Yi

Wii owners also tend to come from well-doing middle class families, who are most capable of buying a hdtv. From my experience, i have 6 friends (college students) who own either 360 or ps3 with only a small tv, and 4 families (including my own) who have a wii WITH a hdtv. That's just based on my personal experience though.

how much do you have in mind for either one? :P

Can i claim the Gold Member prize if i'm a Platinum member?

lol. you are kinda right on that. but seriously, as long as the quality of the game is not jeopardized, i have no problem sharing it with other players who might not be as good.

you should put forward your ideas to the game developers coz they sound really sensible :D

I think the obvious rules are
1) those who want to use it CAN use it
2) those who dont want to use it DO NOT have to use it

You know what, the rules are totally fine with me. I dont ever want to use the demo play, but i'll never hate my lil sister (or my grandma) just because she gets to use it. I'll be happy for her actually. Let us both enjoy our games.

Somehow there's a group of gamers who become envious that less-competent gamers are given the chance to be helped in-game because now nobody can boast that they have completed a tough game. These ppl are sickening. period.

No new DS game at all for the whole week? I'm surprised.

to be honest, i dont really care if a game is a ripoff of another or not. IF they're built good, then they are good and we the gamers can all win. GOW is a damn good game, if a ripoff can get at least 70% as enjoyable as GOW is, then i would be happy to play it.

i dont think it looks awfully bad at all. Is joystiq being sarcastic or what?

I dont think he's 100% wrong though. Because at the end of the day, it all depends on your personal taste. I'd seen my younger cousins really enjoying carnival games on the wii, which i personally think was a total crap. But they really enjoyed it, and they definitely wouldnt like resistance 2, mgs4, or even the zelda games. They are young, and they have difference preferences compared to normal gamers when it comes to gaming.
