ha, yeah--I think that's it! I get frustrated if I die just a couple of times...and with thousands of other games to offer a few minutes of fun, I find I stray easily and do not 'stick with it'! But that's the 'cheap' way out and will probably even bring my attention span even lower. Ok...I'm just gonna keep cracking on this Battletoads game until I get that good old fashioned feeling of accomplishment!
