I remember a post on here, I believe a news post, that was full of trolling of this nature, but yeah ninty fans did the same.  the second part what I meant was the superiority complex we see where HD fanboys deflate a game as shovelware and hype of anything they deem "hardcore" and anything on the wii as shovelware.  case and point, wii owners were stoked to see Tenchu 4 on the wii, HD fanboys ran in and cried "shovelware!", "cash in", "tired franchise" etc....had it been on the HD consoles it would have been a different story.

 

I loved SotC btw, hopefully this game is half as good.

I'm not so sure, the last few Tenchu games have been ballz and skepticism would have happened no matter what console it was on. I remember that thread and most people initially didn't realize it was being made by the original Tenchu team and not the Developers who have made the last couple. Once people learned of this they backed off.

But it's not like marginalizing a game is native to only the HD crowd. There have been a few cases where a HD game with pretty graphics comes around and a Wii owner pipes up "pfft, doesn't matter how nice it looks till we see some gameplay". (even though that is true)

 

 

I hear ya, this was especially prevalent in all the anti-LBP threads.
