Sometimes I think a well-made video game can be so much more entertaining than a 2 hour movie, u can spend 15 bucks on a 2 hour movie or maybe 60+ bucks for a game that can last you a whole week and makes an even bigger impression on you. Take for example this game, assassin’s creed 2, I’ve been playing it since the first one and the story has been very engaging and when I turn to wikipedia to look for more stuffs, I found out that there are SO many contents and storylines related to the story of the game that I can actually spend 2~3 hours just reading up on the other related story lines and stuff.
I suppose to most people video games are just a waste of time where a guy sits in front of the computer / console the whole day and don’t ‘learn’ anything or is very unproductive, but I beg to disagree. I believe different people learn differently, and just because you are sitting in front of a book and I am sitting in front of a console, does not make me learn less than you.
The gaming industry is a force to be reckoned with, just look at the quality of the games nowadays! Even the soundtrack is freaking awesome!
