what is shovelware?

 

Poorly developed software which still has a ton of glitches, or it's a poorly ported title from another system and/or a game made in the fraction of the time usually needed to develop and polish game for public release.

 

I. e. every madden tittle inbetween their 'updates'. IMO.

Correct, too bad now adays it seemt the   quote HARDCORE quote label anything that they don't like as being shovelware.  

hardcore people are just whiny selfish babies

 

Completely agree, I think personally a good 80% of the games out there are crap. Many of them sell millions of units but offer anything new to their genre, in my opinion only games which offer a new or greatly improved experience really count as non shovelware games.

Mario Galaxy

Madworld

Okami

Mario 64

Zelda OOT

FFVII

2k football series

Those titles offered something new and elevated their genre, since then most games, even the really "hardcore" ones just try to imitate their greatness.
