Games doing something really fresh, most aren't. A lot of games people list are games that have been done a dozen times already.
I try to imagine what it will be like looking back at this gen in 10 years. The real classics I remember from other gens are games that were kind of unique and everyone chatted about. This gen is mostly last gen games with HD graphics and little tweaks here and there.
People list games like MGS4, but it was just a wannabe third person shooter, not a very good one, and the online is worse than MGS3s. In 10 years most of this user generated content on LBP will probably be history, and the base game is short and easily boring. GTA IV is a massive dissapointment compared to previous main games, CoD4 won't be as recognised as it is now because by the end of the gen there will have been another 4 or 5 CoD games that bettered it. Killzone 2 just does nothing new at all to remember, its main point is graphics and it will be outdone and forgot by plenty of games come generation end.
I know SF IV is updating a game from 15 years ago so it won't just be a graphical updated of overused gameplay, it is sticking to a 2D arena when nearly every fighting game is 3D now so it will have that unique feel and so on. |
How does that line of reasoning preclude Wii Sports, exactly? You say "any platform", yet you only name HD games, and those only on HD consoles.
