The game you have been waiting for months, you pop into your machine and hey presto you've completed it within an hour.
What a let down, what a waste of money even if it was a gift.
There should be some law about games that are to easy to complete because there are too many on the market and I'm not talking about games meant fot five year olds.
I like a challenge, not too hard a challenge but a game that will keep you coming back for more and more just to move onto the next stage.
Do you find this problem with games or is it just me?
I mean some games you get unlimited continues wheres the skill in that?
Can you name some games which you think are too easy?
Thanks for reading cheers Crusher.

I like football games which also have alot of replay value because every game is different especially if you are playing against mates.
The only thing I don't like about footy games are the same sequals coming out year after year.

I must admit if thats all the kinda games you play, then you will get value for money, there must be other games you play though?

I'm not too big a fan of WWF, but they are a good example of replay value - you have to keep playing to unlock more and more characters. It's a good way of enticing you to play and I'm sure that our parents really appreciate it!

I don't mind completing a game fast as long as it has replay value, if you complete it in an hour and never play it again what a waste of money.

Yeah, I know. What's your rank in the multiplayer?
