there is nothing to discuss you want childish or family games i want stuff like Gow, its just how it is.


 

This needs to be repeated for emphasis: I am not asking for games that are less mature than God of War. I'm asking for games that are more mature, and I believe the Wii is moving us in that direction.


You cant be serious. That surely wont happen on the wii, what the hell makes you think that it will.


Because it already is happening? As I said, over the last fifteen years, games really have made no inroads to capturing the adult market.

And now the Wii is selling to adults. Isn't that... obvious? Brain Age, the Sims, this new Firefighter game, and other mature titles are coming to the system.

Again, Blue, the proof is in the pudding. Adults did not buy the PS1 or the PS2 in any large numbers. Adults ARE buying the Wii. You can gnash your teeth and flail about all you want, but it's as simple as that.



yahh they sold +100 million with no adult sales, your delusional if you think adults did not buy the PS2 it's as simple as that. Sony expended past the child/teen gamer, you can deny it all you want but every one knows its a fact.

 


Geez, Blue, these are trends, not absolutes. Of course some adults bought playstations, just as some 5 year olds did (I've sold one to a 5 year old, in fact. Or at least his parents). Generally speaking, very few adults played video games; now, a lot more are. Conclusion: adults like the Wii better than all previous consoles.

This isn't something that I just made up. It's not Sony in particular, by the way --  they were only the most important player in the last 10 years, and thus can be used as a representative for the whole. Nintendo and Microsoft had also failed to capture adults, at least until this last generation.
