That’s why I prefer Sony. Fully translated first-party games, from Uncharted to God of War and Sly 4, with Greek voice-overs, Greek support pages — they show that they care about a country which is Sony-faithful, but not Sony-exclusive. They try to win us. What does Microsoft do, in the gaming department (I’m using Windows)? They act like “it’s another country”. While I’m not implying we’re anything special compared to other countries, the company has to make you feel special if they expect you to buy from them, and that’s not fanboyism, it’s just logic. They have a Rewards program for Japan, and not for Greece? They sell nothing, from hardware to software, with the Xbox brand on it in Japan, and the Greek market is bigger for that console here, but hey, let’s reward them instead of both — at least.

That said, my expectations are low. A Kinect-based show, new apps, “your Xbox can hear you when you’re sobbing and give you a beer” stuff — all but gaming.
