In my opinion, the Wii is the leader of the console war thus far. The Xbox360 and PS3 are basically just upgraded versions of their predecessors, meaning they haven't technically expanded their target audience at all since the last generation. But the Wii is completely unique, and because of that it appeals not only to hardcore gamers with titles like Metroid 3 and Twilight Princess, but also targets an entirely new demographic that the other systems have neglected, people who don't generally play video games. My brother hated videogames (yeah, he's weird) but loves the Wii. Plus, the Wii has sold more than the other consoles almost every week since its launch.
Don't get me wrong, I adore the PS3. It's so powerful and impressive. But the Wii will probably be the overall winner of this generation's console war, for the reasons I have stated above.
Marluxia thought he spotted someone in the distance, but couldn't be sure who it was - his figure was severely distorted by the haze that filled the air, and all he could make out was the form of an Organization coat, vague and wraithlike. As he got closer, he at last realised who it was. "Demyx!" he gasped breathlessly, as he saw his Organization teammate nursing a broken sitar.
But anyways. I really think it's sad that SE have decided to exploit a Final Fantasy game for profit. What about when making an amazing game mattered more than money to them? And profit must be what's motivating them, because there's no other reason to make a game mulitplatform. *Sigh*. I'm actually really angry with SE right now.
I heard about that. It really sucks. Now there is pretty much zero point in me getting a PS3. And I'm shocked that SE would even consider making a major FF game multiplatform. I mean, what are they? EA??? And seeing as they did decide to make it multiplatform, they should have put it on the Wii, seeing as it's sold more than the Xbox and PS3 virtually every week since it was released.
I didn't think the FF franchise would begin to die out so quickly. At least we still have KH, right?
Marluxia staggered to his feet, and gazed in disbelief at the heaps of charred rubble and broken gummi blocks scattered around what he now realised was a desert island. How did I get here?, he wondered. But he couldn't remember a thing about how he got here, or why. The blinding sunlight and glistening white sand did little to alleviate his throbbing headache.
I agree. The spoken language is relatively easy, mainly because the grammar is so minimalist, compared to French or German. But the script... I really think that's difficult.
As for German, it's not supposed to be terribly difficult. (According to my friends anyways). Yes, the grammar is complex, but it's very regular and structured.
As a native speaker, it's easy to think that. But not everyone speaks English, and it is well documented that it is a difficult language to learn for speakers of other languages. It is an extremely irregular language, especially in terms of pronunciation. For every 7 English words, 3 are not pronounced as they are spelled.
Contrast that with a language like Italian, Spanish or German, where nearly every word is pronounced as spelled.
The only thing about French, Italian and Spanish that's tough are the verbs (IMO)... A lot of my friends just don't get them. Once you can figure them out, the rest is pretty easy.
