[quote name='sarausagi']Wow, couldn't have said it better myself.
I will add, as much as some people say it's "quirky" and "Japanese", I definitely feel a "Western" touch to it. The visuals, the art style, even the music, align themselves with the tastes of the cynical 20 something non gamers that seem to praise it as a "technical marvel" or "bold stroke of innovation." The only people I know who seriously like the game are the tattooed, grunge types that walk into EBGames holding a large Starbucks beverage, carrying a messenger bag with a bunch of pins on it, and listening to an obscure indie rock band on their iPods..
All I know is Katamari, the DS, the Wii, are all signs of the inevitable fall of "gaming", signs of a day we won't be able to play truly good, complex games, and all there will be is licensed movie games, monopolized football games, and so called "innovation" and "broad appeal"[/QUOTE]
Ugh. Just boo about the complaints to the Wii, I'd even arge the opposite and say your comment belongs more with the PS3 and 360. I mean you really think Strat and turn based RPG's will be completely ditched with the Wii? As it stands I just think Nintendo is trying to get people more in to the game. And sometimes complex can be another word for boring. I think some people are starting to forget about gameplay.
Now for bad game Morrowind is pretty bad, just the fatigue meter and attacking annoyed me but "Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon" is
ing awful. I had to FORCE myself to finish it. I think what disappointed me was Genki even made it. The Gameplay WAS solid but just boring. I'd like to see more Wuxia(Martial Arts) Fantasy based game in that setting style that are original and please don't mention "Jade Empire" to that effect. Why can't someone hire a Hong Kong director to do a game in that vein?
You also got problems for not liking FFVI. I just can't help but think something is wrong with you. Chuckle. GOD I hate how FFVII fanboyism always seems to run rampant over rightful FFVI fanboyism.

It's like they think VII is the first # in the FF series and I hate them for it.
