@robzo I honestly dont think people see those services that way, if they do, they are ignorant and missing out on some fantastic stuff. IMHO those services have games made by small dev teams that dont have the finances to go to the "big leagues". Or the games are to small that putting them on full retail disc. Stacking is game that is just as good if not better than some of the retail releases. Flower, Limbo, Beat Trip, Wipeout HD, Castle Crashers, Scott Pilgrim. The list goes on and on, their loss i guess
As for rail shooters, of all the genres born in the arcade they have had the worst transition to home consoles. Id hate to admit it, but i dont see how you can really add to the experience, those games are designed to be short and to take your money. You could say the same about beat em ups, but you can add to that experience increasing longivity. Hell they all have RPG elements anyway, and for all the crap you could do in Warriors it was just a 3d Streets of Rage when its all said and done. So when people say that they dont wanna spend full price for those games, i can see why. BTW if you got Wii give Zombie panic in Wonderland a go, its pretty much a tamer, cheaper Sin and Punishment but its still fun
