Oops, sounds like I may have struck a nerve. That was definitely not one of Bingo's more amusing comebacks, in fact, it was pretty weak and cliched.
Anyway, I think it is safe to say Animal Crossing is considerably more childish than Star Wars. But just like Star Wars, I guess big boys can love themselves some Animal Crossing too.
Everyone's a critic...of course Star Wars isn't kids stuff but that's the charge leveled at it by many killjoys who don't understand it... Killjoys like George Lucas for example.
The same is true of video games in general, even now there are still calls for curbs on violence and sexual themes in video games because a large number of legislators still perceive the entire medium as being aimed at children.
As for Animal Crossing you might think a life sim based in a forest of anthropomorphic animals as just kids stuff.
Any game that has a cat that has washed it's own face off nonchalantly asking you to design a replacement has in my view entered the realm of the surreal.
David Lynch has nothing on that spooky shtick. The existential snowmen are a hoot too.
Still I guess Alice In Wonderland, The Wind In The Willows, The Narnia Chronicles, Animal Farm, Inland Empire, The Bible, Harvey, The Mahabharata, The Koran etc (all of which feature anthropomorphic animals) are beneath your attention?
How would you define mature gaming C3PX?
