The involvement of young people in videogames has been a constant feature of the industry with Pachter likening it to extreme sports in having "young… and idealistic" people as the type who play games, suggesting that there's no room for the old and cynical.

Golden Axe is a great game I enjoyed it on the SMS, Genesis and in the arcade. Great game but it truly was a quarter eater back in the day. I wish Sega could get the rights to the arcade port of Moonwalker another great arcade game I enjoyed. Collect so many monkeys and become Robo Michael lol.

For dudes like me who only play single-player games, Pachter might be right. Not because of reflexes, but because SP games are becoming less and less the focus of the industry. The only game I play online is Demon's Souls. :)
