it cant get much worse for the gaming industry, considering the population is around 60,000,000.
tbh those games are just the same as we have had for years with updated effects, big wow. the whole industry is stuck to the same genres that we have had for the last 25 years.
[s]wow i cant wait for Gran Turismo 59 its going to be the best thing ever![\s] (this is regarding any game on ps3, 360, wii & the pc)
cash cow games riding off the back of a good name is called the EA Sports madden effect.
i see the wii is kicking ass as at least they are making fun games for the whole family not just saddo 15 year old timmy locked in his darkened room 24 hours a day 7 days a week.
Sucks to be you then if you feel that way. GT alone is showing WAAAY more innovation and possibilities (technical or otherwise) than ANY other publicly offered racing game. Aside from the new physics, damage options, day/night/weather and incredibly accurate tracks you have 2 of the most understated features that will turn gamers and wrench heads on their heads ~ head tracking and GPS Data logging!
I'm sorry av_verbal but I have to definitely disagree with your outlook on at least GT. Gran Turismo 5 is looking to be the TRUE meaning of "definitive racer" this gen! And even die hard PC Sim racers are starting to have their interests peaked with the overall whole package that GT is shaping up to be. One look at the latest in-game GPS datalogger vs Real Life video shows that GT is pretty damned astonishing.
It WILL be a game changer. Just like GT1 was before it...it's not only about "graphics" as most skeptics and biased or misinformed "gamers" try to portray. It's about improved accuracy in physics, accuracy of the tracks (GT pretty much always had this though), improved in game options, added choices of vehicles, added features like day into night racing with rain being a factor plus SOOO much more AND graphics to top it off!
