Thank for explaining it so thoroughly. Great article. "
Yeah I am a huge Ratchet and Clank fan so while I didn't agree with what Greg I still support him taking a stance. I liked the game too it was fun but I really wanted a normal RandC game."
I couldn't agree with you more about IGN actually taking a stance when previewing a game. Greg Miller basically told Insomniac that he didn't like Ratchet and Clank: All for One.
The response in the comments was so.........disheartening and it really floored me. If readers are not hoping to know what to avoid and look out for then the premise of the entire article is void.
Well said."
If you don't think it’s a sport that totally fine. The point of the article was to give it a chance and with all due respect I don’t think you are. Read Kane’s book and image what it means to these people.
If someone could develop a game that utilizes motion in a way that adds to a competitive game then cool but so far that’s not even an option.
Kobe is a beast and he’s arguably the best at what he does as is Aaron Rodgers, Sabathia, and George St Pierre. Wong is the best at what he does as is MVP, Viscant, Phil Hellmuth.
Again if you don’t like E-sports, or even think it’s a sport, that your right but be a little more open to the work and effort these people put into it because it is way more than pressing buttons. Just like its way more than throwing a ball into a hoop, kicking a ball into a net, or hitting a ball with a stick."
The sport doesn't come from the screen itself, nor from your fantasy, but from the competion between the team/player, the screen acts as the mechanism to display the systems at work governing the competition.
I disagree that current games are the limitation as the original Starcraft is still player professionally in Korea, MvC 2 was a huge draw for over ten years and CS is still one of the biggest over a decade later.
I don’t understand what you mean when you say video game companies are controlling your motions.
Your right SC2 will never emulate a west coast offense but neither will a perfect draft in NASCAR, runner runner spades in Hold'um, or for that matter a perfect pitch on a full count. The differences between sports do not negate them.
This is a great discussion and I hope we continue."
Anyways your point is well made. But i would say there are standards between games and maybe we could look at MvC as its own branch and so on."
