one of the most useless, dumb sequences in video gaming.
i don't know about anyone else, but i can't think of a time when i've
accidentally pressed START, scrolled through the menu options,
highlighted QUIT, pressed QUIT, and then realized my mistake in a
heated panic.
perhaps i should be grateful that all these developers are taking an
interest in making sure gamers don't make this drastic mistake. i mean,
maybe in the event that somehow a user forgot to save, this could be
useful... but it seems that if you make it to this prompt, then you're
likely ready to go to bed.
i just wonder how many people actually sit with this question posed
onscreen with the clock ticking away wondering, with a glazed
expression... "am i sure? am i really, really sure?"
* note to developers: you can skip this sequence in the exit routine...
the marketing "stickiness" ain't working. ;o)
