I'd say the main reason was that the Original XBOX was a failure, while the 360 wasn't.

The PS3 was 'cursed'.

Kasumi: Stolen Memory.

When the stupid reported woman told me that it made me more sad than any other planets being destroyed in the game.

BEKENSTEIN, people

It's all about Cimeas Shepard. It's been an honour old chap.

He was, but whether you were exploring the dingy shithole of Omega or the corporate outpost of Noveria, everyone wasn't calling you great and epic and the greatest most important person ever.

That feeling of science fiction space opera was lost in ME3. Because instead of feeling small in a vast galaxy, you were the most important person in the whole damn thing and everyone knew it.

And yet, we all know that if Microsoft shows a game, even just one game, at E3 that's absolutely incredible, that shows what next-gen can do (something Sony didn't), opinion will flip in a second.

Kotaku Presents: We want more views so we're stirring up some controversy by talking about the franchise everyone loves to hate. (or just loves)

I'm pretty sure there is a Dragon Age Tabletop RPG, actually.

This is what Mass Effect means to me. A universe of possibility, of hope. Of dusty alien bars and bright neon cities. Of strange uncharted worlds and the legacy of ancient civilisations.

With regards to backwards compatability, it would be cool if you could play all your xbox and xbox 360 games on the system, but ultimately I don't think a lot of players play xbox games on their 360 today, so it's not really a big deal for most.

Do we actually have efficient, reliable, non-dangerous and cost effective fusion reactors that are reasonably cheap to produce yet?

Jade Empire was an absolutely epic Xbox exclusive in 2005.

I pay for a sub so I don't deal with the reductions. The cash shop is purely cosmetic and all items on it are available for ingame money too on the GTN.

For a $300m gamble, going F2P with 500k subs is a failure.

I think he meant SWTOR, but the point still stands.

They thought the game would be done by 2011, didn't they?

You're flat out wrong.
