they are generic because are based on cliches, can be replaced easily and have little to no appeal to the people that are not biased,
talking about sales and MArio? |
"based on cliches" WAT How many good tough guys have you seen before in Sony/M$ games? Many, that's really all of what their MC's are, good tough guys. (And Nintendo can fall under this category for some of it's 3rd/2nd party games, too.)
You clearly haven't played an Uncharted game. How is Drake a tough guy? And in UC3 he's hinted at being the "bad guy" quite a bit. He isn't a predictable character, his darker story is explored a little in UC3.
Drake is set as a tough/heroic character. He is adventurous and does things most people would not do. OK, so he is hinted. as being bad Is he really the bad guy in the end, though? Btw, I never even mentioned Drake.
He's hardly heroic, who is he a hero to? He's in it for the treasure and the rush, and some other things hinted at in UC3. You said "that's really all of what their MC's are, good tough guys," so this doesn't include Drake? I guess it includes Sackboy, all the characters from HR, Sly cooper, the characters from Team Ico games...
"can be replaced easily" WAT That one is pretty obvious. It's obvious what he meant sure, it's just not correct. How can Uncharted or GOW be replaced easily? Explain that point if you're gonna make it.
I didn't really know what he meant by it, either. I was referring to what you stated in the underlined area.
fair enough
"little to no appeal to the people that are not biased" WAAAAAAT. xD What does that even mean? What I think He means is that people who don't really like FPS/TPS Genre/Sony can see that it is basically what I wrote in my first sentences.
1st of all, it's not what you wrote in the first sentences, 2nd of all, you haven't even played the games yet make judgements as if you have. E.g. you don't get the general overview of Drakes character from a trailer or 2. Or if you have played them, please tell me how Nate Drake fits the "tough guy" character. "people who don't really like FPS/TPS Genre/Sony can see that it is basically what I wrote in my first sentences." can you back that up? I know at least 3 Ninty fans that bought a PS3 for Uncharted, and have loved it, including one guy from here (HappyD).
Did I say Nintendo Fans? I also never said every person who doesn't really like those types of games.
"What I think He means is that people who don't really like FPS/TPS Genre/Sony can see that it is basically what I wrote in my first sentences." This includes Ninty fans, you didn't say"some people" or "a few people," you generalised. But if you take that back, then what is your point?
Again, can you back that claim up? Or is it completely unsubstantiated?
And yes, sales and Mario? I said that Mario sells really well, or at least implied it, and that's why Ninty slaps his name on so many games. What's your point? Nintendo "Slaps" his name on games because that is one of their largest "Worlds". They have "Mario" Kart because they can incorporate several Mario-Series Characters into one game. It would be stupid to have a Pokemon Kart because is 1.) pokemon's not versatile enough and 2.) it would just look stupid. (That's an expample, btw.)
Karting games are an exception, that's why I've never mentioned them.
I was using that as an example.
