Nintendo Wii - The Dumbing Down of America?
« on: June 21, 2007, 10:40:42 AM »
I was playing DiRT today. Its a challenging game. Lots of truck/car tweaking and ins-and-outs to driving each track. It requires practice even because damn can it get challenging even on rookie. But then you have Excite Truck for the Wii. People who play that have no interest in DRIVING TRUCKS, they just wanna act stupid and go in a circle a few times.

Then you have games like CRUSH and PQ2 for PSP which promote actuall thinking, while Brain Training games are perfect for old people losing their minds. I mean, its great the Wii is so popular, but it honestly just serves as an indicator of how many stupid people there are.

PQ2 looks so awesome. It looks like brain training done for actual GAMERS.
