You told me TP was amazing, I got it, and it was trash... so yeah...
TRUTH.
Honest to God, what was wrong with TP? Yes, it was pretty much a remake of OoT, but is there a problem with that?
It was not fun. That's what was wrong. I'm a busy person, and it wasn't fun. Did it have a great storyline? After 10 hours it was about as entertaining as a pile of dogcrap... so I guess I never reached the part with the good story...

As for PW, there wasn't a time when I wasn't interested in it, Bul, hence why I randomly bought it this past summer.


:p
It's a demanding game, yes... and the first couple of hours are uninteresting, just as any other Zelda game. 10 hours? Doubt it took you that long to get past the first stage.

I dunno man, I dunno. I'm just saying, you need to take a few more risks. Some are rewarding, some are not... but if you don't take any, you don't know what you're missing. For better, or for worse.
I agree. I took a risk with Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock and Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn. I thought I was going to hate the games seeing how I don't enjoy RPG's and the price of Guitar Hero III was a little high. You were constantly praising Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn so I decided that I may enjoy the game. I bought it in November and I love it! Though the game makes me ill everytime I play it, I still enjoy playing it because it's so fun. By the way, it's the best Wii game I own. It's even better than Super Mario Galaxy.

As for Guitar Hero III, it was worth the $100.00 but I found it to be pretty difficult. Despite the difficulty issues, Guitar Hero III is an awesome game!
 
Take risks? I work my butt off to make money at a crappy job. Why would I take a risk, sacrificing 6 hours of hard work for a video game that may end up being a piece of trash, like TP? I used to buy more games than I do now, because the overall quality of games has dropped so much. I've always loved the Metroid series, for example. But, I didn't like the Prime games as much as the classic Metroids. Well, Prime 3 came out, and I was weary, but ended up getting it over winter break... and it wasn't even Metroid. I think I played it an hour before I gave up on it.

Video games are not supposed to take 10 hours to get into, or be impossible to beat, or be awkward to control... they have one sole purpose - to be FUN.

So far, on Wii, the only games that have truly been fun for me are Galaxy and Wii Sports. I love GH and GHII, so I'm sure GHIII would be fun, but that costs way too much for a video game - no game is worth $90, period. And, if the Metroid I've always loved isn't that good, I don't know what is. I've pretty much lost faith in Nintendo being able to create a fun 1st party game, since they're only worried about making an epic story or some crap for hardcore fans, and could care less about the game being fun for people who have a life and can't play the game for 50 hours in a week. As for 3rd party games, although there are a lot more on the Wii than the Cube, most are not the same games coming out for 360 and PS3... most are just "cheap ripoffs" of 360/PS3 games... or just not worth buying at all.

No, I haven;t bought Zack & Wiki yet, but in all honesty, is a point and click game worth $40? No. I don't care how awesome it is... when it goes down to $15-20, maybe I'll reconsider.

I'm busy worrying that they're making way too many casual games- Wii Sports, Wii Play, Wii Fit, Wii Chess, Wii Music, Brain Training, Big Brain Academy, DS Air, Touch Generations, Flash Focus, and so on, and so on...

I couldn't agree with you more.
 
MySims
Twilight Princess
Zack and Wiki
Super Mario Galaxy
Super Paper Mario
Lego Star Wars Complete Saga :)barf: on Wii)
Radiant Dawn
Wii Sports/Play
Metroid Prime 3
Mario Strikers Charged

That's all the decent stuff I can think of right now.
 
And to Gohan's post I must say that well yea I do agree 3rd parties are putting out a lot of shovel were video games cost the right price at $50. It can take years to make a game. That's 24 hours a day and about 300 days a year. I don't need to do any math to say that's a lot of work. Budget priced games are usually just to make quick cash. Sometimes they are good, but on a regular basis budget priced games are either crap or something that's really old.

But yea I do agree, as kids $50 isn't easy to come by, but saying that $50 is over priced is just outrageous.
 
I have:

Fire Emblem: Radiant dawn
Guitar Hero 3
Super Mario Galaxy
Metroid Prime 3
Twilight Princess
Super Paper Mario
Wario Ware Smooth Moves
Mario Party 8
Call of Duty 3
Wiiplay
Super Monkey Ball Banana Blitz
Redsteel
Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition

The last 5 months have arguably been the best in gaming history. If you can't find a game you like then you need to lower your standards.

It's true, what with Metroid Prime, Bioshock, Halo, Guitar Hero, Mass Effect, Call of Duty, Super Mario Galaxy, and The Orange Box.
 
Hold on a second, Darth. As Prop mentioned, the last 6 or so months of gaming have been absolutely amazing.

Super Mario Galaxy
Bioshock
Mass Effect
Ratchet And Clank Future: Tools of Destruction
Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
Zack & Wiki (yes it is worth $40... if you say it's not just because it's a point and click, then I question how much of a gamer you are... some of the best games are point and click)
Metroid Prime 3
Phoenix Wright 3
Contra 4
Picross DS
Guitar Hero III
Call of Duty 4
The Orange Box
Crysis

And TONS more I'm forgetting about. Don't use the "THESE GAMES DONT INTEREST ME!!!!11!" excuse -- just because they don't interest YOU doesn't mean they're not quality.

...Woah. Do you have any idea what you're talking about?

The Nintendo of today IS THE EXACT OPPOSITE. Most of their games DON'T have an epic story, and are instead pick-up-and-play... "fun".

I don't care for those games, and instead opt for the demanding games, even if it takes me a year to finish them. I'm not going to waste my time on Wii Sports and Wii Fit...
 
You guys wouldn't understand where Darth is coming from. He likes fun games, such as Mario Tennis (and so do I, who doesn't?). He doesn't like games that you pay $50 for and play it for 1 week and let it go. You're not seeing his point of view here, video games aren't what video games used to be.

Galaxy best game? BS, I played it for about 2 weeks, got 84 stars haven't picked it up since. The only good games left are the online multiplayers and there arent that many of them.

Guess what, man? This isn't the fault of videogames... it's his fault.

Yes, I said it. It's the fault of growing up. When he was more or less a child, he had time to play games... now, he doesn't... it's as simple as that. He said it himself; he used to be buy a ton more games... Why? Simply put, because he had more time for games...

If he had more time, I'm sure he'd see my point of view, as well. I love Mario Tennis, too... and guess what? I bet you haven't even heard of a game called SEGA Superstar Tennis comin' out with SEGA characters... that resembles Mario Tennis A LOT. Coming out in March, I hear.

No, the "hardcare" games these days are nothing like the old ones. They suck, waste of $50.

It's going to be released for PS3, XBOX 360, Nintendo DS, PS2, and Nintendo DS!

Then why haven't I been having fun with any Wii games? And Darth was arguing that very little good games for the Wii have been released as of late, lets see your list with ONLY Wii games.

Super Mario Galaxy
Fire Emblem: Radiant Dawn
Zack & Wiki
Metroid Prime 3
Guitar Hero III

Hmm.... Why thats not very many at all.
 
I swear to God some gamers are so unappreciative of games, always demanding innovation in a non broken system, and a lot of the time denouncing a game they adored a month ago.

I am in the minority of gamers I guess. I have extreme patience and enjoy taking my time.
