Love the game ad, and it doesn't sound too far fetched, especially if you grew up in the 80's gaming era.
7 hour unpausable quicktime epic - if you take out the quicktime, there's multiple games that fit that criteria. The one I hated the most was Lufia 2. The secret dungeon unlocked near the end of the game required you to play straight through 100 levels, each one random, with no saves, with permanent death, and your characters were stripped naked and rolled back to level 1 at the start of the dungeon. The longest I ever played was 9 straight hours and I gave up at level 70 or so.
If you import one game from Mexico.... - Ha! Having recently returned from the land of bootlegs and knockoffs (Japan and China), this made me really chuckle.
