Video games in general. I don't know, maybe its my age (25), but this is the first year I've looked at the industry with as much cynicism as I do. I feel like we're moving more and more towards several franchises dominating sales while other games struggle to even see mediocre success.
I don't own a Wii, but it's almost disappointing how brave developers became in trying to transition "hardcore" game genres over to the system and found little to no success. Mad World, The Conduit, and some others were awesome games that just did not do as well as they should have sales wise, especially considering the install base of the system. The Wii was in some ways a great step forward for gaming, and I'd rather it not take two steps back now.
The abuse of meta-critic has become rather disheartening as well. Maybe its just me, but I absolutely hate the "This game scored below an 85 on meta, its terrible!" vitriol that spews from fanboy mouths. Does it matter?
Also Resident Evil 5 rubbed me the wrong way. It had a little too much "Hollywood" , if that makes any sense.
