Review of Video GamingInsightful perspective on the video gaming culture from one of it's ranks. While clearly biased, the piece still offers a broad range and serious perspectives, both pro and con, on the gaming culture. Most notably, his own mother offers a well balanced insight without seeming overly protective of her son. She even provides the best humor to the piece while still maintaining her credibility as a commentator on the subject.

Review of Video GamingOh man, video games. I used to be way into them, before technology passed me by. I think that someday, when I have the money, I'll buy a decent enough computer to enjoy some of what I've been missing. Yeah, some video games can help people learn, and yeah, some video games are works of art. But on the other hand, I used to be WAY into them, and I hate to say it, but honestly, it probably did contribute a lot to my serious lack of social skills. I didn't even have gamer friends. But it was an enjoyable piece. It gives a voice to the people who play games for fun and enjoy them for what they are. The levels need a some work when it comes to the sound clips from games. |

Review of Video Gaming
Video Gaming is a commentary about video games and why they are good, bad or otherwise. This isn’t about the video games themselves and if they are good or bad but if they are good or bad on your body and mind. This reporter brought up the point that they can have both effects, pointing out that surgeons use them to warm up before surgery, and also on the body, from the obvious effects of playing dance, dance revolution. Over all this reporter had an awesome story and I would love to listen to more of his stories.
