GameFront - Fun Fun Fun.
I don’t want games taken “seriously” by some arbitrary social judge if it means gaming itself has to be serious business. Some may consider me an uncivilized troglodyte for this, but like I said last week, I want fun games more than any other type of game. I love and respect that games can be deeper, and I am excited about the potential for interactive entertainment as a narrative medium. Again, however, I fear that discussion about the “Citizen Kane” of gaming often outweighs the discussion about whether or not Bulletstorm is awesome because you can shoot a guy in the dick. It may not be the most culturally significant thing in the world, but it’s a damn good laugh, and I think that’s the most important thing in the world.
