Any weird/controversial opinions? I'll start. Before the remake, the best version of Resident Evil 4 was the Wii version. The Wiimote controls old Resi's tank controls better than any other controller at the time. The PC version had a bunch of little bugs and detractors that the Wii version just doesn't have.

I'll extend this by saying that the Wiimote is actually pretty damn good for shooters, and particularly good for accessibility. Not having to cramp up my hands to press buttons is awesome for having arthritis. Aiming with the Wiimote and moving with the nunchuck just feel really natural, you barely have to move your fingers for anything.

I still don't know how to go about finding these. I've had so many bad experiences I hardly know what I like anymore. All I "know" is I'm not big on FPS games. But at the same time I loves The Last of Us.

It's hard to find something unique but I've found some of my favorite games by taking a gamble and playing a game I don't know much about. If the box art looks cool or I like the trailer I give it a try. Game critics don't help much as they only like specific kinds of games so I can't rely on them too much.

Yeah it's hard. I might go retro :)
