I don't hate you in the slightest, I find your music taste
to be questionable and everything else you post could
probably not be posted.

that really is a shame because I never said anything
annoying or insulting about anyone on here... but I see
people get ignored or disliked without no reason... I love
Aphex Twin and also stupid stuff like deadmouse like other
stuff...

But this is a topic about videogames so you are just being
really off topic now ! :D

If you are looking for innovative games you must buy an
i-phone or and android handheld.
Besides that, i am wondering why so many violent games are
being produced. I am wondering about the emotional
development of its consumers.
I don't think these games are helpful

yup I kinda get what you are saying, didn't get it while
watching the conferences but it's pretty true no more
innovative or human feeling related games except for :
journey
maybe the onls heart warming game of the event....

got an android phone but couldnt care less about it man,
hate nasty waves so it's almost always turned off... And
since I'm not 8 years old for 21 years now, portable games
just arent appealing to me now just don't care in the bus
just don't care at all.... I had a game boy in black and
white back some day but now playing wioth a portable device
doesn't even cross my mind...

Well than it is over. Video games are boring no matter on
which platform, time to get a life or do something else.
Thats how i feel. I am not interested in stories about
metaphysical entities or boring war simulations. I have lots
of free time on my hands

There are some incredible genius gamsters out there, just
incredible what they can do. but, imagine what they could do
in this real world. all the problems we have out here , we
need these guys out here!! play station was made to allow
the multi nationals more time to build Skynet. They are
playing the real ************* game, boy.

its all about mw online for me, im hopelessly addicted to
it, cant play anything else, even black ops. occasionally
dip into forza, but then am back onto mw again. if only
forza 4 could somehow merge a TAR 21 assault rifle onto the
dashboard one of the cars and i would be be happier than a
pig in shite. e3 was massively disappointing, but then again
it is every year, except that this year everyones creaming
themselves over the halo anniversary edition, so what who
cares?. looking forward to the portal 2 DLC this summer
anyways.

the current state of video games is shit.there's no
denying.

i know i'll probably draw some aggro with this statement,
but consoles are in part to blame.

why?

big game developers who used to concentrate on pc games HAVE
to release console versions (xbox360, ps3) in addition to
the usual pc versions in order to make a big (i.e. bigger)
profit nowadays. this is mainly because pirating is easier
on a pc.

now, most games -- in theory -- function just as well with a
mouse and a keyboard as with a gamepad.

there are exceptions, however, as with the rpg genre. rpg
games have always been about numbers, about stats, about
menus and other geeky stuff... most importantly it needed A
LOT of clicking around with a MOUSE.

consoles with their gamepads are NOT all the user friendly
in this regard. fuck you who thinks otherwise.

what's the result then? well, take mass effect as an
example. it's NOT an rpg game. it's an action game.

i agree, what really annoys me is the hype that surrounds a
game in the press and online, them when its released the
same hypers review said release and give it a 6, a 7 etc -
because they are right they are shite dull and ropey, fuck
look at what they did to the crysis game? its dreadful, even
on PC. i understand that this is a good process to selling a
agmes magazine etc, but it still annoys me.

most developers seem to troll out any old iron, who cares
whether it is any good? its not very often that a
groundbreaker ala bioshock, mirrors edge (had its problems
but forward thinking) or say portal comes along.

goldeneye on the N64. now that was a good game.

Video games are doing just fine. It's the industry that
needs to die. Or if not die, it only needs get a tiny little
bit shittier and we can swallow our nostalgia and never care
about the fucking video game industry any more than we care
about Hollywood or major record labels. It will be awesome.
