Millennium on 14 April 2010
The previous iterations came in at about 2.5% of their consoles' respective playerbases, including the 1+2 collection that came out on the PS3. GoW3 is doing about twice that, and it's still pulling top-5 sales, which is frankly phenomenal. It won't break 3 million, but it's managed to make a much deeper impact on its console's fanbase than any of the previous games in the series, and that's an accomplishment in and of itself.
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.
