Do we really need all this?

Ever since the dawn of creation, we’ve always wanted to make things bigger, better, faster and that’s no change in gaming. Back in the 80′s with Space Invaders everyone was raving about how good it, how enthralling it was and how more of it could be made, and if I’m honest there is no change today.

But what I put forward to you is this, will there be a point where we have to stay stop to some of these expansions? Take Oblivion for example, now I’m not going to say its bad game, I’m never going to give it criticism but do we really need it to be so big? Did I really want to spend 100 hours of my life on one game?

The answer if I’m truly honest is no. I like  big games as much as the next guy, but I also love that feeling when you truly know you have completed a game, and can put it away thinking, I have gotten all I want from that game.

So I ask you this, which side are you on, bigger is better or less is more?

Comment and we can discuss
