This thread if great and full of good points of view. I have to say i found some truth in everyone's opinion. Hopefully the next gen ststems will reinvirorate fresh thinking and utilize the bigger brain power for more than just eye-candy and epic set pieces to do the same thing over and over on again...
It's on a handheld, pretty impressive. I think the point being made is a great game goes beyond great graphics. Or maybe i should just run out and pick up an xbox one so i can play Peggle 2! ;)
Big thumbs up for imagination and fun gameplay taking top seat. Being a gamer for years (those of us 30+ have been playing since games were created), Nintendo has always been an incredible and important part of the progress we all enjoy today. Before anyone calls me some sort of fanboy for one system, I have played/enjoyed/owned the majority of systems out there. For me, what has been lost in recent years is the simple enjoyment of playing a game for the sake of it being, you know... a game. We are a touch too close to having visceral satisfaction of shooting the sh!† outta one another as the benchmark for a good game. If you ask me, GTA V is a piece of crap that aids in the dysfunction of where we are as a nation, but that is way too deep of a conversation for this thread and for the likes of many on this thread.
These games [zelda] provide a level of imagination that is becoming fewer and far between. Good for Nintendo, good for Gamespot, good for the industry. Hopeful many more imaginative games like Zelda grace us on the next generation of systems!
