Maybe you should have listened to what he said:
Rogue Squadren III is still one of the prettiest games on any console yet it plays like a carbon copy of Rogue Squadren II which played like a clone copy of Rogue Squadren for the N64 ... The fact that Factor 5 seemed incapable of producing new and interesting gameplay is why Ben lost respect for them |
And by all claims Lair is once again a clone of the formula they have used since the N64 with a new coat of paint. Yeah, I completely agree with Ben about losing respect for Factor5.
Personally for me the concern isn't really that Nintendo isn't communicating well with developers (we already knew that), but the statement that "once we figured out what it was we immediately began development." I'm not sure developers really understand that the Wii is not filled with nothing but casual "market expansion" gamers, and they are going to have to learn this the hard way.
