Writing To My Pleasure

"The first thing you learn playing video games is how hard they are; the second thing is how many hours they take to play."  Painkiller Deathstreak, Nicholson Baker, pg 1.

I appreciate the quote because it has a "first thought" sort of style, it seems to me as if this is the first thought that came to mind when he started playing video games.  Some things in this writing that impact the reader is the open mindset to video games.  He also seems to give a full review/walk around of the game in the first paragraph of each section to help the reader understand what he was going through as he played the game.  I like to use a similar follow a format style of writing where you organize what you talk about in a format at the beginning of each new section.
