Gaming has changed.

It's no longer about ideas, stories, or experiences.
It's an endless series of market battles fought by CEOs and publishers.
Gaming - and its consumption of fun - has become a well-oiled money machine.
Gaming has changed.
"Gamers" carry warped tastes forged by the paid media, use consoles that milk them for every last penny possible.
"Journalists" like those at IGN and G4 enhance and regulate their ignorance.
Developer control. Information control. Emotion control. Market control.
Everything is monitored and kept under control.
Gaming has changed.
The age of gaming has become the age of control...
...all in the name of creating mass amounts of profits.
And he who controls the profits...controls gaming.
Gaming...has changed.
When gaming is under total control, money grubbing becomes routine.

Yeah, Sonic and Mega Man suck now, the old releases were part of the 10% of good games, the new ones aren't. And you act like generic games are new, come on, it's always been that way. It's always been about money, it's always been expensive to develop and produce games so of course companies are mostly going to stick to ripping off successful games.

Look at the NES, how many games came out for that? 1,000? Being extremely generous, there's maybe 100 good ones. The rest are shitty clones, shitty games based on movies or other franchises and shitty ass sports games.
