it boils down to the market catering only to the hardcore gamer was going to die----face it look at the games and the press they were receiving---we gamers were starting to go the way of punks and bad kids for playing games---We were not attracting enough new blood to keep the family going

Enter the Wii---now gamming is becoming the mainstream not the hardcore---because of this people don’t feel as threatened ---mainly the "hardcore*"gamers still do--

Games are starting to become a family idea--its no longer hey i was able to rotate my joystick while pressing X, ^, O,O and i jumped on that prostitutes head -it’s now hey i waved my arm and i hit a tennis ball

Which do you think is going to attract more non-gamers?

*anyone else think of Harold and Kumar when they here hardcore--you know those mountain dew guys that are all screams and slim jims---yep that’s god hardcore example--epically when they listen to 80's soft rock mix tapes in their "extreme" hardcore off roader--complete with hang gliders
