Thoughts of the Year

Well I've been busy, and now seeking another employer, so updating this site has been the least of my worries. But I've checked up on anything 'new' in the world of games and films, and to be honest there isn't anything that I didn't expect. Dead Rising Wii still sucks, the new screens and advertising for RE5 still makes thing seem like an RE4 clone, there isn't much new news on the side of the new Nightmare movie, nor the Robocop movie. To be honest all this news I catch up with, but it depresses me that I cannot change a damn thing, well, not yet anyway.

Which brings me to another point.

I'm a massive fan of the Nintendo Wii (but not a massive fan of Nintendo, I used to be a Sega man myself until Sony came along). However I'm angry; Games companies have no respect for one of the largest profit making consoles of all time.

There is no quality control when it comes to Wii games. All it is, is a gimmick; there is no thought put into 99% of all Wii games.

First of all there is the connotation with Wii games and bad graphics. This annoys me because if the Gamcube could produce beautiful graphics such as Resident Evil and Resident Evil 4, and the Wii apparently has twice the processing power; then why the hell haven't we got games twice as pretty as Resident Evil 4?!

I tell you why, it's because games companies just can't be arsed with actually producing a Wii game that looks nice. They just want to rush the game so much because they know that as long as it has the "Wii" logo on the box they think people will buy their bullshit.

I just wish games developers would but a little effort into their games.

The next thing is the motion sensitive controls: Games companies have little to NO consideration to whether their game needs motion sensitive controls or not. Instead of putting some intelligent thought to stop and think how the controls would feel natural or forced they just slap on some generic controls where you use your best masturbation skills to do the most simple task on screen.

Games companies have little to no respect to the console that makes them money. The wii has a potential to be a great console, but it seems that most developer's would rather pump out lots of shit than great games. Look at what happened to the Atari consoles after a saturation of shit: Learn from the Video Game Crash of '83 guys. Nintendo may not be as good as it used to be, but it shouldn't be discarded, it was sad enough to see Sega go.

Another thing that caught my attention is the fact the Christain Bale told McG to fuck off, and told him the the T4 script was shit, although agreed to do after McG described his vision for T4, and agreed to do it once that vision was down on paper.

However all I've seen from T4 is mindless explosions and car chases with no character development. So I'm guessing it was the grabage truck filled with gold bars that they parked outside his house that changed his mind.....
