Because his predictions have been so braindead for the past several years that I'm starting to seriously wonder if he's deliberately trolling the industry. Likewise with this: I'm no PS3 fan, but even I can tell that Heavy Rain is going to be a smash hit among the PS3 fanbase. If the PS3 were a game, it would be Heavy Rain; that's how well it captures what the console is about. And the fanbase will eat it up like candy.
Complexity is not depth. Machismo is not maturity. Obsession is not dedication. Tedium is not challenge. Support gaming: support the Wii.

What do I hate about modern gaming? I hate tedium replacing challenge, complexity replacing depth, and domination replacing entertainment. I hate the outsourcing of mechanics to physics textbooks, art direction to photocopiers, and story to cheap Hollywood screenwriters. I hate the confusion of obsession with dedication, style with substance, new with gimmicky, old with obsolete, new with evolutionary, and old with time-tested.
There is much to hate about modern gaming. That is why I support the Wii.
