Next time you feel like publicly ripping a studio apart for its work

Next time you feel like publicly ripping a studio apart for its work, try to picture how bummed those people are that you don't like what they worked for months upon months on, that what they poured all that work into didn't come out well. You don't have to like their game, and you can be angry about your wasted money. Just replica Patek Philippe 5146P Men's Watch remember it's always more complicated than it looks.Don't Forget This Is Supposed To Be FunI write a lot about how saying “it's just a game” is dismissive of the potential in interactive entertainment. I write a lot about how “fun” isn't really the true point of game design.

And I very much believe those things, but at the same time, we're all “in this thing” because we love to play. More and more of us are sharing games with others and playing online, or with your family in the living room, things like that.Some people say they don't make games like they used to, that gaming isn't as fun and exciting replica Patek Philippe 5146J Men's Watch anymore as it was in the days of the old school. But maybe it's because we've forgotten about our joy. We were easy to please in the days of less advanced games because we didn't expect much. Now we expect the moon and we boil over when we don't receive it.

We blow ambivalently through legions of AAA titles and talk a lot about 2011, 2012 because want to know when the next great thing is coming. We watch the business and the finance of the industry as if it were a sport.Let's try to remember, at least sometimes, how much we really love gaming. Let's open up our replica Patek Philippe 5146G Men's Watch imaginations so that play can capture them again. If your family celebrates Christmas, spend the holiday together with them and show them your favorite games. Sharing them with cousins or nieces, showing them off and describing them to nephews and hometown friends might help you hang onto how happy you are to be a gamer.
