I remember playing it at GDC last year. What a blemish it's left.

::quickly shuffled over to the Loco Roco and Daxter booths::

Speaking of which, Loco Roco is pretty innovative, no?

You don't have to know about gaming to enjoy a game and express an opinion.

Indeed - All too unfortunate that the majority of these games get incredibly small market shares.

yea it was kind of embarrassing the other week when i was at my buddy's house playing playstation with his girlfriend's 4 year son, and he kept grabbing my remote control and saying, "NO! that's not how you do it! gimme it" :wtf:


that little ****** kept cheating too.


old school video games FTW!

i like tekken 2 from the first play station. that's about as modern as i got. lol

real gaming for me started with novalogics delta force pc game.
went online, started playing with a bunch of newbs.
us bunch of newbs developed skills and organized.
we learned to communicate via voice-over-net programs.
nova has expanded their original df series to df2, df3.
later the developed bhd, and finally joint-ops, and dfx.
i dont know what my point is, just ing eat it.

what everyone seems to be missing, is that the video game industry is a good 30 years old. there is only so much you can do in the realm of "innovation" as you've got 30 years of games that have done "it" before.

there isnt an infinite amount of innovation that can be made. it has plateud, as have graphics to a lesser extent. you cant keep on improving each and every title. im really not sure what youre expecting. especially since the original gamers like myself are getting on in years and dont have the time like we used to, so now games are being designed for every 15yo whose parent has bought them a 360.

still, if youre willing to play some of the lesser known games, you can still find innovative titles out there.

oh, and doom3 was a superb title insofar as it succeeded at everything it tried to do. it was a remake of the original doom series after all, it wasnt there to be innovative, it was there to be immersive, and myself and a whole lot of other people were scared less by that game.

You don't have to be innovative to make a game with good game play and story behind it. My idea was pretty clear unless you're too dull to understand what I was writing. My idea was simple, they should stop competing against eachother with who can bust out the best graphics and slowly progress and make games enjoyable. 50-60$ doesn't grow on trees and where is the point of this IGN comment coming from? I wouldn't even want to work for IGN in the first place and I'm glad I don't.

Doom 3 may have been an enjoyable title for you but then again it wasn't for me, what I posted is my opinion and I value it as my opinion not as the opinion of millions of people. If you're going to try to impose your hard-ass flaming behavior here because you simply can't handle someones input then don't post at all.

If there's no competition, they'd be churning out even more (I know... is that even possible?) crap than they already do.
