Casual games = Soulless games. Wii is not for me.

Lets think first what do you remember from your earlier games.

Remember when Meryl got shot by Sniper Wolf in Metal Gear Solid?

Remember when Sephiroth killed Aeris in Final Fantasy VII?

Or not stuff like that, stuff like in games like Grandia where you have that weird happy face trought your whole adventure?.

These games and many more have changed my personality.

 

You've built a shrine around the games that you liked when you first started gaming and now you have an emotional investment in their descendents. This inclines you toview anything that is in competition with your enshrined games in a negative light.

I'm guilty of this too. I grew up during the NES and SNES generations and I viewed the Playstation and Playstation 2. To this day I can't help but feel that Sony products seem to be plagued by a sort of corporate blandness. I know it's not rational but I can't help but feel that kids raised in the Sony era lack appreciation for the things that made games great during my childhood.

 

That's probably why so many forum gamers on the net failed to automatically like the Wii, which is just like the PS and PS2, the best selling console in their respective gens.
