  • One of the games I really enjoyed from the PS2 was the Shadow of the Colossus. It is an action RPG with almost zero storyline. Other notable mentions are GTA SA, Gran Turismo 3 and Tony Hawk 3.

    I had the GameCube and played RE4 and it was amazing, I think they released it on on the PS2 as well.

    For the WII, I loved Pikmin and Super Mario Galaxy. I used to play in a WII bowling league and it was a lot of fun.

    I was not into the XBox 360 but I was playing on the PC at the time so some shared titles like BioShock, Red Dead Redemption, Mass Effect, and Portal 2, Batman Arkham, Left 4 Dead, and Far Cry all were really good.

    I think a sone of these would probably qualify as massive story games so they may not be your cup of tea.



  • I had this friend who had sailed the Pacific Ocean by himself and climbed several mountains. A very outdoors kind of guy and he decided he would try computer gaming. He put together a badass PC and got a bunch of realistic flight gear like throttles, rudders, badass flight stick, extra touch screens, etc.

    He spent all this time and effort and just could not get into the simulator he built. Computer gaming just wasn’t for him.


  • Games are way more fun with other people.

    When I play games by myself it is to relax and unwind. I like everything from real life solitaire to strategy, RPG, and action games. I prefer to play with others, given the chance though.

    Perhaps you have never found a single player game that you like or you just prefer the company of others? It is hard to tell without more information.









  • Trying to justify perception and stating it exists are two different things. I can speak to both. It definitely exists and the reason it exists is due to verifiable information.

    Your statistical analysis cannot disprove perception because people are more likely to accept anecdotal evidence. That is just human nature.

    You can definitely fight back with anecdotal information yourself (ie: My relatives traveled to the US and has a splendid time with no problems) but trying to sway people with statistics is a non-starter for a lot of people.
