Less racing games because they don't hurt your thumbs? More Extreme Sport multiple button pushing Tony Hawk's Style games? WHY!!!

MY THUMB HAS BLISTERS!!!

That makes it all the more worthwhile then er-no, congratulations on your score.

This topic, as simple, loud and pointless as it may appear was actually intended to hopefully progress into a discussion about the style of games we play today - for instance, requiring us to press multiple buttons and swivel thumbs inanely over the 4 way D-pad like a an excited monkey in a sweet store...

Will we ever see one button wonders again? I mean, will there ever be games in which you only have to press one button at a time - games like Sega Rally! Now that was a superb game, shame that the improvements made it much worse in the sequel, funny that!

Crazy Taxi's Crazy Box mode was responsible for several tubes of ointment for my thumb hinges - these games are just so addictive!! Who cares if you can jump 100 metres further than anyone else in the country, or score a 400,000 point combo WITHOUT using any cheats?

We do!

We're always trying to complete things, trying to improve and get the most out of the games we buy, especially when they're so bloody brilliant!! I'm not saying I want more flawed games, more uninspired unoriginal & completely lame console games, but it would be a lot better for our digits...

Discuss?

In the summer I played International Track and Field so much, I managed to crave a scar into my right hand doing the hammer throw, great thing is, it was furthur then my javelin throw. And better than the times in NOM by girly gamers.

muahahah
