You're right in many ways. I personally believe there are pleanty of good options still out there, but all this "people trying to make the next GTA" sh*t needs to stop. We all know it won't though. Frankly, it'll just get worse. We all know it, but that dosen't mean the good games left will go away. as long as there is an audience for them and they sell, they will stay around.
And hey, Revolution's going to give us access to the NES, SNES, Genesis, and N64 libraries, so who knows. Maybe some kids will play them and say "Hey, I want more games like this" and the industry will listen. You never know.
I'd do my own rant, but I think I've beaten that dead horse around here far too much. Don't let that stop the rest of you though
Rant away.
