Thanks! And I completely understand what you mean. I was with you up until that rather out-of-place last paragraph! Games are a sort of art form, but I prefer to think of it as an art separate from the kind that draws "poofy" people.
A perfect way to say it, "I want something worth playing." One of my philosophies on game dev is that if you "get" it, you'll take a good idea and intuitively make it awesome, whether or not you purposefully think of all the intricate puzzle pieces that make it fit together.
Really what you said was right, it was just a little scarily profound. Or... "poofy."
Yes I too am enjoying it more. Seems so much more limitless yet they haven't hyped it. Although like the other Sims games, I spend so long making them and their houses that I get tired of it and turn it off after an hour or two
Neuro, your rant as I just read it is dead-on accurate. OMC, you've probably read very few of my posts, because it's hard for me to summarise everything into a few short sentences. Sometimes one just gets carried away and lazy at the same time and starts ranting about nonsensical nothings instead of figuring out what to do next with developing games and projects (talking about me here).
As for games in 2010, I really don't care much for commercial games anymore, as I have not the money to buy them or the time to play them. I tend to make time only for klik games and the commercial games that I already have, writing on these forums, and working at creating my projects.
Perhaps I will have a few games created by 2010 though.
Blood of the Ancient One, Seen only as Shadow, Faster than Lightning, Fierce as the Greatest Dragon, Nearly Invisible, Floating in a Dream, Entered through the Demon Door, Destroyer of Evil in a Realm with a Red Sky Scarred, Who could I be ?
Lol, I'm going to buy Sims 3 once it comes attached with the first expansion. Every Sims game has been unplayable without the expansions

What?
None of the Sims games are really games without expansions. Usually have some crippling bug that makes the game so annoying. Remember the first one? Without expansions, the first Sims would completely forget their friends after 7 days or so (didn't have the long term friendship thing). Sims 2 had this annoying bug with the buildings, which was why I bought the expansion. I heard Sims 3 doesn't have much furniture and has some problem with Sims randomly reproducing, so I'm going to wait for the expansion for them to sort it out.

I'm hoping Champions Online is good. City of Heroes/Villains with even more character customisation? The ability to create your own arch-nemesis and have epic battles? Yes please
I kind of agree with you Neuro, art-form games that just have gameplay tacked on as a rather unpleasant necessity really are a pain in the proverbial. Some of them don't even manage the gameplay part. Also if you're sick of art-form games, you should probably stay away from The Last Guardian...
And my only experience with the Sims 3 is my friend making me as a character, and the resulting text I received a few days later: "You're dead in the Sims." Apparently I drowned in a holding-your-breath competition against some random women in a swimming pool.
There are 10 types of people in the world: Those who understand binary and those who don't.
"I heard Sims 3 doesn't have much furniture and has some problem with Sims randomly reproducing, so I'm going to wait for the expansion for them to sort it out."
Doesn't really matter, you can paint just about any surface,clothing item or furniture piece withyour own textures. As for sims randomly reproducing I haven't come across that yet, nor do I see why it really matters.
And Radon don't try to act smart, it doesn't match your British club-lout exterior.

Even if Metroid has a different feel to it, it should still turn out to be a good game.
Team Ninja used to make excellent games. Hopefully they still do, considering the loss of Tomonobu Itagaki, who came up with most(maybe all?_?) of their shit. They are amazing coders, none the less. Maybe this will net them more appreciation, since NG was so underrated. "its too hard". I hope they make metroid ridiculously hard =p.
Golden sun 3 looks awesome gaphics wise. I love low poly 3d stuff, makes things interesting. Never played part 2, mainly because im scared of the talking. They talked for fucking centuries in GS1.
They only talked for centuries if you read the un-important text, if you just read the important details then its pretty smooth. And GS2 is just badass I love the Sol Blade and Meggido.

Tell me about it. They already released two expansions, the latest just an add on adding new missions ¬_¬; Damn they really overhyped that game
