With the video game market seeming to want violent video games, there could potentaly BE a huge market for E rated games. Now beffore you start scratching your head thinking "what on earth is that crased mad man thinkiing?" Consider this: Violent games get boring after a while, due to the fact that they just sort of continue the same "shoot man 1 without man 2 getting you as you go in to dark, depressing room 4" patern. And please note that is an observation of freinds playing violent games, not my own opinion 9If it was mine, this blog entry would be pointless!). Which brings me to my topic line; Mario. He started in a era of video gaming where the world accepted games that were-off-the-wall strange and had little plot to back them up. And even then there were violent games, and they were popular as well (example: Death Race). But now, I feel that we are forgetting the wonderous world that is games like Mario, Sonic, and the many other series with silly, strange, games. Yes, There are still some good, poopular E-games of the adventure jonra (like Pikmin and Animal Crossing) But the qontity of such games is falling. For example, the Mario Games had a noticable dip (Super Mario Sunshine) Recently. Why has the quantity gone down? why has the quality gone down? Because there getting ignored, and being considered 'kids games' (and anyone who has gotten 120 stars in super mario 64 knows such is not true). And by thinking of E-Games as kids games, They BECOME just that. So, if everyone were to open there hearts to that sort of an idea, I believe the video gaming industry would be a better place. (PS:Soryy for the two rant-ish things in a row! :-)
