Who exactly is the authority on what qualifies as a video game? Or better yet, why do some users believe that just because they think they have a grasp on casual general opinion that said ridiculous notion can be used to defend an incorrect opinion about an observable and discrete fact.
It is truly baffling.
And I'm pulling an All-nighter.

Good post as usual. The people with their arms crossed in denial about how games are labeled and shouting for exclusion from these lists are like the guy in alabama with one tooth who thinks "....if only we secede".

I dont participate in any social media. No facebook, twitter, instagram. It isnt for me. But I dont have the ignorance or arrogance to pretend like they arent real things that people gravitate toward. People constantly seem baffled by sales when comparing "games" because they assume that "no one cares" about the smaller budget games without even entertaining the thought that theyre ignorant to a market thats changing while they are daydreaming of seceding. 


Lets make this easy, also I'm not a toothless southern bell, I make a lot of money for what I know.

Ok so lets put it on a scale  so you can understand.

If I'm a daredevil. I decide to do a competition with evil knievel jr or some random guy.

I decide that the amount of jumps we do is relevant. However he does a 100ft jump. I'm over here and I do a 5 ft jump 100 times. Is that the same thing? is it in the same catagory, no it is not.

Or lets make it about football.  If I make it on a Highschool football team and so in your logic it's the same as being on the pro's.

So there is a difference however this list serves your purpose and  your console. The list should be seperate because it's in hole different catagory.

Also by your logic xbox one should have not invested millions into a AAA title but yet made 10-20 indies with that same money. Actually why even make AAA games? Why not just make a 1000 indies instead, because absolutly no one would buy the console. NEXT GEN GAMING SHOULD BE SEPERATE FROM # GENS AGO>

Yes do people want to play these games, SURE but it's still not in the same group.  That's why many things in life are subgrouped because they are not the same.  Dance music is dance music right? Well DNB are no where the same as House music ETC>>>>
