I'd like to throw Valkyria Chronicles and sequel into the mix. The only tactics games I ever played, but I have a real fondness for them.

I love games, but I'm not in it for the challenge. I'm a content tourist. Which is just as good, because I'm simply terrible at hitting the right buttons in a timely manner. Anyway, hearing about the crazy stuff that happens in DmC makes me really want to play it, but I'm scared off by the nineteen different levels of hard difficulty and only one level of easy.

I like these kinds of games -- for instance, I love Bayonetta, but I don't think my experience with that game would have been nearly as good if not for the Very Easy Automatic Mode that let me dish out awesome combos by simply button mashing. Last year I picked up Mortal Kombat after hearing how the story stuff was well done. I chose the easy setting, but after trying and failing for an hour to get through even the tutorial I had to give up and just watch the thing on YouTube.

I did play the DmC demo. Handling a single type of guys wasn't too much of a problem, but when they started throwing in different colored monsters that you had to use a specific weapon for and when you had to use different buttons depending on what kind of grappling point you were trying to latch on to, then my brain started to melt a little. The demo only lets you play on normal, though, so I still have a little bit of hope.

How easy is the easy difficulty setting? Do you think it's even worth it for me to pick this up?

Final Fantasy XIII-2 is currently second on my list, but I have seen no mention of it anywhere else. This is what Final Fantasy XIII should have been, so I guess that's why it didn't get much attention, but solving quests by using the time travel mechanic to jump back and forth between eras was a lot of fun, there were some cool alternate endings, and the characters were all better than in the previous game. They even manage to "fix" the obnoxious Hope Estheim!

For the picture, also check that the zoom setting on your TV is set to 1:1. The setting is usually called "Pixel mapping", "Dot by dot", "Just scan" or similar.

I would probably agree that Journey looks better, but I just got a new TV myself and the first game I booted up was Flower. Another rare 1080p entry (which Journey, sadly, is not) that fills the entire screen with individually moving blades of grass and just looks amazing.
