Nolan North, the voice of this console generation.
Uncharted 2 took the Game of the Year award at this year’s Spike Video Game Awards. This is a good thing because I feel like I need more validity when it comes to how awesome Uncharted 2 is. I can only say so many things about the game when people start to tune me out. But what I am tired of saying is that it is a PlayStation 3 exclusive.
Exclusivity is a hurdle that I wish we didn’t have to do jump. I never have thought that in the future after Nintendo, that we would have four huge consoles fighting over marketshare, as well as mobile/portable alternatives. With the popularity and saturation of the consoles, games are flooding shelves and the competition is almost impossible unless your marketing budget is as high as some movies.
To hear that some people haven’t had the pleasure of playing Braid, Miner Dig Deep, or Fat Princess is disheartening, but it is an effect of the marketplace.
I have it all, I wish my PC went a little faster, I wish I had some extra cash to spend on games, but I am glad that I don’t have decisions. Uncharted vs. Gears of War. Metal Gear Solid vs. Halo. Pixel Junk: Eden vs. Shadow Complex.
I wish Nolan North would even out the playing field with an “one console that plays everything” and call it NN64.
