You croppped nothing. The best selling games on the PS2 were core games. Not so on the Wii. PS2 owes a large amount of its market dominance to DVD... in its first year. In the 2nd year, they destroyed with:

GT3: A-Spec

GTA 3

MGS2

FFX

Jak & Daxter

Right, remind me again why GTA isn't considered a casual game? It was the most popular thing around among my elementary & middle school classmates. You know, 10-to-12-year-olds?

The casual-core argument is stupid and I will not indulge it any further in this thread. As if one console's success is more "legitimate" because its best-selling titles appealed to a different market from another successful console's.

Yeah....I'm sure all those 10-12 year-olds' parents were buying those games for them. And I'm still not seeing GTA being a game played by soccer moms and senior citizens.
