In an irresistibly-titled post, Peter Berger writes about why games that aren’t fun right away are going to have a harder and harder time getting interest:
I have finally come to peace with the fact that I no longer have any interest in playing games that require as much effort as my job. So, sorry, no Sims 3 for me. … This feeling of spite has been compounded by the fact that I’ve been playing (and buying) tons of iPhone games recently, and then also bought a Windows game for $30.
