I'm so sick of shooters must every game in the industry contain guns. Can anyone make a decent platformer or adventure game besides Nintendo. I'm sick of the whole industry Nintendo hasn't released any info on thier games and the PS3 and 360 have nothing but shooters. Halo3, Gears of War, Metal Gear 4, GTA 4, Call of Duty, Half Life 2, ect ect ect...

I've owned all of the above and yet to finish any but 1. By the time I get most of the way done I just give up. I think I'm seroiusly burned out on shooters. The only game in the near future I'm remotely interested in is Resident Evil 5.

I can honestly say I haven't played a good game since Zelda TP on my gamecube. I'd like to play Mario Galaxy but I'm not buying a Wii until some good nintendo games get anounced.

Pardon my rant it's eating me up.

Yeah I've been thinking about switching over to PC gaming but I don't want to spend a fortune for a good rig. I don't want to play on a POS rig. My PC now is nice but it has integrated grafix.

MGS4 wasnt really a shooter. At least you didnt have to kill everyone. And games like LBP, inFamous, Motorstorm 2, Fable, and WKC should satisfy you.

One is a stealth action game, and another is an open world action adventure....

Go play Braid, Pixel Junk, N+, Puzzle Quest, The Last Guy, Echocrome, Kameo, and while your doing that, wait for Banjo, Little Big Planet, and Heavy Rain.

the wii feels your pain, TC. lemmings and cows may not believe it, but for old school games, the wii is a breath of fresh air. the games thats out on the other system is far too may, too similar. its good to play shooters every once in a while, but you also need diversity. the wii is destine to offer that, if it follows the road of the nintendo ds.

The only one that sounds good to me is Fable but if it's anything like the first it will be over in 8 hours. I won't pay $60 for an 8 hour game maybe after a year if it drops in price.

There are already a number of highly rated first party games (also don't forget the 250 games on VC).

The Wii will get the Conduit which will use Motion Plus and you also got Metroid Prime for a chance of pace.

Yeah I actualy had a Wii but sold it after a week. I was looking at its game release schedual and it looked pitiful. Plus it was 3 weeks before xmas and a hot item so I sold it on craigslist for a profit. I figured I'd get one down the road. I was so looking forward to Nintendo's e3 to see what they had instore. What a let down and I'm still waiting before I but. I know there will be more games but when?

If you have a nice pc as you claim (and By nice im assuming relatively modern hardware) than why don't you just buy a new video card because clearly it seems your only problem is your graphics card. You can get a decent card for under 200 dollars.

I'm so sick of shooters must every game in the industry contain guns. Can anyone make a decent platformer or adventure game besides Nintendo. I'm sick of the whole industry Nintendo hasn't released any info on thier games and the PS3 and 360 have nothing but shooters. Halo3, Gears of War, Metal Gear 4, GTA 4, Call of Duty, Half Life 2, ect ect ect...

I've owned all of the above and yet to finish any but 1. By the time I get most of the way done I just give up. I think I'm seroiusly burned out on shooters. The only game in the near future I'm remotely interested in is Resident Evil 5.

I can honestly say I haven't played a good game since Zelda TP on my gamecube. I'd like to play Mario Galaxy but I'm not buying a Wii until some good nintendo games get anounced.

Why are you interested in Resident Evil 5 when you are clearly so sick of shooters? RE5 defines shooter and has 'shooter' written all over it. You don't make any sense at all, clearly you are confused of what you like and what you dislike. Also, if you can't stand it then too bad, this is what most gamers ask for, most gamers want shooters so that is what they are going to get. It is shooters who have their own unique experience is what will seperate em from the rest.

I have a core 2 duo and 3 gigs of ram but I talked to some poeple and I'd need to upgrade my PSU and some other stuff. I was told that it would be best to send it in to the manufacture.

Not at all. Then you aren't really sick of shooters if you are still interested enough to pick up RE5. Chances are if you are a 360 fan, you will be interested enough to at least try Gears 2 and that right there means you aren't so sick of shooters after all.

After looking at all of the games released this year that scored an 8 or above at Gamespot , I think there have only been 2 shooters so far ......... Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and Battlefield MC. Surprised ? So am I. Go look at all of the other games releases , it has been a good year so far with variety. I guess you can throw in MGS4 as a shootetr , but really ..... that is more action/adventure than just a straight up shooter.

We need more shooters ! ..... and R2 , Gears 2 , and a handful of others should satisfy us.

I've been playing games since about 1981 some where around there. I've seen alot of trends come and go but the shooter one is the most anoying.

"Shooting" is in other games too. Like Sports games and..drug games. The games that usually say under the parental warning: Use of Drugs, Violence. :|

After looking at all of the games released this year that scored an 8 or above at Gamespot , I think there have only been 2 shooters so far ......... Rainbow Six Vegas 2 and Battlefield MC. Surprised ? So am I. Go look at all of the other games releases , it has been a good year so far with variety. I guess you can throw in MGS4 as a shootetr , but really ..... that is more action/adventure than just a straight up shooter.

We need more shooters ! ..... and R2 , Gears 2 , and a handful of others should satisfy us.

I guess what I'm getting at is there needs to be more mario esque games on other systems platformers and such.

Problem is many of those won't happen since the likes of Crash and Sonic have gone downhill and Rare now owned by MS.

I am playing Komeo right now for the 360....It a great platformer you can pick up for $10 at Gamespot

on a side note I bought the game because of the Komeo vs SMG threads out awhile back. Thinking the game may be has good as SMG or at least hoping. Well it is a good game, it makes me wonder the ones who said it is better if they have ever play SMG. I am betting no.

But it still a good game at a good cost.

I'm so sick of shooters must every game in the industry contain guns. Can anyone make a decent platformer or adventure game besides Nintendo. I'm sick of the whole industry Nintendo hasn't released any info on thier games and the PS3 and 360 have nothing but shooters. Halo3, Gears of War, Metal Gear 4, GTA 4, Call of Duty, Half Life 2, ect ect ect...

I've owned all of the above and yet to finish any but 1. By the time I get most of the way done I just give up. I think I'm seroiusly burned out on shooters. The only game in the near future I'm remotely interested in is Resident Evil 5.

I can honestly say I haven't played a good game since Zelda TP on my gamecube. I'd like to play Mario Galaxy but I'm not buying a Wii until some good nintendo games get anounced.

Pardon my rant it's eating me up.

They will cool down there a pattern in gaming of certain genre getting big then making more of them then the market can handle. Then chashing

Look at the past

Fighting games

Point and Clicks

RPG

platformers

Tetris clones yes they even had their time in the sun

now shooters

They all have had huge points in gaming but crashed sooner or latter. Just like shooters will. I am not saying they will stop making them but there will be a point when the demand for them will drop and you will only see sequels with very few new IPs.

I was feeling you until I seen:

"I can honestly say I haven't played a good game since Zelda TP on my gamecube."

That made me laugh....

Hey I grew up on Zelda and I love adventure games and yes I like back tracking too at times. Thats another thing that annoys me about todays games alot of them are too liniar. It gets annoying being led down a path all the time.

people like their shooters this gen. I'm personally feeling meh to these games and that's my reason for not liking this gen as much as the others. All the highly praised games are mostly shooters so I go for the underradars games like d3 and operation darkness to name a few

I bet the reason there are so many shooters is because of the costs to make games this gen. Developers go with whats selling and if shooters are in they go with the flow. Thats probobly why theres so many sequils and less new IPs.

I think a lot of new developers are in it for the money and are not as passionate as other developer that have been in the bussiness for years now
