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.

My hot take: VR is an amazing technology, but it's no good for games - at least not the best majority of games we originally developed for flat screens.

We need to create entirely new styles of entertainment to fully use this medium, instead of modding existing titles or bolting on VR modes.

I'm all for pushing the envelope and creating experiences that are only possible in VR, but I don't see how you could play a good VR FPS and come to the conclusion that VR isn't a good medium for playing this kind of game. I've gone back to flat screen FPS a few times over the last few years and I feel so disconnected from the game, VR has completely transformed gaming for me.
