her hair, hit her in the face, then took the games out of her hands. Thats how crazy it got. I hope they put the opening back at 5 am. At least the serious shoppers would show up. Not just any person. A little less traffic.

I wish they could remake Baku Baku for the Saturn. It was like Tetris but it was more fun. They used animals and food. It was very addicting. I should have never sold my original Saturn for $100. I had Guardian Heroes, Virtua Fighter Kids, Powerslave (had BattleTanks hidden), Baku Baku, Astal, Nights, Christmas Nights, Magic Night Rayearth, Panzer Dragoon, Panzer Dragoon Zwei, and a few others. ALL FOR $100. : (

Rumor: Project Natal priced at $150; bundled with Arcade SKU for $300

I think people are too freaked out by the price. $149 is not that bad considering that you only have to buy one piece of equipment. Ask a Wii user how much they have spent on their motion controllers. Remember that system can support four controllers at once. Same thing with Sony's Move. $100 for only one controller. I wonder if the average PS3 user that buys Move will only buy just one motion controller. Just sayin. People start ranting without seeing the bigger picture.

Now you'll have to buy Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing

Man, I wish for Shenmue 3. I still have 1 & 2.

Wow. I feel really bad for the PS3. I mean I love my 360 but I like have the competition. When 2 companies compete for your dollars, the consumer wins. When there is only 1, then you take what you are given. And the Wii is a toy. Not a game machine.

Xbox 360 sales reach 28M, Xbox Live garners 17M users

I am one of those. Uh w00t!?

Don't waste you time with Assasin's Creed. It's repetitive. Way repetitive. I think you should play Bioshock as your first game. And Portal on the side for a change of pace. Then Braid. All brilliant games.

Microsoft: Black Friday Xbox 360 sales trump PS3 3-to-1

Dec 2nd 2008 10:08AM (Joystiq)
Well, I went shopping on Black Friday. And the hottest sytem that was moving was the 360. (I think it was the GH III) bundles). I could easily find a Wii. The Best Buy store was on the tv, and you could see a huge stacks of Wii's and people were walking by them and not picking them up. I went to a Walmart and it was the same thing. And all I heard the customers ask the clerks that if they had any more 360 systems.
