Microsoft disses Nintendo

Guess they are pissed Blinx is not the Mario killer they thought it would be?

MS has a history of doing this.

I remember when xbox magazine dogged Nintendo for delaying the Gamecube 2 weeks and then MS turned right around and did the same thing.

Wouldn't Blinx have to be released before it can compete with Mario?

Blinx is cool ... the timeshifting seems a little too gimmicky though, and not really enough can be done with it. Sigh.

But damn, is it ever good looking.

Edit ... erm ... so I've heard ... not that I'd have access to a copy or anything ...

The flash won't play for me for some reason...

 

[Placer14]

Boo....i'll check it out later. But this is suck. Microsoft doesn't know how to let their product speak for themselves that they got to cause comotion in the game industry. That's such crap. Man, screw M$....


ARG!!

My bad. Amazon had the release date listed as the 11th.

Pity, though. The game had a fantastic concept. It's a shame that it may not have lived up to it.

ROFL

...and a suck-ass one at that. Do they employ MS people to do those or did they hire some 3rd party?

IGN gave it an 8.8: IGN: Blinx

IGN gives everything 3 points more than it deserves.

Looking at the screen shots from the review, does that game look gay or what?

Here is a quick and sloppy video capture for those who can not watch the flash version: MarioPansyFlash.WMV [3.5MB]

Let me know what kind of bandwidth you get on the DL.

LOL! That was great.

Super Mario Sunshine was a total dud from what I've heard. I remember back in the day, when it used to be a major gaming event that a Mario game was coming out. I don't think anyone even noticed Super Mario Sunshine.

I got my X-Box at home and I'm going home from college next week, so I will definitely pick up a copy of Blinx
