Blah blah, eac hgame is different, and has differnt paly styles. Personally, I like both, becuase they are different form each other, even if only sometimes in subtle ways.
DannibusX, you brought up an important note. Frankly, I spend more time lately playing indie games than anything else, so really, sales figures mean little to me other than to say that marketing was effective. Let's see how things do after 2 years, and which title continues to sell, and then we can declare a winner in retail. I am interested in product longevity, not sales in the first couple of weeks.
