Remember that guy, the self-professed non-gamer who hated the Wii, but liked the Wii, but hated the Wii? Yeah, the flip-flopper. Well, that guy just got pwned by one of his own colleagues, who has been reading right along with the masses. And in response, he scoffs, "there's one difference between Stan and me on the Wii: I've played it."Ouch. That looks like it could use a little burn cream right there.
ITWire's Alex Zaharov-Reutt got his hands on the Wiimote at a press event, and he scoffs at Stan Beer's ignorant commentary. After all, is it graphics that make a "serious console?" No. It's fun, and the Wii is damned serious about fun. Like so many others, he praises the versatility and immersion of the control scheme, and even has props for the graphics -- maybe they aren't up to the standards of the 360 and the PS3, but they're still visually appealing. What's important is that it plays well, and he believes that it will be a hit among all sorts of gamers. And that's the informed opinion.
