technology has advanced to the point where video games have become more
beautiful than ever before. My first gaming computer was a Commodore
64, and as much as I love those 2D graphics...it's a real shocking
comparison, even to games one can get on one's cell phone.
Most recently I played "God of War 3" for the PS3...this game is truly
amazing. From the opening scenes...which are visually stunning, one
doesn't realize the game play has even started. The controller can not
be put down even for cut scenes, as one can never know when a button
sequence might pop up. The game is so well executed, the story, the
graphics, and the game play...that an overall sense of harmony is
achieved.
Video games like "God of War 3" totally engulf the player into the game.
You become the character, you get sucked into the story line. It's easy
to see why most video games are later made into movies (which by the way
do the games no justice at all!) . The game is complete eye candy, and
keeps one interested until the very end. Even after I beat it, I wanted
to go back and play on "God Mode" (hard). This game might be long
stretch from what I grew up with, but it's impossible not to appreciate
the craftsmanship that make a game like this possible.
