i don't consider a real gamer as a person who owns every console. thats more or less the financially gifted. a real gamer, imo, is a person who may only own one console, but isn't blinded by it's brand or green with envy. a person who can see the reason other gamers prefer other consoles instead of their own and not bash them on it on a daily basis.Kook18
One saying being tossed around here is that real gamers will never play the wii, because of its bad horsepower and fad controls. But the thing is, real gamers aren't the ones who obsess over textures or hi-def, its the ones that care about fun. The wii undeniably has fun games (note: different from games you don't prefer. You can't bash a console for not matching your specific tastes... "coke tastes bad because I think it does"). If you can't enjoy Metroid Prime 3 andTwilight Princess because your a "real gamer", you should probably look into your gaming piorities.
EDIT: Gamespot seems to be taking spaces out of my posts at random
why don't you people go buy and play the game and see if you agree with GS or not? K? that would end this whole debate in one second. it doesn't matter what GS says, it matters if you find that particular game fun or not. i think that is probably the bazillionth time that has been said around here, but there it is again. get it through your thick sculls!KAL_MAN
ooook i think its time to clear this up. how are we supposed to decide if a game is good if we don't play it? and how are we supposed to play it if we don't rent or buy it? so for a lot of gamers reviews can help to decide whether to take the pluge. for games like ssbb and galaxy this isnt as big of an issue because its a known quality, but what about games like manhunt or zack and wiki? if gamespot underrates them its a big deal because somebody that may have got it if it scored above 8, wouldn't, and therefore miss out on a great game.
