This perceived "dumbing down" just because a game is on a console is BS and a lame excuse. Im sure Dragon Age was stolen a whole bunch too.

It's not jusbecause it's on a console, it's because it has console mechanics. The UI, the movement, the selections, the dialogs, the gameplay, the options, the moddability, etc. etc. When a game is on a console some, ad usually all, of those are dumbed down to fit the lowest common denominator, that being the console.

As for Dragon Age, it was just barely dumbed down for consoles so it sold well.

One last point, you cannot steal a video game unless you physically ran in the store and took the CD off the shelf.

not paying for someone elses IP and Copywritten work is stealing.

Uh, no it is not. It's copyright infringement, and it's such only a a handful of countries.

As for being spoiled, I guess I am spoiled if I expect developers to release better games as time passes, not worse. I guess I am also spoiled that I won't be playing such games and they won't be seeing my money if that is the case. I guess being a good consumer is now considered being spoiled, sad sad day indeed.
