Forums - Gaming - What is with the boycotting?

i really don't understand this. If the ubisoft is crap, then don't buy it. Isn't that boycott enough?

I mean, before this proposed boycott, who here honestly buys dogz or whatever?

If Ubisoft makes an awesome game, then I will buy it. But if they make a crap game, then I won't. Its as simple as that.

The boycott was because we thought Ubisoft was basically telling Wii owners to go fuck themselves. Ubisoft officialy said it is not their stance that the Wii is only good for casual games, so now a lot of us are waiting and seeing instead of boycotting. 



A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.

Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs

If they make a new Prince of Persia or BGE and it fails because they ignored 50% of the market, then its their own fault.

i'm pretty sure its more due to the fact that they said "this is what wii owners want" when announcing:

rather than just ignoring the wii 'hardcore' userbase.. they insulted it by claiming to know what they wanted and that this was it..

quality like that displayed in the picture above is just unacceptable in the year 2008

 

WOW I could draw straigher lines than that , but regardless it's not like Nintendo are putting out these games there are plenty other developers you can get your Wii games from.


 what I think is hilarious.... is that people complain about the graphics for that game.... when I'd be offended by the game itself... a dog training game.... ????? really ????

 

I got it mario is a plumbing simulation..... mario kart a drunk driving sim etc... come on people.... you do reallise they are thinking you are all morons here ???? Wii fit is a joke.... you want to do sports... get your ass off the house and do actual sport.... fitness would be a sport it be on the OG..... dog simulation on DS

they are completely underminding human inteligence... and the worst is people are loving it..... nintendo didn't find a great way to atract casual gamers with the Wiimote... they just figured out that for lambs you have to do games like fox is reporting news.... 

 

sorry guys it's my opinion  



There's a difference between having an opinion and insulting people. I wasn't fooled by Nintendo. I like what I like and you like what you like.

The Fact is: Ubisoft only made crap Wii-Games. The first Rayman was good and fresh, after that they only made crap for the Wii. But nonetheless other companys will make games for the wii that the audience want and will make profit. Face the fact: The wii has the oldest demographic of all consoles. Many PC-Gamers who not play the last-gen-gamepad-consoles like gamecube, xbo360, ps3 etc. bought a wii and want to enjoy games like ego-shooter, survival horror etc. on the wii.

 i'm not they do..... and I stand to my point the masses are lambs... My professional field couldn't exist otherwise and I couldn't make them buy BS like I do..... it's a sad realitty but it is a reallity... we don't decide for them we just influence them.... people gave up their free will centuries ago when they had still some ideals to fight for...  



and I didn't say all they do is crap... I'm saying what got the casual is..... like every mainstream product in general anyway..... high end products are rarely targeted at the mainstream... and high quality product are rarely the one getting the most sales.....

but hey you have the right to disagree



endimion, first of all you're wrong. Second, you're dumb. Third, leave Wii Fit out of this.



It's sheep. Not lambs. But on topic this so called boycott is ridiculous. Support a quality game if Ubisoft makes one so they make more. That's how you get your message across. If you don't buy anything from them, regardless of it's quality, then they leave the Wii all together. I personallly will buy Red Steel 2 if it's any good.
