I'm 40, i play for more than 30 years, and for me, style >>> realism any day, any time...

And i don't read the opinions of "seasoned" gamers and critics anymore: they're so out of touch, obsessed with their own little "fame" and their supposedly "deep" opinions...

If i want to know if a game's good, i check the feedback from the best VGC members, who share similar tastes in gaming, and i also read Nintendo Life: a site with well written reviews, and scores i agree with most of the time, if not always...

All the other so-called "journalists" may just go play to "who's got the most hardcore d*** out there", but it will be without me... i don't need to know if they give Mario Kart Wii or NSMBWii a 5/10 or a 9/10: their opinions are worthless, and not "seasoned" but actually very childish and immature...

And yes, even when it comes to games i'll buy for my kids, cos' these hypocrites never REALLY think of THAT userbase when they're writing their reviews: they just care about their own tastes, and their own "hardcore" bias...

I think this points to the great disconnect between many gaming "experts" and many Wii gamers.

Wii gamers want to play and have fun. We know the difference between reality and games -- because many of us have real lives. That does not appear to be the case with those who feel the high point of gaming is to be in a game with a brown background holding a firearm.
