I hate Sony's choice to take away backwards compatability. I still have to tell people that they tookit away. This was a total scumbag move.



 Go Team Venture! I still don't get the Wii, PS Move,  and Kinect.

I hate that my Wii VC and WW-games are attached to the console and not to an account. If it breaks i might have lost everything i've purchased.
I hate their priorities on Virtual Console(do we really need 6 versions of Street Fighter 2, while titles like Soul Blazer has not been released yet)

 

I don't love Sony, but i have a PS3 and i have one problem with it. The EU PSN store sucks donkeyshit.



Sega
- Where is the Dreamcast 2!?

Nintendo
- While I don't care much about online, Wii is an excellent system for social gaming and could be even better with an improved online system. Fix it.
- More work on the 3rd party support! Look at how well Monster Hunter Tri and Professor Layton has performed! Don't just yell at the 3rd party devs (Reggie), give them support and marketing and you will get games.
- Should buy a couple of studios or expand their own. You'll need more manpower to satisfy the wide audience.
- WiiWare and Virtual Console kicks shell but the support could be even better! Some VC games are expensive.



Company i love this generation... hm.

Not sure there is one. The ones I loved last generation haven't really come through games wise this year.

2K was winning me over by bringing over the Power Pros games... but they didn't bring over Power Pros 09 because of the economic climate... which I was totally fine with and understood....

Until they released Baseball Blast. I mean... why. Power Pros looked a lot like it... played a lot better, and works well for kids on default settings.

Would of been so much cheaper to bring it over... MAYBE make the default settings start easier and market that as a kids game, rather then waste all sorts of resources making your own baseball game.

Additionally you would of at least had SOME guaranteed sales.

Instead baseball blast sold about HALF what power pros would of cost, and no doubt was much more expensive... not counting the PS2 version of power pros.

2K's management can't seem to help itself.

This and also hoping for more jRPGs.  Well, most of them just need to make their way to this side of the ocean.



"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials
