Look familiar? That's Tyler Bleszinski (in green), older brother of Gears of War designer CliffyB. Known primarily as a sports blogger, TylerB is also a big gamer. Over at Newsweek's Level Up, he's written an editorial on why he's on edge about the current Wii popularity. From the piece:

My problem is what this new crowd appears to be drawn to. Games like Wii Sports, Wii Play and Cooking Mama have become some of the biggest sellers, and that is what has me worried. If these are the type of games that become blockbusters, then you can count on other gaming companies who cater to the more hardcore gamer—aka me and the milions of others who've been driving this business—to promptly change direction. If we've learned anything about videogame companies, it's that they all are quick to follow each other if one is successful with something.

It's a provocative thought piece — complete with BeeGees-Nintendo Wii comparisons! Sure, it's not quite the bombshell of CliffyB saying that, but they're brothers. So somewhere, deep down, he must feel the same way. Or something. Brian Ashcraft
