Not boring, of course. No good game is boring. But it doesn't have to be fun. The Godfather wasn't fun. Lord of the Rings wasn't fun. The Dark Knight wasn't fun.

Shadow of the Colossus wasn't fun, MGS4 wasn't fun, Killzone 2 wasn't fun, Heavy Rain won't be fun.

They're all still awesome, though.

I would sooner whack myself on the head with a hammer than be forced to play Frisbee Catch for any extended length of time. Of course fun games can be good- Mario Kart, LittleBigPlanet, Ratchet and Clank, light hearted games like that. But not all games that Mr. Malstrom considers "fun" are good. If the mainstream thinks they are, good for them.

I must use fun differently than most people here.  I never saw the Godfather, but the Lord of the Rings and the Dark Knight were both fun, enjoyable movies to me.


I know seriously, he must have a very skewed understanding of what fun is
