Top 5 games you got for/around christmas.

Poor top 5.

1. Little big planet
2. Mario Galaxy
3. Bioshock
4. Wii sports
5. Mario and sonic olympics

Poor, poor Top 5.

Mass Effect, Grand Theft Auto 4, Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion, Call of Duty 4, Crackdown

Subject to change though, considering those are the only 5 games I've actually played yet, out of my haul, thus far.

Shocking list, Hippo. The third one will probably be a game of long lasting goodness, but 1, 2, 4, and 5 you'll get bored of in a few weeks, if you're lucky.

Prince of Persia
Rise of the Argonauts (pretty cool, but they could've made it a lot better)
X-Blades

They're the only games I've bought recently, but they're all pretty damn good.

No no no shaun...silly poor mans gamer, shaun....

None.

I refuse to call games with original ideas "poor mans gaming," especially when compared to fucking party games with recycled everything.

I've refused to take anything Shaun has said seriously since:

It makes most of its money from family games and competitions. Sony and Microsoft make their money from selling games and consoles. Wii's steam can only last so long, and it's popularity is biggest in Japan and America. In the UK, the Wii is by FAR the worst seller of the three. The PS3 is still new, too, so give that time.

He is clearly a brilliant troll.

That was a mistake, but I was estimating that on the amount of people I knew with a Wii... which is not many, at least in comparison to the amount of friends I have who own an Xbox or Playstation. The majority of Wii consoles are probably used by children, and families who don't have a lot of gaming experience. Regardless of sales, most of the games coming out on the Wii look like party games, fit for Sky interactive or something. Not all of the fifty Mario games which come out each year are worth £50. Infact, I doubt any of them are.

Super Mario Galaxy is a creative, entertaining, and beautiful game. That is all.

What's your gamertag, Shaun?

Mine is from Fight Night Round 3, it looks awesome! What about you?

Btw, Oblivion is sick - you played the expanded edition?

Guitar Hero World Tour
MarioKart
Wii Music

Eh? No, I mean, you're online gamertag, what is it? Mine's O Gonch0.

And I've not played the expanded bits of Oblivion, but I have downloaded the evil lair and pirate cave add-ons which are awesome.

Bet you £5 it's 'Shaunography'.
