Oh, and @Legend11's Nintendo fan stereotyping... I make the graphics argument for the 4th generation, but I don't for the 6th generation. By the time the Cube came out, I stopped caring about graphics entirely. I didn't even have a Cube. I played StarCraft for that whole generation. I almost majored in StarCraft, actually. |
Here's the thing. Most of the people making threads like this are Nintendo fans. And what I find interesting is if graphics really are unimportant or holding back games why aren't 360 and PS3 fans making such threads? Surely the people playing the games with the very graphics in question should be the ones to complain if they feel that the games on those systems are inferior to the ones from last generation. Surely there must be at least a few honest ones that would say "Hey the games this generation really suck compared to last generation" if that were the case. Yet I don't see that happening. |
of course it's Wii fans making these threads...people who choose gameplay over graphics choose the wii...people who choose graphics over gameplay choose ps360 |
There are many games on the 360 and PS3 that have good gameplay. So your claim is incorrect. |
I think you missed the point. If I'm correct, Fastrabbit's point was that the 360 and PS3 chose to advance in graphics and power and digital distribution. The Wii chose to advance in controls, and thereby gameplay and game design. That's not to say that the 360 and PS3 shun good gameplay -- that's a ridiculous strawman -- but they are not innovating there as much as the Wii is, because they have hardware limitations that the Wii does not, just as the Wii has hardware limitations that the 360 and PS3 do not. |
Fastrabbit never mentioned innovation in his claim, he simply mentioned gameplay and claimed that people who buy 360s and PS3s simply do it because they put graphics over gameplay. Which is ridiculous when you consider how many great games with great gameplay are on those systems and how many people bought them for that reason.
