The story of how video games have changed the mind of man, women, and transvestite.
It started with the invention of pong, a simple game bouncing a ball from two sticks. Object of the game? To score on your opponent.
Through the realization of this technological world we were given some of the greatest gifts life could ask for.
Not to sound high-strung or nerdy, but hands down "Final Fantasy Series" takes the cake for all video games. But that is just a genre of games. My self and others included enjoy RPG games, in which the story lines are long, intense, and an enjoyable play.
While others prefer games that are shooters. Like Team Fortress 2, Halo, etc.
If games that evolve from a certain series seem to be drifting from the story line, they tend to go downhill. I found that Halo picked up in the third story, until the newest version ODST came out, and ruined the series.
Games which usually end up having an amazing storyline is the Tales series, by Namco. Multiplayer action, awesome moves, and amazing game play. It's fun for the whole family!
But if online internet games are as good as games for consoles (xbox, playstation, wii) why do most of them suck? That means maplestory, World of Warcraft, Ragnarok, Guild Wars.
You are stuck with games you have to pay for month after month (Yes you nerds, I am including World of Warcraft here), why would you want to level up your level 24 Bull Warrior, when you could be doing something more productive in your life (little to say that writing this is worthwhile.)
Finally, I feel that games give people a way to express themselves more fluently then they are able to with words. It allows you to find a way to solve problems, waste countless hours, and help you through struggling times. Why would you want to deal with your girlfriend/boyfriend when you could be fighting a magician?!?! Or shooting the head off a sniper, yes head shot~~
In the end, I find that video games are a relief and a huge success. As it gives you time to relax, and well they are just plain fun.
