Anyone who has had a lively pub discussion about the television series Lost or visited an internet forum populated by obsessed fans knows the series is very much like an interactive game played concurrently by millions of viewers around the world.
The dedication to detective work and the painstaking analysis of the show's minutiae is astonishing.
Which prompted Jason Hill of Screen Play to wonder after he finished Lost: The Video Game last week why Ubisoft gives players of the game so little credit for having a brain?
Richard writes: "Lost will forever hold a place in TV history. Regarded as one of the greatest shows of all-time, it boasted the most expensive pilot episode ever and had a main cast of 14 characters, which was unheard of at the time it first aired back in 2004 – and a year later on British shores.
It was bold and daring at the time and despite drawing to a conclusion nearly 8 years ago, nothing in my eyes has come close since. Naturally then, there were to be other forms of media for fans to engross themselves further in the mythology, and in 2008, at the height of the TV show's popularity, Lost: Via Domus was released on Xbox 360 on the 28th February in Europe."
I must say the show got you hooked from the 1st season on with amazing story telling and what seemed to be an endless budget for a tv show. Alas, the last couple of seasons were lackluster, at least to me. As if they had not anticipated the ending in sight and was writing it as the show went along.

I did not enjoy this article.
The way I view this Whole "Casual" Hardcore" "In-Between Hardcore" Gaming thing is that (for at least us old school gamers) Casual gamers are what we ALL started out as when we first got our Ataris, Nintendos, Super Nintendos, etc...and in NO way are Casual Gamers "stupid".....If you are a true gamer then you have to agree that it does not matter the number of hours played, or the game genre played, so long as any console can put a controller in one more persons hand and create more video game players....and fans of gaming.....then it is all good...
