Well, there's Sunset Overdrive, not sure if that counts. But yeah, I get what you mean. More Mario/Kirby style whimsy and cartoon-like games I would really like to see, but the excessive amount of overly serious games is really ticking me off too.

Josh- I can name plenty "big boy", and writing it all off just reeks of laziness and shallowness if you ask me.
Try out "Never Alone" and see what I mean.
There aren't that many "overly serious" games.

Honestly, I really do share Josh's pain. I feel like videogames are all becoming the same. They all need to have personality-less generic human characters either using generic guns or knives and swords slashing about similar scenes colored almost completely in navy-scale/sepia-scale graphics with no real color. Diversity feels like it's dying in general. Whatever happened to the days when there were lots of fun and colorful platformers staring charming characters that didn't need to be the same species fighting all sorts of whimsical badguys that don't include the same giant monsters or evil dude with about as little personality as the main hero? Games in general felt like they had more color, more personality and were overall more fun back then. Now, everything just feels the same.

I fail to see how any of the games I listed are "disturbing crap" in the least, sounds like you're just being WAY too picky.
Splash- yes they do exist obviously and there is plenty of "diversity" in gaming, you're just not looking hard enough. Games most definitely do not feel "the same" today in the least. Platformers aren't as common anymore because of oversaturation during their heyday, so people got tired of them and were looking towards different experiences.
