    258: Every Game Is the End of the World

    This article really does a good job highlighting some of the biggest reasons young guys play games. We want power and control, we want to go on incredible adventures. I used to have dreams of being in some world like Hyrule and having a great affecting journey. A great read, it reminds me of the...

    Poll: Can games be art?

    @Iron_Mal Thank you for your views, they really got me to see things from a fresh perspective, and that's exactly why I started this thread. I don't think I meant to really call this an "are games art" thread, but I guess I did, I just had a lot of thoughts I wanted to share on deeper meaning in...

    Poll: Can games be art?

    I believe I have been taken too literally, I merely meant to say that I like the mental tug of war revolving around such a simple, yet potentially complex question.

    Poll: Can games be art?

    I'd like to get this discussion going again after considering other forms of media. If books, movies, music, and games can all be considered forms of entertainment, surely games could somehow become art like the others. I think what makes these other forms considered art is their sacrifice...

    Pokemon Ideas?

    I think pokemon would do well with a reworking of the same routine. It has obviously been good enough to keep people playing the same adventures over and over, so why not mix it up? I agree with Aby_Z's post that they could make a version going over all of the regions. Also, why limit players to...
