 Heh, it's funny how the pictures spoof too much sharing on facebook, and yet the site hosting them is covered in 'like' and 'share' buttons... xD

I don't think the article is questioning sharing and liking in the context of websites, but in the middle of a game it pulls you out and breaks the feeling of immersion. What it's really picking on is hand-holding tutorials by modern games.

This is one of the best rants/analyses I've ever seen about what is wrong with modern games and so right about classic games, and it perfectly ties in with georgec's link. If you're a retro gamer, you have to check it out:
