I whole heartily disagree.

Most people do, and that's fine. I hated the 7th generation, it turned me almost completely away from console gaming, I bought only about a dozen games for the PS3 and didn't even own a 360 or Wii. The Wii was waggle and usual suspects and the PS3 and 360 were the main reason for most mainstream games getting the "broader appeal" treatment for higher potential sales.

Many loved it; I did not.

I get what you mean. It was hit and miss for me all gen long. It seems like there were far less innovative games during that gen than during any previous generation. Most were very formulaic games than didn't dare take any risks. But when the games were good, I thought they were actually fantastic and memorable. But there weren't that many of them.

I didn't hate last gen, but it wasn't as interesting as the ones that came before. But maybe it's all due to us getting old. =P
