+1 for you my friend. The videogame medium, like all other media, is hugely diverse. Just look at GTAIV, MGS4, Mario Galaxy, The Sims, Nintendogs, Tetris, etc. There's so much to choose from, and they all send the gaming industry in various directions. The original topic of this thread is sad. How many times do you hear movie buffs saying stuff like Harold and Kumar or Die Hard are bad for movies? How often do you hear people in book clubs say romance novels or Stephen King are bad for books?
This topic just goes to show the immaturity and lack of vision of some gamers.
Edit: And I'm with Ant. What the F does "bad" mean? That's as vague as can be.
My Top 5:
Shadow of the Colossus, Metal Gear Solid 3, Shenmue, Skies of Arcadia, Chrono Trigger
My 2 nex-gen systems: PS3 
and Wii 
Prediction Aug '08: We see the PSP2 released fall '09. Graphically, it's basically the same as the current system. UMD drive ditched and replaced by 4-8gb on board flash memory. Other upgrades: 2nd analog nub, touchscreen, blutooth, motion sensor. Design: Flip-style or slider. Size: Think Iphone. Cost: $199. Will be profitable on day 1.
