Why do sequels hardly have any new features from the previous games. Most games now eg. Tekken get one new feature to them and even kisses it's bum but when a really good game comes out and it has loads of extras compared to the last game everyone says, oh well whoppy doo. Games that are really over exaggerated include Gran Turismo, Tekken (all of them) and not to mention the most irritating game EVER, Quake. What's the point of buying sequels if they are exactly the same as the game before it.
1st person shoot-em-ups are now exactly the same, the only difference is the enemies and weapons. Examples of being the same is basically are that you run around a level and kill any thing that isn't you basically.
Playstation 2, why are so many people threwing a bloody fuss over it, everyone is saying how it's brilliant fantasic it'll do anything you ask it, it won't make breakfast, it won't do your homework and it certainly won't stop putting crap tv shows on the tele (Eastenders and Corination Street). It's basically a box with a few flashy lights and a sign which says PS2. The DVD player is a bit of a waste of money in it as well. You might as well buy a normal player. It's plays the DVD a hell of a lot better, you get better sound quality and you get a much better picture.
What is also irritating is that how games that have been out for years and have sold millions of copies don't come out on Platinum, but when Tekken got to over 300,000 (min. for Platinum Status) they automatically decided on Platinum Status.
Scary Games aren't scary why is no one except me ever scared of computer games such as Res Evil when you first play them. It's only a game.
