Games Evolution

All games are fun, wether they're puzzle games, action, strategical, or violent games. However some games are more violent then others or more educational than others.

Some of our favourite characters grew up with us through out the years and it's interesting to see the development and way it keeps our hold after all these years.

Today's games graphics have changed substantially from before. As the picture above shows their are drastic changes in the animation itself.

Another thing about games is that they have become really complicated. Besides being more advanced, being high tech animation wise and playing wise gaming has evolved in many different ways. Instead of just a game boy and having only one system the gaming world has expanded with many different forms and attachments.

Old games and new games alike still serve the same general meaning. That games are to have fun with and to relax with. Unfortunately games today or modern games are starting to lose the purpose of relaxation or fun. Well then again, all games are fun, but some games are demeaning or hurtful to other cultures, people, and mostly sexes.

Girls in most games or if not all games are regarded as toys or nothing more then eye candy.

This particular picture isn't that bad regarding girls but other games like Dead or Alive isn't very appealing.

I think that games these days have turned beneficial towards us if we choose to. There are games like Brain Age Academy, Wii Fit and other educational/activity games that could help us. There is no replacement for the good outdoors and books but some games are just trying to make the things we distaste seem more pleasurable for us.

Some games on the other hand are not considered as games to some parents, since the game is too violent or inappropriate. Depending on how you look at games they can be helpful, fun or shouldn't be used.

Games these days have turned realistic. Modern games are taking forms from real life situations. Like games based on war, family, jobs, pets and many other life situations.

I don't really consider them games anymore (the real life situated ones) since to me, games are fantasy created animations where you are able to do things or see things not possible, like Mario games or final fantasy games. Also that they are a chance to do things you can't do in real life, they are things that come from your imagination and/or dreams. When a game is based on real life situations there is a chance that they will occur in your actual life if you want it to happen, so there's no point in playing these games.

My ending statement is that games can be considered as anything depending on what you play and how you think of it. Video Games should not be hated and they shouldn't take over your lives. Games are just something to past the time in when you have nothing to do.
