It looks like Marvelous sold better than expected amounts for both versions of No More Heroes: Heroes' Paradise. The PS3 version sold 27,000 units, with the Xbox 360 version at 20,000 units. Sales targets called for, respectively, 24,000 and 15,000 units.

Molyneux

Lionhead boss and creative director of Microsoft Game Studios Europe, Peter Molyneux, has moved to clear up the confusion over the status of Kinect project Milo And Kate.

Speaking at the GameHorizon conference today he said comments made by Xbox director of product management Aaron Greenberg – in which the exec referred to the project as a tech demo that wasn’t planned for release as a game – were misinformed.

"Milo has been a hard thing for us to do and a hard thing to describe and I’m sure there are people in the audience here thinking, 'a living boy, what's he talking about?' It's the same for the people in Redmond.

“He hasn't seen Milo for over a year,” Molyneux said of Greenberg. “He's on the PR team, he came out with a stock answer. It's being worked on, it's a full game. I feel sorry for him," he added in a sympathetic tone. "If he had seen the latest of what Milo was he'd realise that wasn't true.

“I’d love to give you a demonstration [of Milo] but I can't,” Molyneux said. “Everything to do with Kinect has to go through the highest level. I will be showing it in two weeks' time at a conference called TED. All this technology we showed at E3 does work. It really allows people to connect.”

Is Greenburg higher up the MS foodchain?

Sega trying very hard to kill Yakuza, the one franchise that is making good money for them.

5 Yakuzas. Is that home console? So PSP one makes 6?

That's a lot of games in a short period. I remember when Yakuza 3 was being made, then suddenly a Yakuza prequel or something was announced, then Yakuza 4 was announced. Then Yakuza PSP was announced. And now Yakuza 5 is announced.

Damn.

What other franchises can Sega rely on when they burn Yakuza out?

Mario & Sonic, they will need to invent more Olympics for it.

A proper Sonic usually does well for them.

Molenuix thinks he is higher. Its a lie like everything else he says.
