| Khuutra said: That is not what I mean. "Niche" here isn't referring to independent development titles or even certain zombie genres like the point and click adventure. I mean things like RTSes, and FPSes, and the big super-budget games. I mean things like Microsoft Flight Simulator. |
Sorry, but that zombie is still alive and kicking.

There are 45 adventure game releases on the horizon (plus 15 without a confirmed publisher). Click on a title to see the game's complete details...
And then lets ask, how many fps games there are coming on this year? ;)
Consoles are just for mainstream games, if you try to make something niche for consoles you will get your ass kicked and sometimes even raped completely. On PC theres everything, even that mainstream crap(not only that, its even better on PC usually) is on PC. I personally like what Nintendo is doing with Wii. Its not stealing devs and games from PC. Its in its own world making everyone happy with mario & stuff. Good ol ninty. :)
(Still I do remember The Great Giana Sisters! Bad ninty, bad. :/)
