I just noticed recently mobile gaming is getting dumber and dumber, you dont have to think when playing these games, most of them lack of innovation, and it seems pretty stupid. It just hurts me that this poor quality of games is hurting pc gamers and console gamers alike. Sometimes I ask myself if people are starting to get stupid by the minute since these games only reflect to the society it caters. It just seems sad.

What makes the games they play stupid? What kind of games do you play that makes you better than them?

I don't really care to get something innovative on my phone. I just want a game that can help me kill time while waiting at the doctor's office or whatever. Usually these types of games are simple so that they're easy for me to jump in, quickly play a game in a minute, and then quit the game immediately if I have to.

Most mobile games have always been simple, but I never noticed a trend of these games being dumbed down. They don't seem to be any simpler than they were years ago.

Well, what gets me is when people spend real money for these shallow games, such as buying coins or points. They're wasting money on nothing when they could be spending it towards real games.

You misunderstood me, i play mobile games out of boredom but i noticed more and more games that are being publish in mobile platforms are becoming uninnovative, most stupid games that are ranked are mobile and internet games(farm games and the like), it does not stimulate the brain. Dont get ahead of yourself. I did not state anyhting that makes me better than them in some ways.

Most mobile games are made so that they can be enjoyed in a limited amount of time.

I never thought I would, but I had a ton of fun with Plants VS Zombies on DS. I don't feel stupid though.

I loved that game actually, its just a port though. It originally came out as a pc game before venturing to mobile. Dont get me wrong ive got nothing against with mobile gamers, for i play some mobile games too. Its just that it pains me when uninnovative games kills the industry its a step backward to gaming not a leap forward.

I think the main problem is many of if not all the games he's talking about that people pay for could easy be played for free on newgrounds or heck sometimes even complete rip offs of new grounds/free online games (A very good example of this is angry birds which is a complete and udder rip off of crush the castle.)
