Or if we have a console, we have 1 or 2, not all.
Everyone has stopped speculating about games until they come out now-a-days. There has been way too many disappointments to just jump on bandwagons and such. Things like Diablo III and StarCraft II still leave a lot to be discussed (characters, if it will be the same as the others, etc.). So, "I'm looking forward to this" or "this sounds awesome" should pretty much be expected by this point. What else do you want to discuss about it?
| Tulkas has some good points here. We don't know much about the games, so it's hard to comment other than "looks good" or "hope it doesn't suck again".
Plus a lot of us are sneaking on sR from work, and we don't have time to go into a debate on the Berserker class vs. the Cleric class in whichever game. Maybe we shouldn't just post short comments, but that's even worse than no comments.
Plus I get reamed by various persons if I comment on a game or piece of tech I don't own and have extensive experience with, so I've stopped much comment/discussion there.
Then, many games don't interest me. It can still look cool or sound cool, which I will say, but I don't want to get all philosophical on its ass.
I guess I should stick to off-topic, mostly.

but I feel like we're never going to evolve as a serious gaming community without serious game discussion. And i don't think talking about TF2 for the next 3 years will get it done.

| I agree. We probably need more hardcore gamers like you, though, to get to that point. I think a lot of our gamers are more casual than you, and that's reflected when you don't get responses to all the game info you post.
but don't get frustrated at lack of comments - you throw out a lot of info at once, and people will seize on only the few they are familiar with (like Wolfy).
