1. It’s interesting but it certainly isn’t beautiful.

2. Nobody knows why NFS Underground 2 was the end of the genre.

3. You can create a good game that won’t sell well.

   But you can never create a bad game that will sell well.

   Linear line between 50: Cent Bulletproof and GTA Vice City would be a cool relationship to characterize.

4. Can’t believe Ninja Gaiden did terrible on sales. That was an epic game. But Halo’s position…that checks out. O.G. Halo player here. That shit was revolutionary.

5. Looks like the blue dots are winning
