Cool Metroid Prime: Coming to an Xbox Near You

It's right there on the list.

http://windowsmedia.com/mg/games.asp

I think somebody in Redmond was thinking wishfully, but it's still pretty funny. But since they're probably going to change the list any minute now, I also took a screenshot.

Lol. Nintendo's strategic marketing is beyond my comprehension.

Have you clicked on the Preview link beneath Metroid Prime? My connection is a little slow, so I just was curious as to what it would do.

FALSE ADVERTISING! FALSE ADVERTISING!

Maybe they just saw the graphics and got confused.

BTW the preview is just a GSLive thing. Nothing really.

Damn, I was hoping Mecrosoft "accidentally" uploaded a preview movie where at the end it was the same as the end to the XBox commercials.(with the person saying "For A, Y, and Z, there is no power greater than X")

This is the biggest scandle of false advertising since I went after the people behind 'The NeverEnding Story'

Was it the gt forums that posted the thing a few months back about the xbox "C" stick?

Either way, a few months ago there was a page on www.xbox.com that mentioned the controls for some game (a port obviously) and someone had just copy/pasted the info into the page without reading it first. It made mention of the gamecube's C stick.
