You guys sound like a bunch of sissies afraid to see who really is the best. Everyone of you has laid claim to being really good and everyone can do that when there are no stats to prove/disprove it. Lack of voicechat is understandable on a console aimed at kids, parents dont want their kids exposed to that kinda stuff. But a win/loss record & Disconnect % are a must for a game like this. Wii Online = LAME watered down kiddie sanitized everyone wins BS |
Internet tough guy spotted. Wait, scratch that - internet tough 12-year-old boy spotted.
Anyway, I'm thirding/fourthing what DonWii said. The only reason leaderboards and scores exist in online games is to feed the egos of... well... people like dgm6780. And, more than that, they contribute to anti-sportsmanlike behavior like disconnecting from a match if you're losing.
"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
