Yeah, I think movies should be graded solely on how fun they are, too. Here, I'll start... hmm... That Eraserhead flick? Totally not fun; 1/10. Transformers? Fun as hell; 10/10. I mean, who cares about things like story and immersion anyway when all we want is a bunch of mindless explosions and car chase scenes?

Heck, let's do the same thing for books. Harry Potter is more fun to read than Ulysses; therefore, I'm rating it higher, and that's that.

Movies and Games are completly different. Fun = immersion. If your having fun your into the game that much more.

Your prove no point in your post.=

 

 

 

My point is that games, like movies and books, are capable of much more than simple fun.



"'Casual games' are something the 'Game Industry' invented to explain away the Wii success instead of actually listening or looking at what Nintendo did. There is no 'casual strategy' from Nintendo. 'Accessible strategy', yes, but ‘casual gamers’ is just the 'Game Industry''s polite way of saying what they feel: 'retarded gamers'."
