[QUOTE="FPSDad1161"][QUOTE="fernandmondego_"]Same was said last gen.fernandmondego_
As much as I loved the cube, the box, and the cast, I welcomed the next gen with open arms. If I could have picked one of those three from last gen to have forever, it would have been the DC, but that died out in NA before the GCN and Xbox were even released if I remember correctly. The 360, and more so the Wii60 combination has taken what was great about those three systems last gen and enhanced on them greatly. Plus the immense number of games, and actual good games that have come out and are coming out is simply amazing. I could not have asked for a better gen.

You might have been OK with last gen ending but others were not. They wanted it to keep going, it's "It's only been 4 years since the Xbox and gamecube released", "PS2 has only been around for 5 years", "they still have plenty of life left in them" etc... than they would go on to list games that were releasing at the time and how last gen graphics were just fine. Now it's been 7 years sine the 360 released and some still want this gen to continue, it happens every gen.

I don't think there will be that much of a jump next gen. It seems like we have reached a barrier. While I'm sure graphics can always be improved, how much further is the question. I don't think it will be a lot. Were going to be paying for things like all games finally running in 1080p at 60 fps. The areas I think could be most improved are things like physics and AI. Which seem to take a backseat everytime to graphics. I don't see a need for a next gen. Had the jump from last gen been an insignificant improvement, I would have agreed that last gen should not have ended, but it was a huge jump (Wii excluded). I don't think next gen consoles will do much more than what they do now and the graphics are looking amazing as is.

You get kudos for mentioning NV and Beat Hazard.

The rest, lol, you're proving my point that you can't see past your nose.

All I can see is that you don't like good games. I am sorry for you.

Didn't hate the gen but it was wasted on following the cod market which nothing other then BF3 really came close to capture. Most games that had Cod MP died within 2 months. If you think the past 3 years have been the greatest years of gaming then idk what to tell you.

Last gen it was GTA and Halo that seemed to have the most clones. This gen it's CoD. It happens every gen. If a game is successful than it will be copied. It happens in all aspects of business. I've had a blast the past three years of gaming. IDK what to tell you. Sounds like you're just hard to please or living in the past.

im living in the past yet you don't want this gen to end

The big difference between this gen and last was the fact GTA (not counting the psp ports) and Halo didn't come out each year. Both games shared the market. This gen since 2008/9 it has been a complete CoD dominance of the market

Games are still coming out being planned for this gen. Wanting to keep the same system that has a ton of games still coming out for it isn't living in the past. GTA had three iterations last gen, if you don't count the PS2 release of the PSP game. If you do than that's four. It was the CoD of last gen. Granted the GTA games had some time between them, it's still the CoD of last gen. There will always be a product that dominates.

[QUOTE="FPSDad1161"]Play more thant 6 hour long games, FPS games, and casual sh!t then. There has been a ton of great games that don't fall into the categories you mentioned. Publishers will whine as long as there is a reason to whine, and if there isn't a reason, then they will find/make one up. Don't pay attention to it, simple. And making games has always been about making money. It's not a charity. Otherwise games would have been free from the beginning. I'm sorry you found out that the companies don't care about you.

Are you retarded? I said I'm mostly into indie games now. And yeah, name those great games that don't fall into the categories I mentioned. If you think of Mass Effect or Assassin's Creed then you're doing it wrong.

Harp darp. I see you've never looked past your nose. No wonder you have a GeoW avatar and jumped to conclusions regarding me being a PC gamer.

[QUOTE="blue_hazy_basic"][QUOTE="eboyishere"]

Everything that isn't a shooter?

eboyishere

Can you give some actual examples? Most genres get tired very fast, which is why if your over expose them they all but collapse (guitar games for example). The only genre for me I feel under represented this gen are proper RPG's.

Other then RGP's, i would say platformers, arcade style race games (kind of like blur),etc.

What i should have went into detail was I like shooters but the whole modern war genre is getting redundunt.

Fair enough, I agree modern warfare is becoming the WWII of the shooter genre. But where else is there to go really? Theres WWII (done to death), modern combat (done to death), and sci-fi/future combat (pretty much done to death). I love FPS, it's my favorite genre obviously, but I agree it could use some variety in settings, but there just isn't any other settings that would make a good FPS sadly. It is what it is in that sense.

[QUOTE="FPSDad1161"]Why? Let me guess you are a PC gamer who thinks consoles are holding back PC? N30F3N1X

No, nothing like that. Recently I've been playing mostly indie games that even consoles would run on maximum.

I'm tired of mindless 6 hours long games, snail-paced FPSs, and casual sh!t that's just made to sell to a mass market. I'm tired of seeing games catering more to shareholders than gamers. And I'm tired of the idiotic whining from the publishers regarding their "lost" revenue due to piracy and second hand sales.

Better just bury all this generation and hope the next one ends up not being worse, even if that'd be a hard feat to accomplish considering the mess this gen was.

I guess you hated every game this gen then? I don't see what could have possibly come out instead of what did. Unless you have access to some alternate reality.

God no.

It has been going on far too long.

It should've ended last year at most.
