Message: [QUOTE="Waffles, post: 370542, member: 703"] I feel that availability has become a core issue for me. When I was a kid, getting new games to play was a BIG DEAL because it required for either the planets to align so my dad would actually buy them or for my sister and I to both bring home enough good grades to justify rentals, so we played everything we managed to get our hands on as much as possible, even if the games kinda sucked or we didn't understand them (and this was a very real thing at a time when most Genesis releases were exclusively in English). Nowadays, though, I feel like the gaming environment itself has rewired my brain to adopt a "reviewer" mindset: play something for an hour or two, see if it wows me --and most games aren't front loaded like that, so the vast majority don't--, move on to the next thing. Rinse & repeat. I don't like this, but games have never been this easy to get and flashy recommendations just keep on coming, so committing seems almost impossible unless I come across something I REALLY want to play through. What about you? Do you play things to the end or organize your collection on bite-sized chunks you may or may not go back to? [/QUOTE]
