My friend came over the other day to have a play through it and see what it was like; I was able to happily watch him play the game for what would have been close to an hour (in some instances I enjoyed it more, because I didn't have to focus on which button to press, and was simply able to watch what happened in the QTE's and the scenery that was being fought on). I think that takes it out of the realm of being simply another game, and transforms it into an experience.
