Quote from arkarian:
the wii was neat but didn't turn out as great as it seemed like it might
it's nice having a bit of motion control in certain games where needed but you always have real buttons too

Completely agree with both. The Wii had some good potential but games just got more and more casual and they never accepted Online play (even though it has built in Wifi). Oh and of course there wasn't enough core games but that is pretty common for Nintendo's consoles. Nintendo and the world of capitalism seems to love it though the same way they love the iPhone and Facebook for pushing casual money hungry games.

Motion Controls are pretty overrated but I wouldn't mind them so much if they were an optional control scheme. I didn't mind Skyward Sword or Metroid Prime 3 controls most of the time but yeah there were times when I was like FUCK YOU WII MOTE and wanted to throw it against a wall (Round 3 during final fight against Girhim when controller not swinging the direction my arm is going).

I'm really concerned about the future of controls though. Microsoft is asking developers to think "Touch First" and aim input at touch BEFORE mouse/keyboard. Seriously what is this world coming to. Why are we giving up power and precision for sloppier and sloppier devices.

meh i don't agree really. besides the fact that it would be almost impossible to include in an ac game for story reasons, it just doesn't fit the series. i'd rather play a totally new future-set game from ubi montreal.

because of course anything drawn by the fans (nerdy fat losers) can't compare to the Glorious Concept Art of the original artists (fit, married, gets blowjobs every night).

I think a lot of the fan art is made by people who are just as good as the professionals.  The pros are often older and more polished, but mostly they have a boss or two looking over them to prevent any works being released that still have major flaws in them.

Often the fanart does things that the pros wouldn't, so it's got a new twist at least.  Samus playing chess with chozo, for example.

oh, and porn too.

LOL you would probably hate some of the paintings on my wall, then.  I like 'home-made' art.

I just like things that make you have conversations.  That piece makes me ask lots of questions:  Is she hitchhiking?  If so, where is she going?  Is it even a she?  Is she holding her hand out to feel for rain?  Why does that purple background move so much when I'm trippin?  Things like that.
