I cant help notice that alot of the games that are being released soon or have been released seem to be non-original ideas. I remember way back when the PS1 was released we had a variety of games that where new and appealing to PS1 owners( Wipeout, Destruction Derby, and lots more) But now game designers seem to copy old ideas or produce sequels of games. im not saying i don't enjoy playing these games and i can't wait for games like GT3, MGS2, Tekken 4, WWF Smackdown 3 and all the other great games that are on there way but it would be nice to see new original ideas brought out.

What about a bird watching game thats orginal but nobody would buy that. Even if the graphics were true to life and the playability was spot on to real life.

Reflections have Stuntman coming out. I think that idea has a lot of potential, and they've got a pedigree for making games very playable. So fingers crossed.

I've started alot, i guess being bored and also a little drunk makes people do a little strange things, But you have to admit that if a "brand new idea" that looked and played good on the PS2 that most if not all PS2 users would rush out and buy it. When we all bought the PS2 we "expect" the designers to make games worth buying ( if they dont make good games we dont buy them = they dont get as much money) People dont want a new Tomb Raider (im getting fed up with a new tomb Raider) What most gamers want is an original idea that hasn't been used been used before. Something to make the PS2 better than anything else available on the market and OI believe that the software developers for the PS2 have the ability to make the PS2 not only great but the best Console "EVER"!

yeah there is a little too much "updates" that seem to have been around forever. It would be nice to see some new ideas come to life.
