This is irrelevant, but I think that your signature is absolutely hilarious.JayMatthews06
Irrelevant to what?! It's the first post! If you're referring to relevence toward the console wars, then I must say that I agree completely that online is important, because quite frankly, the Wii SUCKS at this point. Every game I've played feels like it's either an extended tech demo or a collection of minigames that are fun for 10 minute runs. I actually thought about getting several Wii games, but ultimately decided that there's no point to them; there's nothing to unlock, or if there is, there's no further replay value. I used to be 100% content with games like that, but ever since I discovered online, the whole concept of how to have fun with games has changed. The concept of actually competing with everyone else in the world to get a higher score than them, or if you're not into that, playing multiplayer anytime you want while talking to people all over the world literally feels like you're creating your own game experience with living, breathing people, as opposed to pre-programmed images that always act the same. The harsh reality is, while playing single-player games is still fun, it lacks depth if that's all there is to the experience. I used to be a huge Nintendo fan, but ever since the last part of the Gamecube's life, Nintendo seems to be living in the past. Yes, it's going out on it's own innovative tangent with all this touch screen crap, but that only goes so far before you realize that there's other people outside your own little world playing really good games without you.
