MICROSOFT'S supreme leader Bill Gates has told MTV that the Xbox360 will make people who play with themselves a minority.

He said that by putting more devices through Xbox Live will make those who prefer solitary gaming a minority, particularly as Vole draws in both men and women and people of all ages. He thinks that gaming will be much more of a social thing.

He added that Nintendo Wii and PlayStation 3 motion sensor controllers were not really going to be market winners.
