Consumer Reports Gets Its Game On

Posted by kdawson on from the mainstreaming-of-a-subculture dept.

Itninja writes "A few days ago Consumer Reports posted their first report on a specific video game: Wii Fit. From the article: 'Our testers ranged in age from 24 to 69 and included 10 women and five men. Users ran the gamut from regular exercisers to mostly sedentary folks.' Will this be a harbinger of things to come? Will CR be reviewing the next installment of Gran Turismo?"

    Hell, that's 15 more people than usually test a finished project for most gaming sites.
