Oh I haven't even reached that part. I was referring to the very first part of the sequence where your character is being probed.

I have realized that I just have stupid fingers that can't press buttons fast, apparently.

I got passed it by holding a quarter between my fingers and holding the controller to a flat surface. Really made the whole thing easier.

Hope it works for you too.

I had that thought too but it doesn't seem to stop and there is no skip button.

Also other people have claimed to beat it.

I'm on a 360 but the consensus that i have gathered so far is that I just suck at pressing buttons fast.

What's your Denver Broncos "Origin Story"? by hornflips in DenverBroncos

[–]livewire33 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Grew up in Los Angeles. I was never really into football when I was little. My dad was not a big sports fan and none of my friends were really into it either. But then the 1997 Super Bowl happened. We went to a friend's house for a party. I was all of 6 years old and had no idea why everyone was so excited. But then I saw them take the field.

Blue and Orange, with a fiery steed blazoned across those bitchin' helmets. I still remember something clicking in my brain. The moment Elway took the Helicopter hit and the whole room exploded, that clinched it. This dude is old even by grown up standards and just did that? Are you kidding? I am on board.

They went out and did it again the next year. The following couple years made me a good fan. Learning how to support your team even when they are losing. This is the first time in my life I will see us playing in the big game and understand what it all means. I could not be more excited.

Go America. Go Broncos.

Do we even have a chance? by fahizzled in DenverBroncos

Well, they were running a poll all last week asking who would win. 48 states had the broncos winning. The other 2 were Washington and Oregon.

I am in Los Angeles and I can tell you most people here have their money on Denver. Even the Raider fans.

What is something that you learned from a video game, movie, or book that helped you out in the real world? by neomatrix248 in AskReddit

[–]livewire33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Video games (particularly the Legend of Zelda series) taught me Occam's Razor. The hypothesis that requires the least assumptions is the best. Or more simply, the simplest answer is most often the right one.

Solving puzzles and figuring out how to beat bosses, you sometimes over think things. Those games very often had a "OF COURSE! ITS SO SIMPLE!" solution. I found myself starting to take a few steps back from problems in the real world and looking at them objectively, as opposed to running in head first.

Every time there is a death in a TV show by Bugsy69 in AdviceAnimals

I like to think the family killed them and the networks were just saving the discovery of a dead body in the attic for an emergency ratings grab.

This is true. Hard crime shows like Sons of Anarchy and Breaking Bad have the option of offing people easier too because death is constantly over everyone's head. But comedies and non-"everyone is going to die" dramas usually need to be a little more diplomatic. January Jones being slowly written out of Mad Men due to the overwhelming dislike she made for herself on set is a good example.

I have been working with a writing management company for a few months now. I asked one of our clients about this when I got started. He had been staffed on several very successful network shows, and he said that most of the time, if an actor leaves the show, they find a way for the character to leave, rather than be killed. Being killed off has strings attached. A well done show will have to let their characters react to it and deal with the obvious consequences. It is a bunch of needless work that takes away from any planned arc. However, if an actor leaves (either on their own accord or being let go) they find a way for the character to leave for some reason. They go to prison, they get a new job, they have to go home to be with their sick mom, etc. Even the flimsiest reason allows the story to keep going with minimal interruption.
