My point is that Mr Puggsly (and many others) use phrases like "core games" to be pedantic and arbitrarily exclude different value sets by framing them as being less legitimate when compared to others. This doesn't help the discourse. It is the product of people who would prefer to talk down to each other rather than say anything meaningful.

I disagree dude. You're dumping on him doesn't make anything better. And as a matter of fact, just so you know, I understood him quite clearly. And given our common understanding with our admittedly weak definitions, I kind of agreed with him. It's true, the DS did not push core (i.e. games that strictly appeal to dedicated gamers).

Star fox command barely sold half a million, Chinatown wars was at the 1Mil mark, not much more (it's a GTA game!). On PSP GTA series games faired much better.

Get off the judge seat for a sec master..

Believe it or not, this whole conversation train is another way to keep me from flying off the handle about this tiresome line of self-serving, xenophobic pedantry
