It’s sort of like a randomly-generated version of the Impossible Game. A punisher where you must outrun a pace bar while leaping over pits and spikes. I’ve got a […]

I don’t even consider these types of things games. They are just memorization trainers gone wrong, LoL. Dragon’s Lair had a similar thing going for it, which is why I quit wasting 50 cents at a time on it in the arcade. I lost all patience and interest in that type of game when I watched a goofy friend of mine play the last stage of some ignorant game on the PlayStation 1 while turned towards me and making weird undance-like moves with every button press. I was like REALLY? Why? No skill needed, just repetition? You don’t even have to look at what’s happening to your character? Totally boring. How many times have you played this?
“This level? Probably a couple hundred times.”
How many times before you beat it?
“Maybe 30-40.”
I’m going home. Screw you and this waste of a CD, Dennis.

That said, some people like counting cars, so whatever wastes your time in an acceptable way, I guess. For my own part, give me something that has a better Boss than my own forgetfulness.

Otherwise, trial-and-error only works as long as there’s a chance, even a remote one, of […]
