It's (potentially) affecting you due to the fact that they aren't focusing on actually retaining any focus on first party core game development.Originally Posted by OmegaFenix22
But MS doesn't release the games I play. Except maybe for Halo... All the other titles are developed by independed companies mostly even published by other companies... How is MS catering to the ever growing casual market affecting me playing Assassin's Creed, Brink, Deus Ex, Rage, NSF or any other title?
I am still not seeing how it affects me as a player.
What's stopping you from playing "Assassin's Creed, Brink, Deus Ex, Rage, NSF or any other title" on the PS3? Apart from personal preference of course? There's nothing defining the 360 at this point apart from Gears/Halo and now Kinect.
Perhaps my whole rant is more a reflection on the status of the industry at this point than me "mouthing off at MS". However, where other platforms have quite a number of exclusives lined up for the core gamer, MS appear to be focusing on the stroke-my-pony-consumer.
