Not being able to pause!

Am i the only one who cannot comprehend video games where they do not allow you to pause during cutscenes? Re5 and revelations do not let you pause in the middle of a cutscene.

Games used to not let you skip cutscenes either. The abilty to pause cutscenes didn't become common until recently. Chances are that someday nearly every game will let you pause them in the future just like how nearly every game lets you skip them now.

I also hate it when you accidentally hit a button and the game decides you're trying to skip it so it skips it. I like that games are now prompting you to skip first.

Accidentally skipping cutscenes is especially bad with PS3 controllers since putting it down to the ground has a high chance of pushing one of the triggers down.

I much like the fact that in most games nowadays the games have the decency to ask you if you want to skip the cutscene.

If you're on PS3, hitting the PS button will pause some games mid-cutscene.
