I feel a MASSIVE change in the gaming industry

I think its more wishful thinking on the part of PC/360/PS3 enthusiasts that the Wii's third party support won't expand or grow. It's basically the same rationale embraced in common Wii denial that tries to dictate, "The Wii is not a threat to my interest in gaming because it will always get games that are casual/different/unique/spin-offs/etc so I'll always have the real games on the consoles I like."

Notice how Legend11's posts since the Holiday season began have begun to shift from 360 news and updates to naysaying the competition. He's grown tactful in his art over the months he's been here, he knows how to disguise a jab as a constructive comment and he knows how to ruffle feathers and push people's buttons. But make no mistake, earlier he saw the 360's software dominance as more than enough to quell his contempt for the Wii, but now he's made to remember the feeling he's experienced before when the Wii plowed through the competition early 07 and began to grow with no sign of stopping. He's panicking and trying to curb the popular opinion of this thread is just a means by which he hopes to bring peace to his own shaken faith in the 360 after the beating it took this holiday season.

Let's be honest though, everytime we're reminded of the Wii's utter dominance in sales as we saw this last week we see an outbreak of threads and comments like this that try and downplay the Wii or negotiate it as being last gen console, for whatever reason not on the same playing field as the 360/PS3, not getting the "real" games, or limited to its own brand of "unique"-style games. People don't want to accept the Wii as this generation's standard so they come up with whatever they can to try and rationalize what's happening in the gaming world to benefit their investment in the expensive HD multi-media consoles.

oh god, here comes an arguement. just try to control yourself this time, the mods will be looking for a good excuse to give you a permanent ban. legend has a point you know.
