And what is gaming if not the indulgence of a fantasy?
And is this a fantasy you would want to indulge? A mere power fantasy of some pitiful juvenile? If you ever want gaming to become respectable as a medium I suggest you ignore those mindless shooters. (and writing this really bugs me, as I usually take the opposing side during these kinds of arguments)
Oh puh-lease... Do I play Call of Duty? No, it's not my kind of game. But obviously other people do. Kobe does, are you gonna tell Kobe he can't play Call of Duty? Yeah, you probably would. But then Kobe would shove you away and continue on towards his life of being Kobe and you're still here bitching and whining about a commercial.
You know what I think. I think there's room for all levels of entertainment in gaming. Just like in movies you have films like Die Hard, Animal House and Predator, but they aren't any less relevant than The Godfather, Citizen Kane or Mr. Smith Goes to Washington. It's just a matter of reaching the right audience. Clearly you don't like CoD, there's nothing wrong with that. But you also seem to think no one else should. Well the sad part is, no one cares what you think. You're entitled to your opinion, just don't expect people to glom onto it when you increase the volume of your voice.
Also Kobe is awesome! I did mention that, right?
Edit: How can you not think "John Woo Pizza Man" is awesome?
