Nope, I don't. I've always been a traditional gamer while they never played games. We've always been "different" you see. My point was that the word"fun" seemed to have become exclusive to the wii so I started a campaign to set things straight ala this thread. I also played games back in the day but then I was more casual. I got more interested in gaming as it got more "complicated" lol. I tend to favor complicated things. This is why my sig hails the MGS saga as my favorite game storyline. I was trying to point out that the ps3 and 360 are also "fun" to their regular users not just the wii. Its obvious to everyone that the wii has introduced more gamers with its new control scheme. However it hasn't redefined what "fun" is. Fun is still an activity thats "enjoyable" which makes it entirely up to the doer of the activity. Hence "fun" is not a term that should be used to blanket anything because there would always be individuals who don't find it "fun"

Still missing the point...
Do you like reading long books with small writing?
There's very few people who could call that "fun"...They might really enjoy it but "fun" is not the correct word to use. (You don't seem to understand this extremely basic philosophy from what you say?).
Most people find that doing something ACTIVE is considered "fun"...
Haven't you ever heard people say "kids these days should get outdoors more and have some wholesome fun"?
The Wii acomplishes this to an extent, indoors on a games console.
....I might start a topic in a minuite discussing "dust" and "fluff", why is dust called "dust"...Can small bits of fluff be called "dust"...Does all fluff have to be "fluffy"...Does fluff only exist inside?
Is there a difference between fluff from clothes and that fluff that accumilates on the floor? Where does fluff come from?
Who cares? Nobody, is there a point? No...Could I construct a post that would make it sound like there is a point to answer....quite possibly!!!!
