I think it kind of speaks to the type of gamer one is.

Oddly, I've never felt that sensation that you mention. To me, and this is odd, the controller and its direct input is only one part of the equation for me. To me, the magic has always come from exploration and discovery. What lies around the next corner.

I guess that explains my love of platformers (even if they stick with the same thematic elements they tend to offer up unique challenges) and the Uncharted series. You always get a sense of something special when you discover the next new location.

I mean one of my fondest memories from last gen was the first time I entered Phendrona (Spelling?) Drifts in the original Metroid Prime. And part of the reason I loved Kirby's Epic Yarn was just seeing how the world unfolded (pun intended) in your face.
