10. Why the hell is there not a straight up Mad Max licensed cover based shooter/vehicular combat game? Is Fallout now "our" official Mad Max? Watched The Road Warrior the other day and god damn. There's material to spare, shall we say. Age of Max. Yeah.

9. Why the hell are there still Wii games that don't use pointer support throughout all menus? Seeing stick-controlled keyboards now is like being spat in the face.

8. Why the hell isn't Games for Windows Live integrated 100% with Live Messenger? Why does it have to live in its own separate application? GFWL has no chance of survival as long as its being perceived as addon bloatware; if it was an integral part of Windows that might make it less of a god damn pain to deal with. The service itself works. It just got beat viciously with the frontend ugly stick.

7. Why the hell do i pay full price for XBL Gold in Europe when i get only a slice of the feature set?

6. Why the hell hasnt Persona 4 been ported to the Wii? Actually, why aren't more JRPGs being ported/made for the Wii? Anything menu-driven was born to roll on that box, and it's not like it's a small market share. Digging out my PS2 to play Persona felt so unnecessary.

5. Why the hell isn't there 360 backwards compatibility for Oddworld Stranger's wrath? If there is ONE system on my shelf i feel i shouldn't have to hook up again it's my xbox classic. When Call of Cthulhu is backwards compatible, what's the deal? Is it a Riddick kind of problem where they hacked the hell out of the system to the extent where it isn't really standards compliant?

4. Why the hell have nobody managed to make a good straight up hardcore action game set in the Warhammer 40k universe? Playing Gears of war 2 keeps making me think about Terminator space marines

3. Why the hell are game-specced laptops still popular? Why did i keep buying them? Jesus.

2. Why the hell aren't Lucasarts pushing out old adventure games like crazy for the Wii? Or Steam? It's good to see Revolution try the water, but for Lucasarts this is a straight up dosbox nobrainer. I will happily buy a Monkey island 1-3 pack for 30 bucks to this day if performance and compatibility is guaranteed. Why are they not doing asset updates / rereleases of games like Grim Fandango? Mature, well written, deep stories are rarer now than ever, and they're sitting on a hoard of them.

1. Why the hell isn't Chu Chu Rocket on XBLA, Wiiware and PSN yet? Best competitive game ever. Also the most violent, if you're in the same room as whoever you just sent the cats on.
