Should a movie director who usually makes R rated movies feel apologetic if he decides he wants to make a couple PG movies so more people can experience them? No. And neither should MS for trying to expand its audience. The whole thought process of "Oh they are trying to appeal to everyone so we should gang up and trash on them." is borderline just plain stupid. I find it hilarious no one complains about the movie industry being "casual" when its filled with PG movies and romantic comedies and such and yet try to trash on Nintendo and MS just because they decide that's what is actually HEALTHY for the industry is to have experiences for everyone. |
Well Pixar and most PG movies are of great quality. Adults and kids a like can pull entertainment. When the quality is good no one hates them, its when movies suck (most romantic comedies) they get torn apart, not sure why you said no one complains about romantic comedies, its very rare they are recepted well. Its a quality issue not a label issue. Same with Kinect. Its a lot harder for videogames to appeal to broad audiences though, no doubt about it. People label brain training as casual, but it offers quality entertainment to a lot of people so its successful. I think people are worried that the "casual" focus isnt going to lead to quality. Thats all.
