Why Video Game Aren't View Like Movie By Ben Redmond
Ever since the Nintendo Entertainment System was released in July 15, 1983, later released in North America during 1985, in Europe during 1986, and Australia in 1987, games have been on the forefront of pop culture and technology, but what is a video game in basic terms. It is an electronic game that involves human interaction with a user interface to generate visual feedback on a video device. The word video in video game traditionally referred to a raster display device, but it now implies any type of display device that can produce two- or three-dimensional images. The electronic systems used to play video games are known as platforms; examples of these are personal computers and video game consoles.
the key word here being "involves" so by that you would think that Video games are the best medium and yes they are kind of, but what keeps holding back video games is their story's why isn't there a Citizen Kane or a The Shawshank Redemption of games yet.ย Any smart gamer has asked the same question and the answer is that video game story's are still way behind, if you think about it it does make sence, that's why you get people like Anita Sarkeesian and other thinking that video games are sexist witch is laughable, but this is about video games not an opinion piece.
Wouldn't it be mind-blowing to have a game like 2001: A Space Odyssey where it really makes you think about everything you've done up to that point or another great game like movie The Shining where one person thinks the game means this and another person thinks the game means something else. something different for every person who plays the game, that means your breaking that story wall down and giving people something that they haven't seen before. having the best graphics and best gameplay is all well and good but when the story isn't great, and it's flat out telling you what's going to happen and tell you that your going to fight the big boss at the end of the game, it gets old pretty quickly.
Not saying games don't have good or great story lines, like the last of us had an amazing story line but those games come few and far between to make something happen in the video games industry, hell call of duty is still selling monster numbers every year Call of Duty 4 : Modern Warfare 13,500,000 copies sold Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 23,000,000 copies sold
Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 26,500,000 copies sold. if you add all the copies sold ย Call of Duty Franchise Sales 139,600,000 copies sold, I guess it does pays to recycle.
Is this idea all a pipe dream, to have great story's ย in games that really make you think about what the game is actually about you, it remains to be seen. All gamers would relish the thought of a new IP with new way of telling a story through gameplay.
