I never understood why they just don't make it optional. Am I really too dumb to figure out which button to press to make Mario jump. :childplease:

well when modern games don't have this, everyone complains about the 'learning curve'

do you remember when you actually had to read the instructions?

yeah, it's basically all the legal mumbo-jumbo, and maybe a pic of the controller layout

I really don't mind the tutorials, as long as they're quick, and don't dwell on obvious shyt. they should also be optional. I was on the second playthrough of some game recently, and was pretty bummed I had to do all the tutorial shyt again

Yep and if you're a very, very casual player it's terrible.

I played assassins creed once after I bought it, picked it up again about 3 weeks later, forgot what all the buttons were DVD turned it off :snoop:

I just stick to gta, call of duty or sports games.

Agreed completely. I'd prefer the games to actually have instruction manuals like they used to. One of the reasons I hate/don't start playing new games is because usually when I want to play videogames, I only want to put in 20-30 minutes, in that time in most new games I'm just being told what buttons to press.

Sound sound sound
theres so much extra shyt now...like when they tell you to slide the cursor over until you can barely see the logo or some shyt...popping in a game for the first time takes like an hour before ur free to run around

this generation sucks.

You could rent a game and have to wait 2hrs for patches to DL
