I see a few peeps stating that this is the worst gen yet......but I couldn't disagree more....I have played the 360 more than any console to date and the introduction of HD gaming and the graphics that are capible this gen...I am very pleased so far.

Focus on recycling mostly everything that was innovated in previous generations instead of trying something completely new and unorthodox. Only a small minority of the developers are actually creating new and exciting games... at least from what I have seen.

But most don't make you gasp and awe at them. The PS2 had plenty of games that did that.

it just got going. and the system thats the successor to the console that had the fewest exclusives was off to a slow start and got going in the games department. started getting exclusives and even bigger 2nd party projects.

PS3 is looking good in 08. and the Wii has had all its big Nintendo games come out in 1 year so far with Mario Kart Wii online allready for Q1 08.

Trust me there are more amazing games on the way.

The 32-64 bit era was the worst for me.

It pioneered 3D but quality gaming that made the most of it was spread pretty thinly.

right now if we are going on more creative games. thats only a small list.

With Bioshock and to the degree in terms of just plain old fun factor the online download games like Roboblitz and Calling all Cars. Also Dead Rising was a fun game, come on that game should have had online MP. that would have been fun.

But we are getting way to many sequals, and the new ips arent living up the hype unless its a few exceptions like Gears of War. Lost Planet was good, but for all that money more was expected. Dead Rising and Siants Row were fun but nothing amazing. Dead Rising was fun as heck though.

THis gen isnt as productive as fast as previous gens, but i bet it will get going.

I'm sure we will get some unique games this gen, but more than that I think it's mainly because of third party uncertaincy, specially in Japan. They took too long (and still taking) to decide which system(s) they're gonna support. Add to that the increase in developing costs, that increases the pressure of commitment.

It feels like the gaming machine is still not greased enough yet.

So far, I guess this has been the slowest. I wouldn't say it's been horrible or anything but there hasn't been that spark that past gen's have had. There's great games everywhere, well on Wii and a couple on 360, not too sure about the PS3, but everything is just kinda quiet. 5th gen (PS1,Saturn,N64)was the best IMO, There were tonnes of awesome games and there was a real sense of competition and not everyone cared as much about the graphics. It's was more about the games themselves. Last gen was pretty crap overall though.

This Gen at the moment = Trying to Drive a Car without Gasoline.

Or in Sony's Case Trying to drive a Car without a Car.

I really think the poor performance of Sony and the PS3 left everyone flat-footed. I really don't think they were expecting it to be like what it's been.

PS/Nintendo 64 generation? I actually went outside to play sports back then. :D majadamus

Are you ******* kidding me? The only time I went outside during that gen was to walk to my cousins house to play N64.

Goldeneye, SSB, Perfect Dark, Mario Kart 64, Turok 64, Star Fox 64, Twisted Metal, Spyro the Dragon, Syphon Filter, Jet Moto, MGS, Tekken 3, Crash Bandicoot 2 and junk food was GOD to me back then.

5th gen was the best generation of gaming ever!!!!!!

I really think the poor performance of Sony and the PS3 (and Wii success) left everyone flat-footed. I really don't think they were expecting it to be like what it's been.

Publishers and Development houses are reallocating funds aways from 360 and PS3 to support Wii as we speak.

This Gen = Flipped over on it's side like a Screaming Elephant on crack, foaming at the mouth.

Technically for the industry as a whole, this gen is great. On system wars however...tooooo many people complaining about every last detail REALLY depresses me.

This is the worst - the generation of more FPS than ever before, whoop-de-friggin-doo! I still don't think I've played one better than Goldeneye yet, it's seriously pathetic. Where did the spark of originality in game design go? I'm fed up of playing the same damn games I've been playing for 15 years with nothing to get excited about but new graphics.

The last time I got really excited about the gaming industry was when the first MMOGs started to appear, but even those have become stale over time. And a lot of them suck a whole lotta meat, attracting only retarded and immature pr*cks. *cough* WoW *cough*.
