Sequels :)

My kids play games. Ergo, they are gamers. And I will gladly play with them, and enjoy it every bit as much as I will enjoy Halo Anniversary.

The old definition of gamer doesn't work anymore. Thanks to Farmville, Angry Birds, Words with Friends, etc.

@captainjy
Kinect + Star Wars
Kinect + Disney
Kinect + Sesame Street

Three huge properties.

@theBrayn If I could, I would have taken home a copy of the game from E3. Granted, my perspective is a little more family oriented than say, the rest of the gaming media, but Kinect Disneyland was one of my favorites from the show this year.

@Spunky Monkey 190906 Got no answer for you :)

What this does highlight, rather than a focus on Kinect, is that Microsoft is coming up dry on first party titles. They have Gears, they have Halo, they have Forza and they have Fable. Beyond that, there's just not that much in the stable.

Meanwhile, Sony can roll out Uncharted, God of War, Gran Turismo, LittleBigPlanet, Killzone, Motorstorm, Wipeout, Twisted Metal, etc.

Microsoft would benefit from being able to in-house produce the next Gears or Halo. Instead, as we saw at E3, they started off with 40 minutes of third party multiplatform titles before they even bothered with a console exclusive.

@Theneverendingsoda There's more money in being an entertainment device for everyone that just catering to the core market. Which is why you see more XBox Live entertainment options and Kinect titles.

Unfortunately, it does feel like its coming at the expense of core gamers.

Folks, keep in mind that Microsoft sold a lot of Kinect sensors and systems to families. Who, based on my own personal experience with Kinect Disneyland Adventures at E3, should love the game.

It's not for Halo fans, its not for Modern Warfare fans. It's for gamers like my four year old daughter who will not want to turn it off. Same as Sesame Street. It's nice to see high quality titles for families along side the solid core titles.
