Im winning GGE! Im playing the best games ive ever played (excepting Goldeneye and Zelda OoT. I have a Wii and 360 and competition is forcing massive investment in new ideas and boundary pushing in story-telling and gameplay.

Alot of us are telling outselves that we're winning. Ps3 fanboys are telling themselves they're winning. Wii fanboys are telling themselves they're winning. 360 fanboys are telling themselves they're winning.

I see no new Ideas outside of the Wii's motion controls, just refinements to old ideas and sequels to the same old games. The only real massive investment this generation being made is the one being made in graphics. Aside from Graphics and online capabilities, there's nothing these games are doing this generation that weren't done the last.

And @ Zenfolder

We've been hearing crap like that since the Wii wowed the world with its success but as of late the biggest third party titles are else where. And the promised support from third party developers has been little more than awkward attempts at trying to figure out what the Wii demographic wants.


GGE, if you don't see any innovation, then you aren't looking. Every console builds on the foundation of what comes before. But then, what doesn't? Cars are upgraded year after year. Televisions, same deal. Movie special effects? Ditto. But tell me, what game last gen has characters as visually engaging as Mass Effect? You forget that the characters on screen aren't real. That means greater immersion. What game offered a similar experience to Dead Rising, or Nintendogs? Or Bio Shock? Or Brain age? And you already mentioned the Wii's controls. The innovation is there. Games like "Spore" and Wii Fit show that innovation is going to continue. How long have you been gaming, GGE? Despite what you think, it's the evoloution of ideas that were realised 30 years ago that keep you AND I playing games.
