@Maakies: I'm sure it will correlate directly to uber-nerd slobs who have never heard of a duster. The fact these people also can't find something enjoyable on the Wii is probably a coincidence. Read more

@pieyow: They don't count Wii Sports because it comes with the Wii whether you actually want it or not. Read more

@Boox: I'm surprised. I was 16 when the original came out, and I'm pushing 30 now. There aren't many franchises that I enjoyed as a child that are still around for children today. It's pretty surprising and impressive. Read more

@lineypi: Can't comment on that. Where I live, Wii games never drop in price because of their evergreen nature. I mean Twilight Princess is still at full price. Read more

So, how about that Wii fad? It'll die off in 2008, right? Read more

@lineypi: It's an evergreen title. Whereas many games aim themselves at the gaming geek who is impatient and must have it now and then drop in price and notability quickly, Nintendo games seem to realise that not everyone rushes out there and gets a game on launch. Hell, some people *gasp* save up. :P Read more

@For_the_love_of_games: The problem with the Internet and sites like this is that it gives you the wrong idea of just how much of the market us geeks are. It's not 1986 any more and lots of people game. :) Read more

@ThisLife17: Well, they can, but they'd have to have a pretty justified reason why they would do it in America for a lot more than it would cost them to manufacture them in China. Read more

@AlKusanagi: Why not pay them what they're worth, then? Oh, that's right, it takes away from profit for stockholders. Forgot that the universe revolves around their bank balance. Read more

@gregfromtheinternet: Corporations are legally obliged to make their shareholders the maximum amount possible. It has been this way since some Americans sued and won against a corporation for not making them the most money. Thus, companies are legally obliged to do this kind of crap so their shareholders can put Read more

Why only Microsoft? Apple was damned equally, if not more, in this report as well. Are you saying, Luke, that you don't consider the iPad a true gaming platform? ;) Read more

Thank you, Mike, for baring your soul once again to us. For some of us, myself included, it speaks to us in volumes and reminds us that we are not alone. First the MMO tale, and now this one, I find myself sadly nodding in recollection of my own similar events. Read more

@Spidery_Yoda: Sorry, thought you were being sarcastic. The Internet needs a symbol for it. :P Read more

@Spidery_Yoda: A game you can't work on because it's held up in legal proceedings? That aside, there is more to money in life, dude. It's far more important to look forward to waking up every morning. Read more

I wouldn't be so quick to assume this is in support of Jason and Vince. It's already been reported that not everyone is going to Respawn. Bruce Ferriz is heading to Big Red Button, for example. Read more

@Durian10: They're not necessarily. There have been reports that none of the ex-IW guys are actually going to Respawn. Bruce Ferriz, for example, is going to Big Red Button. Read more
