2. Maybe I went too far by saying Nintendo make almost nothing (emphasis on almost) but casual games, but you're going just as far by saying Xbox 360 only has realistic shooters, and nobody can afford a PS3. I know several people with PS3s, and as for 360's games: Mass Effect, Oblivion, 4 new Square Enix RPGs, Half-Life 2, Portal, Team Fortress 2, Braid, more racing and sport games than you can shake a stick at...all realistic war games, aren't they?

Microsoft and Sony are trying to pick up the people who actually enjoy video games, instead of waving a stick to play Tennis..
As a longtime Zelda and Starfox fan I callbullshit.

*Rereads post* The word "realistic" appears in my post... zero times. Well, there goes your entire argument.

If it is about a war, it will most likely be realistic. See where I'm going with this?

Lets say I made a game featuring a war between corn-people and pea-people in a world where gravity always pointed in the direction of your feet and where the means of killing the opposing side's vegetables was by hurling terrible puns at them. Now, it could potentially happen in some other universe, but it's hardly what most people would consider realistic. Well, apart from the killing-people-with-puns part.
