Reviews for game consoles suck!!!

I have a really gripe about game reviewers. I see the same thing time and time again and it just makes me feel terrible about my purchase. Let me explain why.

I just recently purchased a Nintendo Wii. I've been searching for some cool games that I could play on it. One of my biggest sources for determining good games are at gaming websites where people post their reviews. These days when I read reviews it just makes me sick to my stomach. It makes me think that I chose the wrong gaming console.

Just about every review claims that the graphics are terrible when compared to the current generation of gaming platforms out there. I don't care about other gaming platforms. If I wanted the best graphics then I would have purchased a Xbox 360 or Playstation 3. The only comparison in graphics should be comparing one wii game to another wii game. That's it. I'm surprised these reviewers don't say "If you could ignore the fact that it's not a $50,000 computer then the graphics are pretty good on the Wii."

I don't know if these people feel horrible about their decision for purchasing a Wii but their is no need to try to bring me down about my purchase. I personally feel great about the purchase of the Wii and believe that all the games that I have purchased look amazing. Maybe I can't zoom in 15x to the dandriff on someones hair. But that's not why I bought this platform.

I just wanna have fun.
