Modern good games that actually suck?
noemann:
speculation. All roads always lead to the same cause: intellectual property. Hence, all problems end up at the same perpetrator: U.S.A.
Nintendo has the audacity to assume that it should own the constitution of an Italian guy with a mustache named, of all possibilities, Mario. Not to mention a red-cap and a wrench (now they own the concept of plumbing.) U.S.A. grants copyrights for common knowledge which defies the expression "intellectual" + "property". AC/DC is a great example. Everyone should know the expression "Have a drink on me". AC/DC writes the lyrics and purposely selects common expressions associated with the concept. AC/DC, then, files for copyright protection of the lyrics. Now they asume that they own drinking terminology. Interesting. Um, NOT intellectual. Non-professionals will post here all day unless they understand the difference betwixt owning a copmany versus working for a company. Summarization: law and politics. <- full stop.
oh well, it may never change. On with the show ...
Now can we get back to covers and scans ;D

Out of current Gen I have WiiU.
PS4 and XB1 have no good nor interesting games.
Some driving games maybe, but... Nah not yet.
And on WiiU only game I loved and seriously want sequel is Lego City Undercover.
Hyrule Warriors is OK too, but gets repetive fast.
Super Mario 3D world was not 3D but 2.5D tube runner. Nice game like the other 2 2D Marios on ther console. I want "real" 3D Mario like Super Mario 64!!!
I'm glad I still have my NES and SNES with butload of games and repros are still made.

I'm pretty much this way (except I don't have a Wii U.......yet). The only game that interests me for the PS4 or XB1 is the new Metal Gear Solid game which was also available for the PS3. I'm also a huge Grand Turismo fan, but GT6 was only released for the PS3, so I'm still covered there. I'm sure some day, there will be enough games for me to take a look, but I'm in no rush right now.
But I really want to get a Wii U. I counted at least two dozen games that I would be interested in getting immediately with the system.
RealPlumpBox:
My Xbone I have about 15 games for and to me everyone is good and worth the cost. Some people hold games to a high standard and that is fine with me but a lot of good games are sleeper hits and over looked this way IMO.
palmer6strings:
I'm glad that people feel the way they do about their new systems but I really just wish I could have all my money back.
I've been very disappointed.
