At last, someone who speaks up!

Trawling through the vast wasteland that is the Internet, it's refreshing to see someone truly vent out their frustration in quite a positive, yet somehow quite possibly offensively verbal way (which is why I'm guessing, they were frustrated in the first place).

The Gamers' Manifesto by David Wong and Haimoimoi brings out what most computer gamers for the past 25 years has been wishing that developers/creative teams/ideas people actually use in making games, as opposed to giving us crap games that are shinier and faster.

When we're on our deathbeds, we're going to wish we could reclaim the time we spent wandering around for save points long after we were done playing every night. Imagine if your word processing program did this, refusing to let you save your progress until you typed six more paragraphs. Or, made you retype your last paragraph six times while zombies tried to shoot your cursor...

Go have a read if you've got time, it's fairly long but worth the read if you've got a gaming history ;)
