No, I haven't downloaded anything in the past week.(posted 9192 days ago)I often start playing and start getting into a routine for passing many levels. When I'm successful at passing levels I rarely stray from the set rules or patterns for completing a level.
Knowing that I do this, I've often sat in arcades and watched other people play games, good and not so good players.
Some of the help or different ways of getting through levels for me has often come from watching someone who has very little experience with a particular game.
Watching someone who is good only shows me *one* way to get through a game, not how I would be able to get through a game.
My 9 year old daughter has inadvertently given me tips on games as I've watched her struggle through some levels. Now, I don't go around calling her lame because her scores are less then 1% of my scores. She is very proud of her *LAME* scores and I'm proud of her for being proud.
