"so and on...
What happened to the bandwagon that was 2006/2007/2008"
That'ts because they all left on the Hypocritic Train, full steam ahead!
It's a bit of a joke really lol
"Hardcore is now about owning whats best, whats hardcore of owning one good system with 3 other garbage. If i can have Ferrari i don't want no toyot"
It has nothing to do with the power of the console, its about the games. You can have a super powerful system with crap games....but it doesnt change the fact that they are still CRAP games.
-Note im not talking about any console in particular. Just stating that a super console is nothing without...
^ Whos to say they wont use both
Like most major releases there are usually more than one control option.
"yes make street fighter fit,
that will please the wii audience who missed out on SFIV "
Actually i get too play any version i want as I have SSFIV on the ps3 and tatsunoko vs capcom on the wii.
And i would never buy a Street Fighter "fit" game.
"If the Wii had controllers it would get multiplatform titles like Grand Theft Auto or Fallout 3."
*sigh* the wii has more than just one control set up
1.Wii remote + Nun chuk
2. Classic controller (with shoulder buttons and everything!)
3. The gamecube controller
4. Nes style remote on side.
So count THREE that do not use motion, and MOST major releases use all four. New super mario only used nes style for...
"Their last two consoles did that and all the casual gamers went to PS brand. Sony went with the hardcore this gen and they have the lowest software sales, and lowest hardware sales."
Yes people always forget the shovelware crap on the ps2 and ps1. The gamecube had quality games, ..just didnt have the people to buy them lol It was great having resident evil 4 for a while before it went multiplat.
But the writing was on the wall. Casual gamers ...
"Its sure great for those who invested in this so called "future proof" concept, but it doesn't really work well once other companies bring a new system into the market."
lol yeh..wasnt it a 10 year plan according to sony at one point. I mean 10 years is a LONG time for technology.
"Graphics are already incredible this gen...I don't know how much more you want. I know they can go further...but when does a game become not a game?"
Really good point. I personally play games to get away from real life for a while. Not play something that imitates it, how boring ! Style wise at least.
"Will they stay casual or go hardcore???"
Its the gamer who is "hardcore" or casual. Not the system or game.
"but now we're seeing really POWERFUL consoles doing MIND BLOWING things..."
Your seeing what PC's could do 5 years ago
A good console has never been about power.
For the time was ..
the Nes powerful - no. The gameboy - ahh no. The ps1 - nope. especially compared to their counter parts.
Master system was more powerful but had no support,
game gear was more powerful but ate batterie...
"but I do miss having arcades, and I don't think the younger players will be able to appreciate that. It wasn't just the arcade games, it was the noise, the air hockey and the smell of loose change.."
Amen to that. The whole experience of an arcade is something that really something that i truly miss. Sure they are still around, but no where near what they were. Plus the ones around now still have the same games from then lol No new ones (some but hardly ...
"The Genesis/SNES era, by far. "
Absolutely. Dont know why alot of people are prefering the n64 and ps1 (sure they were pretty good). However they were nothing compared to the megadrive/snes era looking back now.
The snes was waaaaaay better than the n64. Plus the n64/ps1 era was where the casual-shovelware crap really started to get some traction. It was always there with the nes and snes, but boy the ps1/n64 saw some crap i tell you.
...
"Where sales didn't matter, fanboyism didn't exist, and it was ALL about GAMING."
there has always been fanboys, except now gaming is now more widespread due to the internet. Sega vs Nintendo was freakin huge back in the day.
Sega does what nintendont ..apparently lol
..especially now because sega dont make consoles and nintendoes
"Loved every minute of SMG
Loved every minute of GOW3.
Feel sorry for people like you that let something you obviously dont own or like run your life in any way."
And they call us fanboys lol The main difference is we get to play games across the board on all platforms, where they are limited to just the one. Not all im sure, but people that type the crap they do at least.
"Mario sounds like a 12 years old kid and he looks like a pedophile on shroomz."
Another example of a "hard- cough -core" lol
Your name and the crap you type really is proof of how much of a "mature gamer" you are
Great list. Looks like my game collection for the wii (minus the unreleased games lol)
Nba jam looks like a great exclusive too.
I hope the people dissing your list have a least played them all before trashing them too.
Tatsunoko vs capcom is one awesome fighter. If anybody likes fighters there is NO reason at all to dislike this game.
@people trashing the control scheme, there are actually many ways to play these games. S...
What about capturing the flag over and over again. Respawning and respawning, fighting the same wars over and over again.
BTW i like all games equally im just stating the obvious
"And the PS3 is going as strong as ever and won't vanish for at least another 5 years. "
5 years ?? Won't that be out dated last gen tech by then.
Something everybody complains about the wii the most. And you have 30 agrees, so people must not be worried about old tech as much as they make out.
@sikbeta
nintendo have a nack for making simple fun. You remember simple fun dont you? Not thinking too much jus...
Big shocker ! lol
"Little Big Planet was better.It did the 4 player co op/competition first and has 2.7 million user made levels,so I'm still playing it with my 6 year old.It also handles like it was designed with 4 player in mind with better camera and co op areas than Super Mario bros Wii(which I did like by the way). "
Well everybody certainly has there own opinions, i personally found LBP boring compared to mario. But i also do not personally like RPG's, i just prefer pl...
