Mitch Lasky Quotes

My kids download 10 games. They play them all for two minutes. They throw away the eight they don't like. Then they play those last two obsessively for a month. That's alien to those of us who buy a $60 game and play it for 40 or 50 hours. The discovery mechanism is completely social, and I don't think you get that genie back in the bottle.

• There's a fine line between playing through things and sitting out. I was always on the side of, 'I'm going to play through it.'
