Why do video games have to be relevant to real life? A rebuttal


Posted on 03/12/2013 at 02:51 AM | Filed Under Blogs

I might be overstating it a little bit. I do know kids who are pretty much ignoring life because they're so much into gaming.

Easy Game Monday: Open Season

It's fun for what it is.

That it wasn't full of bugs and bad controls was a real surprise to me. It's one solid kids game.

Pandora's Tower Review


Posted on 03/12/2013 at 01:47 AM | Filed Under Blogs

I've preordered Pandora's Tower and just noticed the release date change on GameStop's website. It's now April 16th and not March 26th. Damn! 

I kinda skimmed your review because I'm afraid of spoilers but it seems like a good game. It was the game that most interested me of the three Operation Rainfall games. It seemed to me like a Japanese style God of War. Now it makes me think more of Rygar: Battle of Argus on the Wii. Which is like saying the same thing really.

I could mention some people that are revered by higher learning who played games avidly when they weren't being geniuses such as: Marcel Duchamp, who played so much Chess that he started making a living at it; Igor Stravinsky, who used to love Spaghetti Westerns (I know that's not gaming but he might have played Call of Juarez or Red Dead Redemption if he lived today); Joseph Haydn, who played cards regularly with the staff of his employer's estate; and Wolfgang Mozart, who was obsessed with Billiards and played daily.

    I've also heard theortical physicists talk about "gaming", meaning a way to test ideas by setting up a simulation. It makes me think that the act of gaming is just another way of thinking about things. So then maybe, if you don't game, you don't think. How about that for an insult to said schoolastic?

Oh cool. I'll keep my eye out for this next time I'm at this place: http://www.jaystvideogames.com/ It's the only shop carrying old school games in my area.

I can't wait to get those Star Wars tables in Pinball FX2. I looked into My Aquarium on PSN and want to play with that too.

My buddy was laughing at me after I didn't get an achievement from these supposedly easy games for several hours. When I got to Open Season though, it redeemed me, and I ended up with the last laugh.

Ha! I couldn't resist asking you that.

Wouldn't it be awesome to have wildlife tag along with you like that though? It's silly I know, but it's adorable.
