That's like saying lions are bad for the eco-system because they eat all the smaller animals. You're an idiot to look at the world this way. I'm guessing you were bullied by tougher kids in school when you were young. And now you're leaving on such an overdramatical note.

Grow a pair, sir.


You're statement beautifully self-embarassing.  In an ecosystem, if one element of it is unbalanced, it does wreck havock.  GTA is not like a lion, but more like a human being that is responsible for wipeing out endless number of other species while destroying our own planet.  Or like a Hemlock tree that grows large and toxic, making the soil below unsuitable for other plant life.  Should Rockstar not make GTA as good as possible?  No, of course not, but that doesn't mean it's not destroying its own environment through excellent evolution.

Then tell me how exactly is GTA V destroying the gaming eco-system? Yes, it's had a huge budget and is extremely succesful. That doesn't mean games with a small budget don't have a chance to succeed. There are countless ways to be succesful. GTA V is just one of them. When the gaming eco-system is changing, people will adapt, the industry will adept. In any good eco-system, it's adapt or die. The rise of the indie market is a healthy example of this.

The only people saying games like GTA V are bad for the industry are people disliking big blockbuster games. I like original content from smaller devs as well. But they will always be there. How do you think Rockstar started out?
