Consider revising to read:
"...swing the Wii-Mote down at the Wii sensor in a rage of fury and justice."
It reads correctly as is.
And why would you deem a peice of anti-console libel too short? I'd have to devote my time to something that is little more than a witty jest (although with serious implications). Flag this | Edit this post |

| I've refraimed from voting because I deeply disagree with just about every suggestion you presented within the article. Check my article about the porportional relationship between a decline in game complexity and the expansion of the market.
We should not seek to reduce gameing into their most bruteish and simple form to expand the market.
I want to see casual society embrace video games as a respectable medium for entertainment by acknowleding the complexity and quality of gaming. Instead of a person embracing video games with a, "lolowz, if I hit teh tennis ball /w flick of wrist, it bounzes, fun lololol!" attitude, I'd perfer to see someone say something more like:
"Holy god. This RPG/Action game has a plot better than the entire Song of Ice and Fire series."
"Wow. This Racing Game/Flight Sim/ETC is so realistic and contains over 300 cars that dry with perfect real-world physics and graphical representation."
"Sweet! This Shooter/Adventure game puts the story and action of 24 to shame! Who knew video games could outdo prime-time TV in entertainment?"
Simple and casual games, as those found on the DS, have a place, but Nintendo produces them as if they were the point and function of video games. I hope to think that there is a little more to gaming than reducing everything to simple kenetic motions that accomplish thoughtless on-screen tasks. Flag this | Edit this post |
