Game Fun
This weeks readings are on "game fun" and the link I followed brought me to a site called gamasutra which is chalked full of different articles on gaming however it should be stated that the articles are out of date and the newest of which were made in 2014.
Hack-Man: An interview with Watch Dogs' creative director
The first article I read was of an interview with the creative director of "Watchdogs" Johnathan Morin. The interview touches on his feels with the game and how he feels that it is the next step in the next generation of gaming.Video games and gun violence: A year after Sandy Hook
The second article that I read was on a meeting with the U.S Vice President to speak about gun violence after a mass shooting in Sandy Hook Elementary school. This event lead to the first time that the President had taken formal political steps to study any purported link between violent video games and real-life violence. Within hours of the tragedy, Fox News was pointing fingers at video games, along with the usual suspects like reality TV and Facebook and many other news networks followed suit. CBS News went on to say that the victims of the shooting apparently amounted to some kind of 'score.'
