lets just say...everyone says nintendo games are kiddy because.... tehy have jumping dinosaurs, instrumental apes, plumbers racing each other, and a plumber exploring a haunted house to get to the other plumber. if any good games the nintendo system has made, id say its metroid prime.
nintedo games are kiddy because 99% of it's successful games are kiddy, and the only game from nintendo that isnt kiddy is resident evil 4 (also coming on ps2) and metroid. Im sick of nintendo fans using resident evil 4 and metroid as the only example of a successful non kiddy game from nintendo
It's annoying when Sony fans ignore the fact that there are countless child based games on the PS2.
Zelda isn't 'kiddy'. Nor is Eternal Darkness. Nor the many games which are on all three consoles.
I guess real men like to Dancemat.
Consoles are 'kiddy'. They're toys. Let's not pretend because we are pretend raping a pretend prostitute, in lame, jerky graphics, with an abysmal fighting system, we are grown men indulging in adult activities.

I dunno which of the new consoles I'm going to get. I HIGHLY doubt I'll get the Xbox360 as I don't even own a regular Xbox and have no plans to get one....no real good games for it. Halo? Waaaaaaay overrated. It's fun in multiplayer deathmatches but that's about it.
I'll probably get the Revolution (yay for being able to get all the old-school games!) and then whenever a Final Fantasy game gets released for PS3, I'll get that...though since FFXII is going to be for PS2, that'll be a while off.
BTW, on the kiddy game thing....some of the most fun games I've ever played were kiddy ones. Mario Kart 64 and Yoshi's Story are still two of my favorites, and I'm 19, going on 20. Katamari Damacy for PS2 is one of the simplest, yet utterly addicting and hysterical games that I've ever played. They're just plain fun.
He said they both have games children can play. He never said they don't both have serious games.
My young nephew clocked Vice City in about 3 weeks. The same nephew who loves Mario Kart.
All you Sony felchers keep referring to GTA which is the biggest case of emperor's new clothes ever. GTA 3 was revolutionary and very good, but very overhyped. Vice City was a step down, but everyone was scared to say so incase they looked dumb. Same with San Andreas. People started going mad that you could ride BMX's. Why is that a credible UPgrade? You're going mad because now you can drive a slower vehicle around an equally sketchy city?
Nintendo took Sony's best franchise in RE, made it's original game better by light years, then went on to make the best game of the series (or best game ever) in RE4. Which Sony are now taking because they couldn't get the series any better than RE3. It took DREAMCAST to produce RE: Code Veronica, which PS2 stole. It took Cube to make RE4, which PS2 stole. PS2 is shit.
You are sanely trying to propose that grown men going to clubs to play SONY'S Dance Dance Revolution, isn't kiddy? Just because it's widely accepted amongst adults doesn't mean it's not a childish concept. Because it is.
I know. I've played it in single-player, co-op, and multiplayer deathmatch. Multiplayer deathmatch is fun because you can blow the shit out of your friends, and I'll say, my friends and I came up with some creative ways to kill each other (and ourselves) while playing....but it's not even as close to being a fraction as great as people make it out to be.
I love DDR, and I'm not a kid it's just a fun way to kill time. I do get what you're saying though.
And I've loved Mario since we got an NES when I was 3 years old.
