Wii Sports dominates Bafta awards

No, I compared it to the status of those games based on the fact that all of the games received mixed reviews, at best.

Superman 64 would have much worse reviews than Wii Sports. Wii Sports is fun, but really, you get a week at best of fun, and then you want an actual game to play.

But seriously, this argument is like trench warfare. I fire a gun, you throw a grenade, a land mine goes off, someone throws a canister of mustard gas, some guys makes a suicide run, and yet we don't get anywhere at all.

Well, thats your opinion.

I have almost had my Wii for 12 months now - and we STILL regularly play WiiSports - both with new people to the house, and also on our own just for fun.

Its easily had more game time than anything else on our Wii, its easily had more people play it - and its probably responsible for selling 3 or 4 Wii consoles- just from our house.

...

I just completely disagree with YOUR definition of what is a game. You are so caught up in your "hardcore-ness", that you completely miss the point of what a videogame is supposed to be. So what if it doesn't appeal to you personally?

I pretty much *hate* Guitar Hero - but I still think its a great game. Halo & Bioshock don't really appeal to me, but I credit both of them as excellent games.

Its not that we are being sensitive -  I'm just calling you out as WRONG on this one. WiiSports deserves every award it gets, and in many ways it is a strong candidate for GOTY across the board.
