So you're not going to allow me to respond to a blanket statement with another blanket statement? Thx Hitler.
Also, I will continue to buy and play each (EA) NHL release because there is nothing I enjoy more than smoking the Bruins, Red Wings, and the Capitals with the Blackhawks over LIVE.I love to talk shit and send people messages that gamestop is having a trade in special this week for NHL , that one is reserved for when people disconnect before the game is over.
I hope you didn't hurt yourself jumping on that blackhawks bandwagon. I often here people complaining about current generation games sucking. I was addressing a reason to this which is to the repetitive nature of over hyped and over advertised games. I have no problem with sports games but every time I walk into gamestop it seems that half of the display boxes are the new madden/ncaa fb game or basketball game coming out.
I come from all walks of life and play everything from NES to the 16 and 32-bit games to XBox and PC past and present. I must agree that this gaming generation era sucks the big one. I have my reasons:
1.) Barely any original gaming music lately
2.) Games come with gaming pass to prevent used games market. I hate this, especially for PC games!
3.) Achivments are nice but most people judge you on just that.
4.) Capcom is shit. Nuff' said.
5.) Nintendo doesnt want to release J-RPGs, despite fan approval. If it wasnt for gamestop doing something nice for once by putting in the money for publishing rights for Xenoblade we wouldnt of gotten it here in the USA. Just hope they release Last Story and Pandora's Tower as well.
6.) Massive hardware problems with Xbox (who somewhat fixed the problem many years later, better late than never I guess?) and PS3.
Big Gamer from Nintendo to Playstation to PC and everything inbetween, but closest to my heart is the one and only Original NES!

You know those are all valid, logical points but you know what? People have been saying "this generation of gaming" sucks since forever.
This may be incredibly hard to believe, but there were people saying "this gen sucks" in the NES era, the 16bit era, etc etc etc. I was shocked back then, but they had perfectly valid, logical points to back up those opinions too.
Don't get me wrong, I love the 8bit and 16bit generation with all my heart... but this is just like anything, music, movies, etc etc. People just love to put "their generation" as the benchmark of what's good. It generally seems that the people who can see the value of something regardless of where, what and when it came from is the exception not the rule.
In terms of modern games, the last game I really enjoyed was Space Marine on the PC.
