Game industry.... Groan.

This post isn't going to be a long, detailed rant about the game industry. Rather, it's going to be a list of things that really annoy me about the industry or things I hate about it. I love everything about gaming, so I am not going to be holding back. That means Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo plus any developers I can think if will be included in the list.


  1. SEGA has kept making more Sonic games. Seriously SEGA, NOBODY WANTS SONIC ANYMORE!! GIVE US SHENMUE 3 ALREADY!!!
  2. Nintendo is always behind on technological trends. Nintendo, there is no need to do this. You have money, put some of it into making a futureproof home console.
  3. Ubisoft making annual Assassin's Creed games. Come on Ubisoft, it's obvious you are just doing this for the money now. 
  4. Activision release CoD annually yet, the game has remained fundamentally the same since CoD 3. *sigh*
  5. Sony fanboys constantly talking about graphics. I know, fans aren't part of the industry. I still hate it. So I am including it.
  6. DLC endings or mission packs. Just give me the full game.
  7. Free-to-Play. You think it's great because it's free to play. Then come the dreaded micro-transactions. 
  8. Capcom is churning out so many Street Fighter IV games. Now add Ultra to that list. Groan. JUST MAKE ONE BLOODY VERSION WITH EVERYTHING IN IT!
  9. Capcom releasing Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom 3. The worst part is that I actually bought both versions. Only to realise they are basically the same, I spent £30 for four characters. Groan.
  10. EA. I hate EA for being EA.That is all.
  11. Microsoft thinks Watching TV is more important than gaming on a game console. Silly Microsoft.

Well, that's just a short list of a few things that annoy me or I hate about that the current state of the game industry. Don't agree with me? Anything to add?  Don't forget to let your voice be heard and comment below!

Silly Sony

Silly Sony, they do some shocking things. You know how this goes. This constant fixation on graphics - I find this so infuriating. I like substance over style. To me, Sony and their fans just seem to look to aesthetics and then talk about gameplay. Just watch any Sony conference to see what I'm talking about. The PS4 unveiling conference. It was just full of tech demos and cutscenes . Then they tried to say all of the games will look that during gameplay, then at E3. They just didn't. But what annoys me the most is the fan response to this stuff. They always blow things out of proportion.  There are so many games I have played on PS3 that people said were aesthetically amazing, only to find the game was boring and wasn't actually that good in my opinion. Once such game was Heavenly Sword, everyone said it looked amazing, which it did. But. The game was so boring!! I just think people should stop saying games are good because they appear to be good. Actually play the...

Switch Hype

Even PS4 characters are hyped for Switch! As I mentioned in my last post, which you can read  here.  I am now the proud owner of a Nintendo Switch. I couldn't be happier. I have downloaded a few demos (I don't have the money for all the games I want right now) and I am really enjoying Fire Emblem Warriors.  Just like Hyrule Warriors before it, it is so much more than a Dynasty Warriors game with Nintendo characters. Well, I could write more. But I made a video instead. To save you from doing anymore reading than necessary for today. You are welcome. Watch here.
