Can one learn to love cinematic video games?

[RobertAugustdeMeijer]

I couldn't stand Prince of Persia. Slow, canned controls, and random (?) sword fighting... for what? I kind of liked the part with the mirror, that bewildered me for a bit.

Another World (Out of this World) I really liked because it respected the player to figure things out for yourself. It took me a long time to beat, but all those years I kept wondering what would be next.

Flashback I didn't like either. Basically Prince of Persia with a gun. Is it worth getting further into?
