A hypothetical situation containing a hypothetical game.

    To satisfy my own curiousity I pose this question.

    You're about to play this new game you bought. Having sat through the install and configured the grapic settings to your liking, you click 'New Game'. Upon starting the game, you're confonted with the first person view of someone pointing a pistol at your head; right between the eyes. You're sitting down. Thanks to depth of field blurring, you can't really tell who's holding the gun.

    Now, what do you as the player, within the realms of this hypothetical situation, want to know?

    everyone knows that someone will bust open the door and interrupt the guy, they might run off and the game fades to black and fades back a few seconds later with one of your allies untieing you.

    Sounds like a decent enough start to a game. I'm guessing much of the game would then be a flashback or something?

    Twas the thought Reno. There seems to be a relatively common thought in game design that you have 15 seconds (or something to that effect) to get the player's attention; this struck me as a good way to go about it.

    I'd sit, wait and do nothing at all because i would be quite surprised. Wait for someone to bust open the door i guess

    Where are my glasses?

    After that I'd use mindcontrol to make him shoot himself.
