Honestly, I think I was more capable of focusing my attention on beating games when I was a kid than I am now. I mean not only did I complete games that required you to sit through them from beginning to end with no saves, I also did it multiple times with basically no variations in gameplay. Now when I beat a game the first time I put it aside, even if there are save slots and reasons to replay the game like Mass Effect.
