And who decides the requirements for a gamer, you? There are some general rules, like not having to look at the controller to press buttons, but sometimes you can't go back once you get to the other side of the fence, where developers have six or so years more development time. Me not having the patience to deal with the camera or controls doesn't negate all the hours I've played, and dollars I've spent on games, certain game magazines(like a subscription to Game Informer) and controllers, memory cards and consoles. If I don't meet your high bar, then so be it. Oh and I'm not trying to atack you. Just need to make that clear, since people get angry alot faster on these threads than in real life. You probably would never cuss at someone you don't even know in real life, unless your name is the sound effect of Spidey's web shooters, then you probably average like twenty people a day.
