NFS series has been given a whole 20-25 minute special in a previous Podcast ... number 4 or 5 I think ... where there were only 3 members of Podcast team!

my question: do you think MW2 is so insanely popular only because of it's level of difficulty (or lack thereof).

because it's a pretty easy..takes 2 seconds to kill someone, depends on who has the better gun, and who see's the enemy first. these factors apply generally and i think that's what pulls people in. The fact that any noob can play it and unlock weapons and perks for a feeling of achievement (?).

^NOT calling anyone a noob hahah but i'm just saying. me and my bro had a huge argument over this and i want to hear your opinion.

My first question was regarding the xbox 2010 outlook that i posted earlier.
I have some other questions as well and would like it if you could shed some light on them:

Why is Chandoo made fun of all the time?
Dirt 2 in my opinion was an amazing game, why hasnt it been given the respect that it should deserve?

My questions:

1. Guys don't you guys think that today's games are just focusing on the Graphics rather than story line and gameplay. For example I loved "Commandos behind Enemy line" series, Resident Evil 3, Far Cry 1. But now if u look their sequels they didn't meet my expectations at all, like Far Cry2, Resident Evil 4 and 5 are a fail for me.

2. Played Modern Warfare 2 U guys have just created a hype of this game coz i didn't find it too exciting.

1) What are your plans for the PG Store? Uptil now it hasnt been selling any major products. Will it ever sell some products that people really want like modding stuff, GPUs etc? Since the founder (INFERNO) is in the UK and many mods are here like Jshak wouldnt it be possible to sell products here at the PG Store?

2) Why is there so much emphasis on graphics? Games have just become more and more graphics intensive, the graphics are great but gameplay is average in most games. Whats your take on this?

3) With hadware giants putting emphasis on more and more power and games being more and more resource hungry, gamers are on an endless path to being future-proof. Would you agree that the gaming industry has become more about making money since companies like Intel and Nvidia keep on using their monopolistic powers and introduce new products ever few months. Is it really that necessary to release new products so quickly, or are just being manipulated into buying more and more hardware that gets 2 generations old a minute after you buy it?
