Guys, you don't have to ge a genius to figure out what is wrong with the industry; All games are now being considered as "franchises" instead of works of interactive art. As soon as the fat cat producers sit down and start thinking how to make money out of games, THATS when it goes wrong. Call of Duty series, halo series, it just screams lack of ingenuity because companies are too scared to make a risk investment and try and create something new. Thats the only thing thats wrong with the industry, companies want to make cash cows not interesting and intriguing games. There are SOO many games out now that just mimic a previous game instead of exploring new and innovative concepts.

"What's wrong with the industry? "Right" and "wrong" are subjective terms and usually differ, depending on whom you're asking. Ultimately, consumers decide whether the choices a company makes are interesting and worthwhile to them." -Nintendo person. As soon as i read that i spouted a load of profanity, i hate people that instead of giving THEIR oppinion, they do the old "dodge the question" comment, it really illustrates the level of bullcrap these higher ups get to spew without any kind of critique
