That was cool, and oh-so-true!!

One thing they forgot though, is the damn UNSKIPPABLE CUTSCENE. I want to be able to play the game and not have to watch the same damn scenes every time I die. It's also a horrible thing for us speed runners.

A good example is God of War. The only time you can skip a cut-scene is after you've already died. So, if you don't die, you can't skip. AAARRRGGGHHH!!! If I'm playing the game for the fourth time, I probably ain't playing it to see the CG. Most games these days have the option to view them on their own, anyways. I've noticed that in these cases of unskippables, the games usually will show you actual play time, which kind of makes it easier to deal with.

Is that true about the next gen A.I. not being any better than the current generation because the main power focus for the new consoles is going towards graphics?
