A new demographic for Xbox Live Arcade
As you may have noticed, we at Xbox 360 Fanboy are fans of Xbox's own Major Nelson, and so we were naturally quite sad to hear he was ill over the Christmas period. However, every cloud has a silver lining, and Major's brief convalescence has brought with it an interesting lesson in demographics.
Major blogs that "I pretty much spent a majority of my conscious time with the Xbox Live Arcade Games, since they were easy to jump in and out of as I nodded off under my prescriptive based consciousness." -- it seems that the quick-fix nature of the Live Arcade games is perfect for those feeling under the weather. Also, although most Live Arcade games do require some brainpower, they don't require full-on all-cylinders-firing citrus-sharp cognition, and are a lot easier to get to grips with if you're in a medication-induced stupor.
So, next time your significant other, child or pet is ill, why not try distracting them with Live Arcade titles rather than daytime television?
