If you followed our posts, you'd realize that he brought up the points as a counter aginst my arguement that games like: "game parties", "beer pongos", "mario does triple jump", "Barbie is moonwalking" etc. seem to be the future of the wii. He insinuated that endless sequels to sci-fi shooters and traditional adventure games that plague the ps360 are worse than the wii's future line up. So I had to show him that in that case, the wii line up is 100% craptastic with respect to the hardcore because all they have is sequels as well.

 

I didn't read it that way. You were saying that 3rd parties are following Nintendo's strategy of ignoring hard core gamers. He replied by saying that PS360 developers mostly do boring non-innovating sequels. Both are generalizations, but yours is actually more wrong than his.

 

Exactly how is mine more wrong than his? Its really too bad that my point refers to the future so we really just have to wait and see but he's is just flat out wrong. He may considersomething like halo 3 "boring", I do as well. but the fact that 8 mil people beg to differ proves that there are tons who consider it far from boring (I hate to be defending halo here). Also, I'm willing to bet that he probably loves one of the following: SMG, SSBB, Metroid, Zelda, fire Emblem, etc. both halo and those series are nothing but sequels so it just shows his bias.
