Thumbs down what the hell is going on with Microsoft!

First they had a lack luster E3,then Moore quits,then they cancel X07! Recalls in Australia,and pretty much admitted that all 360's are broken! What the hell are they doing! Its seems like they are slowly breaking down,which sucks since they seemed to be doing well this year(game wise). Then there is the hole 3 year warranty issue,which was a great thing for the customer,but with over a billion in losses from that?? Are they even going to start making a profit on the Xbox 360?

Now as for this year, there are allot of great games coming out! What about the future,nothing at E3,canceled X07. I don't expect them to have a big showing in Tokyo They need their own big show right now,especially because all the bad news they are generating as of late!

You now what happened to the last company Moore left! Could this be a bad omen!

here's the deal: you have to realize that at this very moment, the three major companies are all acting very very retarded. this is amplified by the amount of people on the internet blogging and message board posting about the stupidity and every single piece of news turns into an atomic bomb (note IGN's ironic front page). seriously, why peter moore leaving is important is beyond me. he did a lot, but c'mon, he's not jesus.

it's all about the games and that really all that matters at this point and to make a huge fuss indicates that one need to go outside. Sony is in trouble, not MS. They could replace 360s for years and still be swimming in the mooonay. This is why they can a afford a three year warranty which is honestly a better warranty than a lot of appliances and cars. you know, things generally more important.

since when was X07 cancelled?

edit: nvm i have a link: http://squadxp.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=3636&mode=& order=0&thold=0

whatever, they didnt have on in 2004 and Halo 2 came out so i dont see the big deal.

I think the only real problem they have is their hardware. They obviously screwed up big with the first bunches of consoles. Microsoft isn't a hardware company, they obviously suck at it. They need to get someone else to create their consoles or something.

At E3, I don't think they really wanted to show any new games because that would take away from Halo 3. That's a huge title for them, so by talking about new games, that just draws the attention away from Halo 3.

Peter Moore leaving is pretty weird, he says it is just because of family, but idk... It doesn't seem like a huge deal though.

I didn't know about X07 and Australia though, doesn't seem like a big deal though.

Well making a fuss ,that being good or bad,gets people talking! Which is a good thing,especially around here! Isn't that what forums are about anyway? It just seems that M$ is kind of being really sloppy,business wise, as of late. That type of thing always bugs the hell out of me, who matter, who it is!

Now I'm going to go(shivers) to this outside you speak of? I hope there's no god damn skunks out there today!!!

just keep this in mind, no matter how bad it gets for microsoft, they still arent as dumb as the people running sony entertainment. hell, sony itself. they actually used to be a reliable brand but they are slipping severely and dont know how to help itself.

at least nintendo righted itself with the wii because they knew how to play the unique yet accessible angle. it was genius when you look back at it really. all they have to do is not mess up.

Microsoft in general is going down hill.

I would say that Vista probably represents their tombstone.
