Keith Stuart in Gamesblog in Guardian Unlimited says; 'Come Christmas and gamers complain that there is hardly any original titles available, and then like 'obedient' zombies, we buy movie titles and sequels anyway'. How true Keith, you have hit the nail on the head!
He has some interesting suggestions on how we can help the gaming industry in our own little ways. I am citing them below:
1. Say no to film and TV tie-ins
2. Avoid gangster adventures
3. The second world war is over
4. Try an original title
5. Download an independent game
Read his blog to know why we should do the above. Trust me, he has some very interesting reasons for that.
Thanks Keith
