I don't think anybody has cared what Codemasters think in years.

The three key people all have the surname "Darling"

Just like the WW2 season of Blackadder!

Whatever happened to V-Rally.

@Kantor. Blackadder Goes Forth was set in WW1, not WW2.

this is exactly the reason Wii is winning the war

Mario Kart and SSBB is an example, and the reason why they are still selling that much



don't mind my username, that was more than 10 years ago, I'm a different person now, amazing how people change ^_^

It's funny. Because I owned every Nintendo system ever. The Wii is the only one Ive ever sold. In fact I was a big Nintendo fanboy before half way through GC life.

See for me Nintendo's first party titles have gone massively downhill. Mario Kart is very poor this gen, Galaxy isn't bad, but not great imo and what they have done to Donkey Kong is horrible. Wheres the decent Starfox games?

Personally. The last great Nintendo era was N64. GC went downhill, and Wii to me is basic gaming. No Wii game has been difficult in the slightest.

I'm sorry but I played Nintendo games when they were amazing. Wii games are a let down to an aged Nintendo fan like me. What the hell was Starfox Assault on GC. That game sucked hard. Come on Nintendo make your core games hardcore again. Mario never ever went around planets, it would be ok if the platforming was hard but it isn't.

Sorry I can think of a stack of games on my 360 more entertaining.

Stay on topic here, derailment, and making negative comments in a thread about codemasters liking the Wii can come off as trying to start problems.

I don't agree entirely. Make a good quality game on any platform and it'll be engrossing. The controls can help but other than Zelda, nothing comes to my mind that has sucked me in so far on the Wii.

On PS3 MGS4 sucked me in and to a lesser extent Killzone 2. On PC Fallout 3, CoD4 and Oblivion. If you make an engrossing game, the platform doesn't really matter.

Damn it! I knew it was either WW1 or WW2, but I could have sworn they were in trenches...wait, WWI had trenches, too.

Never mind.

codemasters should know any game is more engrossing than clive barkers jericho . . .

no more money for codemasters from me

but yeh tbh it depends on the game, tiger 10 and ea active have engrossed me. so did fallout 3.



Last year's game of the year turned out to be Silent Hill : Shattered Memories (online GOTY was COD 6).  This year's GOTY leader to me is Heavy Rain.
