Wrong: VF: 5 and DOA 4

Wrong: FF XIII and Lost Odyssey

(ill give you puzzle games on consoles, but DS and PSP have great ones)

Wrong: Uncharted and NG: sigma.

I don't share that sentiment. We're getting sequels to all of the greatest horror games of all time. Alone in the Dark, System Shock 2, Undying, Silent Hill, and so much more. This is by far the greatest generation for horror fans ever!

This gen is pretty good. All you have to do is have patience and by the time you know it you'll be saying "ZOMG!!! I take back what I said in SW." Then you will proceed to dunk your head in a toilet full of muddy poop.

....haha...funny. The N64/Dreamcast era was the worst generation in gaming. There weren't many games I wanted around that time.

You Sir are correct. I've got a PS3, Wii and 360 but I've been playing my PS2 more than any of the recent consoles.

Wow you'd think that developers can just crap out great games. it takes time, this generation just started. Sony still hasn't killed off the PS2. I don't know if you remember last gen, but when it first started out the first few years were horrible as well. Funny how people easily forget about the past when the future is here.

You may want to take into account that you are 4 or5 years older and maturing goes hand in hand with outgrowing hobbies.

As an older gamer (27) I feel with each gen, gaming has gotten better and better, both graphically and gameplay.

why you completely disaproved of Wii is out of my mind, Wii games completely own these titles:
platformers: R&C, SMG.

3D fighters: DOA4, SSBB.

JRPGS: FF13, FE 10.

Puzzle: mercury meltdown, zack & wiki.

adventure: zelda, uncharted.


and people say Wii has bad games? PFFT...

Fixed it and removed everything that is opinion such as games that have not come out yet so u have no idea if they are goign to be good or not to games that some people will feel are not good. Personally I found over half the games you mentioned as not fun (i played them and did not like them) so point not proven.

its all going to be point of view. If you can't find any games you like though, then you must be a negative person in general. There isn't a ton of mind blowing games out right now, but there is still games out that are enjoyable.

I agree, all the good games now are action-adventure, fps or racing games. Kinda sad really.
