Blog Info

Welcome to the rageblog. This is my heavily opinionated video game blog. It's pretty simple how this works. I play video games, a lot of video games. I like to think I know my stuff. So, when a game pisses me off, I get vocal about it. And this is my way of doing so. So, if you disagree with my opinions, let me know. It won't change anything, but I like conversation ;)

Sports video games.

Has anyone else ever noticed that sports games, like football, basketball, baseball, soccer, etc., are released every year? Each year, the "revamped" game comes out claiming to be better than the last one. These games start off for sale from $40.00-$60.00, and people are clamouring to waste their money on them. For anyone reading this, don't get me wrong, I have nothing against people who do this. I just think you're morons. Here's another question: Has anyone ever noticed that bargain bins at games stores usually consist 70% or more of sports games from '02 and up? Ever notice you can pick up most of them, including the 2010 versions of most sport games, for about $10.00? A year after launch! And even worse, I've seen older games for as low as $0.99. Call of Duty pumps out games every year, and even they still fetch a pretty penny, even that World of War piece of crap.

So my advice to all those stupid jocks who are too lazy to actually be jocks and just do it from your couch: Wait a damn year. I mean, I know the games suck, but if you're gonna buy the latest crappy game anyway, you might as well wait until the price goes down. Would you rather toss up $60.00 for a game you'll be bored with within a year, or $10.00? Think about that one.
