My interest level in this site is waning too. Largely it's because debate over who will win this generation is over and people have happily or grudgling (mostly the latter) accepted it'll be Wii and now there's more focus on who will be second but really there's not a whole lot of difference between 360 and PS3. Except for 1st party and the odd exclusive their library of games is identical and the overall experience similar (unlike the Wii) and whichever one claims 2nd, it'll end up being a very tight race so it won't really matter much except for some small bragging rights.
A lot of the more colourful members are gone.
All the major games that everyone was waiting for (and you poor PS3 fans have been waiting and waiting and waiting) are finally out or about to be out very shortly (GoWIII, FF XIII) except the ever elusive GT5. Otherwise we are now into sequelitis country and that's not nearly as exciting as seeing if X game will make a difference in the market. They won't anymore if they ever did.
And it's become a huge disappointment that the industry at large has been so fruitless in taking advantage of the huge new market Nintendo has captured. Instead they are all reverting back to what they know even though it'll be the death of many.
What I do like is the active (but getting progressively quieter) Nintendo community here. The reviews are really good. The high level of talk in the forums. Most site forums are just a mess of immature trolls and it's rare to see intelligent discussion happen so it's nice to have it here. Sales numbers but it's becoming pretty routine at this point of the generation. Maybe Arc/Natal will shake things up. Maybe.
