I like how you use Halo 3 as an example of a core game, and then say that Nintendo games are too easy, when Halo 3 was probably one of the easiest games I've played this generation, and the only reason I thought the Nintendo games were easy because they go by the same formula that they have been going by for years now and I know what to do. I bet if a Non-Gamer played Halo 3 and Metroid Prime 3 they will choose Halo 3 as the easier one because of how linear it is, and there aren't too many puzzles. Maybe Nintendo hasn't changed but you have. Could this be your problem?

I came out the womb playing gameboy.

what really cracks me up is if it wasn't for the wii a lot of people would claim to be hardcore, however since there system of choice has been comprimised and viewed as casual, they need a way to hinder it off of them so they mock anyone who drags the system down in anyway. Most the time it's an excuse to get fanboyism off themself. however halo 3....not a good example.

This must be a joke thread? right? right?

So you made a mish-mash of the anti-Wii attacks we've been seeing for years, written with proper grammar.

Tell us please what is there in your post which is new?

@Soulsamurai: Actually if it wasn't for the Wii, nobody would claim being hardcore, since there wouldn't be a need to try to create contrast between the systems.

It's not being "hardcore" that people are mocking, it's people using it as though it's some kind of badge of honour to be "hardcore", when really, all it means is you spend your time playing games. It's the idea that "hardcore" gamers somehow deserve more industry attention than anyone else, and especially the idea that people who are newer to games are unworthy of gaming.

Well my mom had an NES surgically implanted in her womb so I think I out rank everyone..


but you can't honestly say nintendo has failed to satisfy your x core urges before they even release some of their biggest franchises..

New zelda game.. pokemon?


honestly wait for them to put out more games..



They brought you OoT.. they automatically out rank you.
