Why Wii Don't Play

This is a discussion of why Xbox 360 owners spend alot more time on their consoles than Wii or PS3 owners.

excerpt:
"The Wii also lacks entire genres, like online first person shooters, or role playing games that lend themselves to frequent, lengthy play sessions. And, yes, I know that a Medal of Honor game was made for the Wii, but I'd like to see the argument that it holds a candle to similar online experiences on the Xbox 360 or PC. I don't think Nintendo could care less about statistics like these because; one, they're not targeting hardcore gamers; and two, that same hardcore demographic would probably buy a Wii anyway if there was a title that appealed to them."

Well I know I'm on my PS3 quite a lot. Although I do have a job and I'm married so trying to put more than a hour or two a day is pretty difficult. You could take from this story that a lot of younger gamers own the 360 than the PS3 hence the disparity in times. And when it come to the Wii there not a ton of great games. I play mine every once in awhile but not as much as my PS3.

Ar Tonelico Qoga: Knell Of Ar Ciel Retro Review – Love Conquers All

Gary Green said: You’ll be forgiven if you haven’t heard of the Ar Tonelico trilogy. The previous two games arrived so late in the PS2’s life-cycle that they simply went unnoticed. While most were tinkering with their shiny new PS3s, Ar Tonelico: Melody of Elemia and Ar Tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica were being ‘returned to sender’ by your local Game stores. Luckily, you won’t need to have played them to understand and appreciate this third and final chapter, Qoga (pronounced k-yoga) tells the story of a racial war between humans and Reyvateils, a breed of biologically produced female cyborgs capable of reproduction, while still having a digital mind.

Oh my god. I kinda wish this would get a remaster on PS5, it would be awesome. One of my favorite games on PS3.

That and 3D Dot Game Heroes. It's a shame that some stuff is stuck on PS3.

Ar Tonelico 3 is good I still prefer the first AT game. The music is solid in all the games and Akiko Shikata is a very talented singer bringing life to the game. Only annoying part is well I find is Saki I always choose Finnel or Tyria. KOEI so needs to HD remaster the franchise along with Ar Nosurge and Ciel Nosurge since it never came to North America. I would day one the Ar Toneliceo games and Ar Nosurge if they were remastered.

I still have the limited edition of Qoga unopened. Unfortunately it never went up in value like I had hoped all these years.
