I was better at the side scroller/arcade style games, which aren't mainstream anymore. But I have a pretty short attention span when playing video games these days. I love the graphics and everything, but I can't figure out how to do anything. I get lost and don't know where to go. This is why I could never play more than five minutes of COD. How important is it to understand the storyline or watch the introductions?
Thinking of getting a PS4 or X Box one just to enamor the graphics. But no good if I don't know what to do. Any way to get better at these games or improve your ability to figure out where to go when you're lost in games? Honestly, I feel that the level of critical thinking you have to do for the games is just as complex as playing in a reality tv show like Lost or Survivor.
