The credits for the old Splinter Cell games were always quite extensive, as I recall. It always felt like they would never end, because each time it seemed it was about to another long list of names surfaced, which was only worsened by the fact that they were unskippable. I didn't mind it my first time through, but since I had a habit of replaying games a lot back then, having to sit through them again and again and again really started to grate on me.
Unskippable credits are possibly the stupidest thing ever. I don't care who all worked on the game. If I did, I'd click on the "credits" button in the options menu.foxhound_fox
I agree that skippable credits (and cut scenes, for that matter) should be included by default, but I can't say I blame them for not being so either. They worked hard to produce the game, after all. The least they deserve is some sort of recognition for their work.
What I love is games that let you keep playing during the credits (Devil May Cry 3).foxhound_fox
You know, I'm surprised that that hasn't taken off at all. You'd think that an interactive medium such as this would jump at the chance of keeping the players engaged until the very end rather than make them sit through a static list of names for good number of minutes. Flower and flOw worked in the credits in some cool ways, but I haven't heard any any other such examples in modern games.
