Dear Microsoft Games Employees

by peterb

I know there are one or two employees of MS’s Xbox division who read (and hopefully enjoy) Tea Leaves, so allow me to take a moment to say:

Please find one of your mar-com people and get them to loan me an Xbox 360 and some games (Kameo?) so I can review them.

Thanks!

PS: And as long as I’m asking, how about a pony, too?

    I totally need to review madden NFL 06/360.

    All those new textures! Scanned faces! More motion capture!

    Loan, or “loan”?

    Surely you need the loan of a 46″ HDTV display as well.

    42 will be plenty. Thanks.

    I think that to TRULY review it they’d need to “loan” several machines out. You know, to test out the new Live functionality.

    (And Perfect Dark Zero looks most interesting to me. Never played the original, but it reminds me of No One Lives Forever and I LOVED that series…)

    You forgot to make the pony pink.

    Turn down the core system if you get offered one. To truly test the 360 you need to play good games, and with out the hard drive you can’t play halo 2.

    Yes, I am bitter about the release line up not being good enough to convinve me to buy one.

    When was the launch day lineup ever good enough to make you buy a box?
