Well, the last blurb about originality was semi-encouraging. I'm pretty sure I once went on a massive rant about how there 3238938 WW2 shooter games and all of them are exactly the same because nobody wants to make a move and come out with something new, which is why a lot of games at E3 (that were any good) are just sequels of other games. A lot of people are getting agitated, and if a developer would finally grow some...erm...marbles, they have the potential to make a huge power-play.

As for the rest of the article, I say its about time they finally gave up this crap with making a video game for every freakin' movie that comes out now. I'm not really sure what they were talking about when they say that the license from a movie gets a game sold. Maybe this is just me, but if I see a video game made for a movie, I automatically don't go anywhere near it. Maybe some other people get duped into buying it, but I'm sure any of them with half a brain take it back the next day.
