Friendly Gaming, the industry leader in covering the family
friendly video games is exploring some deep thoughts within the
video game industry. Some of these are funny. Some are odd. Some
are just plain deep. Are you ready for some deep video game
thoughts? Do you think you can handle them? Take your time and
ponder each of them fully. Then send us an email with any
thoughts you have related to our video game deep thoughts.
Why aren’t wrestling video games like professional wrestling? In
the real world matches in professional wrestling are
pre-determined. The athletes go out of their way to make sure
they are not hurting their opponents. Yet in wrestling video
games it is all about pummeling your opponent and doing moves on
them. There is no grading for how well you sell their moves.
There is no predetermined outcome. There is no backstage
politics that have to be dealt with. No dealing with all of the
travel, and seeing a few big name stars earn massive money for a
few pay per views. There is some real meat in there if video
game developers actually explored the reality of professional
wrestling? Show wrestlers trying to get back from an injury.
Maybe do a first person perspective with Kinect and have to
follow the instructions of the NPC in the ring. The better you
do the moves the better you score. Sell it, and get in trouble
for injuring them. Work on getting heat with the fans. It could
be a WWE Training type of game. Show the behind the scenes and
in the ring content. Make players deal with broken promises from
management. Deal with other wrestling organizations trying to
get you to sign with them.
Where are the video games based on the XFL and USFL? EA Sports
has a lock on the NFL in a contract. All these other companies
complain they want to make a football game. So why not make one
from the failed football leagues? Why not make a XFL video game?
Why not make an USFL video game? If you make a good football
game based on those leagues, and teams then the NFL may decide
to allow diversity within football video games. There are plenty
of anti-EA Sports fans out there who would snap up a half decent
football game no matter the teams included. Also where are the
sports games in the first person perspective? Talk about
simulating real sports games.
Why are the violent video games so unrealistic? The companies
that make these games brag about how realistic they make things.
But aspects like all the blood flying out, never running out of
bullets, and never getting arrested for murdering more than
Hitler or Stalin. I guess many of these companies feel they can
claim realism even when it is just propaganda. I am on to them
at the very least, and now you can be too.
Why is there such an imbalance in the video game industry media?
Why do they discriminate against Christians so often? When did
the video game industry get so political? Why are PR firms seen
as moochers? Do video game characters play around in the wires
like in Wreck-It Ralph? Do video game characters do anything
when we are gone like Toy Story? Has this line of question lost
all contact with reality? Have you read Video Game Lies yet? Are
all these questions driving you insane?
Why could some franchises move from 2D to 3D just fine, while
other franchises died off trying it? What is your favorite video
game mascot? Have you ever broken a controller? What is your
biggest accomplishment outside of video games? What is your
biggest accomplishment inside of video games? Why is it so hard
for video game developers to get track and field games right?
What did some companies do so poorly that sent them out of
business? Do Christian gamers only play Christian games? Why is
it that Christian games are given a label, and atheists games
are not given a label? Is your brain sufficiently full?
God bless,
