| Shameless said: Let's get one thing straight before I begin - everyone on this forum should be a hardcore gamer. There are no two ways about it. Because of this, it often suprises me that Nintendo fans enjoy seeing the PS360 consoles fall; consoles which are entirely tailored and aimed at the hardcore gaming audience. The success of the Wii will mean that all console developers will spend a lot more time and money on the casual gaming audience and where does that leave us? From what I can see of this generation, gaming will cease to be a hardcore form of entertainment. We'll still have hardcore games in the future but they're likely to be lower budget and less innovative. As far as I can see, our preferred form of entertainment will go down the shitter as it becomes less and less profitable to make hardcore games. The success of the HD consoles is extremely likely to be the deciding factor on what the state of gaming will be in the next gen. |
It's strange, but I get more satisfaction out of Nintendo haters getting owned by reality, than gaming in general, and that says a lot. Because, as much as I love gaming, I just can't stand someone calling me and what I like "stupid" because of their own insecurities, and when justice is brought to them, it makes my heart swell, and I breathe easier.
So yes, I'd rather see idiots burn in hell, from earth, than live with them in heaven.
Long live the Wii.
I don't need your console war.
It feeds the rich while it buries the poor.
You're power hungry, spinnin' stories, and bein' graphics whores.
I don't need your console war.
NO NO, NO NO NO.
