It doesn't matter if it's any of the 6 games you've listed or any of the games on the Wii's Q2 list, I'd look upon them all with the same disdain whereas this seems to be descending into a debate about personally uninteresting hardcore games being somehow superior to personally uninteresting casual games, when the type of game (in the hardcore/casual sense) is irrelevant if I'm not buying anything either way. As it is right now, I've not bought a retail game this year on any platform, and of all the upcoming games I'm only interested in two games over all platforms between now and September. So if I buy those two that'll represent two purchases in the first 8 months of the year on all platforms, and you're going to tell me I'm not experiencing a drought just because there's a few 'notable' releases? Just try it. |
But that's a ridiculous standard for a statement like "____ is having a software drought". A similar statement would be like me saying "the Wii has no worthwhile games" because none of the games fit my tastes. If I go into a thread and say that I know for a fact that every Ninty fan will give me big lists of every game they can think of to prove I'm wrong, I'm just doing the same thing here. "HD Consoles have a drought in Q2 just like the Wii does", I call BS on that statement based on the list of games I just put up just like someone arguing against "The Wii has no games". Now if you want to say "HD consoles have no games I want in Q2" that's fine, but "HD consoles have no games in Q2" is a different statement that I will argue against.
