Hey, I'm not saying you can't be dissapointed. Not at all. I fully understand most people expected and hoped for a 3rd person shooter.

But what I really can't stand is the attitude that people are emailing EA and making a petition based on nothing. The trailer looks great, the game is being made by the AAA team that made the HD game and a game like Killer 7 or Sin and Punishment proves that on rails doesn't mean plain lightgun shooting.

There's something really wrong when an announcement like described above actually leads to forums (cause it's not only here) exploding. Dissapointment: yes, anger: wtf? I really mean it that in the old days people were just having fun playing the games they received, nowadays there's some form of entitlement and drive to a single genre. And the strange thing is that Nintendo fans, those that should love new and original gaming experiences (ever since NES mind you), are complaining the loudest.

And yes, I do realize I'm lucky for being able to afford a Wii and a 360, so the need for a 3rd person shooter is not that big for me.

 

 

-Killer 7 and Sin & Punishment are good in their own way but come on these games sold poorly for a reason; they have limited appeal and so does an on rails verison of Dead Space.

-I like new and original experiences from video games; thats why I wanted to experience Dead Space TPS game with the Wii remote not Dead Space on rails.

-I can afford both a Wii and 360, I would just rather play a game like that with the Wii remote for superior control and gladly take the graphical downgrade, which isn't that obvious if devs know what their doing.

-This would be just as bad as Microsoft announcing that Gears of War 3 will be on rails, it's a piss poor idea and the news would go over like a lead balloon.  The decision makers at EA need to be canned.
