WARNING!: This may be uninformed, biased, offensive, and incoherent. Enjoy
After playing some N64 and SNES today i was VERY disappointed.
Not with the games i was playing but with the fact that many of the newer console games i have been playing have been garbage.
I don't know if maybe it is nostalgia, or maybe i just happen to buy all the shitty newer games. I just feel that the "magic" of most games is missing now. I could probably count on my digits how many games i have played in the last 6-8 years that i have invested a real length of time in.
Take out Super Smash, Mortal Kombat, Halo, Pokemon, and RPGs that i have actually found enjoyable enough to finish and that takes me down to probably my fingers alone.
Am i the only person who feels this way? I know there are alot of people on the boards buying games for *multiple new platforms*. How many of them would you say you have sat down and played for 50+ hours? And was this out of actual enjoyment? Or out of necessity for completion, gamer points, or to clean up some of your backlog?
I like to think i can get at least 1 enjoyable hour of game play for every dollar i spend on a game. Pretty much from the Gamecube(You can throw PSX and PS2 in for good measure) on it seems like the crap to awesome ratio has **skyrocketed along with the prices**.
It seems that the games people are spending any real amount of time playing anymore are the heavy hitters, Halo, GoW, Rock Band, Guitar Hero, WoW, etc, etc.
I guess my major problem is with the sheer volume of games coming out, all the cool "innovations", there should really be more of an effort on making things people will truly enjoy rather than trying to make a quick buck and fuck over the poor consumer who is lied to about the actual quality of a product.
*I sadly only have the DS and Wii which could possibly have the highest shit to acceptable game ratio. Then again i don't even try to find anything decent on the ***PS3...*** so who knows
**I know not entirely true i spent 60$s on new N64 games and i am fairly certain SNES and Genny got that high too
*** Tony that PS3 jab was in your general direction if you bother to read this drivel
