As I've stated elsewhere, there are pick-up-and-play games (which I'll calle "pickup" for brevity), and time intensive games. It's just the former can be played hardcore. Tetris is pick up and play. You can go for hours if you like. The GTA games on the PS2 were largely this (don't have GTA IV to know if it is). Gears is a pickup game, save for some of the more intense single player areas.
A flashy-first game is awesome when it comes out. A great-first game is awesome forever.
Plus, just for the hell of it: Kelly Brook at the 2008 BAFTAs
