I know what you mean about many of today's games requiring a significant investment of time -- that's why I like the DS, its designed with casual gaming in mind. Want to pause, just shut the case the game goes into sleep mode.

But games where you walked around for 40 hours were available in the 80s too -- Wizardry, Ultima, The Bard's Tale, etc.
