Are they trying to fake the people into thinking that the game has a moral depth, or that the hero is more than just a guy who runs around shooting people in the…behind? Maybe they presuppose that the viewer KNOWS what the game is all about, so they’re giving it a different spin just for fun. For a non-insider, though, it doesn’t work…I never really wanted the games before, and I still don’t after watching the trailers. But, then, I’m the guy who wandered around the building humming “I’m a Lumberjack” all day.

I’m not sure you’re giving me enough credit for versatility in appreciation. Who would think I would like BioShock as much as I did? It’s the scenery, the mood, and the story that makes a game for me. And as long as I don’t have to hit the “jump” button too often, I don’t mind playing them myself sometimes. Oh, and as long as there’s not some damn bird making ridiculous noises with each step, they can be cool to watch too… damn old school Kazooie…
