@stever89

what are you majoring in



"Back off, man. I'm a scientist."

Your theories are the worst kind of popular tripe, your methods are sloppy, and your conclusions are highly questionable! You are a poor scientist. Especially if you think the moon landing was faked.

I, for one, welcome our new casual overlords.



Mainstream gamers are no more a death knell to gaming than mainstream moviegoers were a death knell to film making. Certain types of games don't appeal to the mainstream, just as certain types of films don't, but that doesn't mean that those games (and movies) lacking mass appeal won't sell well enough to warrant their continued existence. They'll just inevitably be shuffled into background obscurity in culture at large, thanks to their status as "hardcore only".



Sky Render - Sanity is for the weak.

@stever89 That is a very well reasearched and thought out article. I thought you might be in busisness or marketing. I bet you will be very good at what you do.

Has ioi setup that vote articles into news thing yet?

Yeah business management has always been an interest of mine, and it's got me into trouble at some of my after school jobs, because I swear I could run those places better than the managers. But they didn't like me trying to make the place better, so I was never promoted to a position where I could actually make a difference. And then I quit.

I don't recall ioi ever mentioning a thing like that, but it might be a work in progress type deal.



I somehow thought I would get more responses than that. lol

I write too much for my own good it seems. 110 or so people entered this thread, saw it was a mile long, and ran for the hills.



I just had nothing to add because well I agree with you.



Casuals are fantastic. I hug them.



My Games of 2011:

The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Super Mario 3D Land

Uncharted 3: Drake's Deception

So I wrote such a good opinion article that I can't even get any discussion going. Crazzy.

Speaking of which, where is he? I bet he'd have something to say.
