Gamer.Blorge aka Tech.Blorge, citing an unnamed "inside source at a major games development company," claims that "developers" regard the Wii as just a "party toy" and a way of making "easy money", and that "(there'll) be a lot of titles developed for the Wii, but nothing that really stands out."
According to Gamer.Blorge's anonymous source, here's how the next-generation console war would pan out:
* Wii – will be a fun multi-player (offline) party mode type games, decent graphics, cool game play, but limited success. Everyone will pretty much own a Wii, much like they own board games
* Xbox 360 – some serious realistic games, but mostly arcade shooters like Halo, and racing games like Forza, lots of online multi-player games
* PS3 – some arcade games, but more physics oriented games, with an emphasis in intense realism in gaming, a lot of mulitplayer games, and a lot of cross platforming with PlayStation Portable and other Sony products.

“I thoroughly enjoy retro-style games and with that, Magic Orbz modernises the classic brick breaking formula and it has held up beautifully.” - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums.
BLG writes, "Some of the most popular games have had a rough start, with some of them being downright unplayable.
Despite that, developers have managed to turn it around for them and make their game worth playing. Here are some games that had a rough start but were pretty great."
Sea of Thieves... I'm not disagreeing that the game has improved in terms of content. But I feel that the most significant change between now and its release is actually the public perception. Nowadays, most people are aware that the game is a multiplayer PvP-focused experience first and foremost, and not "Black Flag made by Rare". Consequently, people dismissing the whole experience because the single-player aspect is lacking or the story is plain are much less common.
Several years ago, i submitted an idea to Rare that would change up the mechanics of battling opponents in the game. whereby if you died in battle, you turned into a skeleton warrior and had to fight your way back to the land of the living. It was an interesting twist on respawning and would allow the player to experience both sides of a battle.
I keep hoping to see something like that get added to the game.
It's sad that this quick retort is more often than not true... The industry's acceptance of release and patch has gone too far.
Days gone! By the end of the game I couldn't drop it down! I went around so many hours killing zombies! It was addictive by the end.
I don't know, I got it abit late, and struggled for a few days, and then all of a sudden it just got good!!

"PS3 Losing Market Share It Never Had due to Faulty Hardware:"
http://gamer.blorge.com/200...
A nifty opinion work that seems to be about hardware, but does not mention a single hardware issue except in the title. And is made complete by the original Author saying:"No, I don't own nor do I have plans to own a PS3, I didn't realize that would be a prerequisite for writing an article about it"
Now that was fun to read, a lengthy rant, on software only topics, that happened to be fixed 2 days after the article was posted by an author who gains his complete "insider knowlege" by surfing the net.
yea the wii will be for the casual, but that also will just mostly mean companies are going to make casual games for the wii , aka party games, and easy things parents and kids can do, but for the hardcore i believe there will be few games for you, yes after mario, zelda, and metroid, the biggest franchises for the wii, what is coming out?? maybe one or two more hardcore games, then what is going to happen??? so nintendo has embraced the casual and sorta left out the hardcore since that is what they are aiming for
Revolution looks horrible on an HDTV? That's just pure nonsense. I have an HDTV and play Revolution on it and I can say it does NOT look bad OR horrible.
Please, come with some REAL arguments next time!
revolution whatever ignore people that even calls it that. that was the code name for the wii not the actual name. just another person to ignore.
