What are the qualities that make a videogame worth spending 3 sleepless days and nights on? MWEB GameZone writer, Stephanie Duchenne, takes a look.
It's important in life to maintain a broad palette when it comes to culture and the arts. Hideo Kojima agrees, as he continues to use video games like Death Stranding to introduce people to music and other elements they might not otherwise discover.
Mojang has partnered with Merlin Entertainments to build the world's first Minecraft theme park in the UK.
A three-episode live-action adaptation of the first two Yakuza video games will debut Tuesday, March 17 exclusively IGN. Each episode is about an hour long and will stream on IGN.com and IGN’s YouTube channel.
I agree with the quality of storyline, then being able to connect to the characters and able to connect to the mission - it must matter. Therefore, Mass Effect series. On the other hand, I've played few games the way I played GRID and NFS - I got blisters on my hands from playing so long without taking a break
it makes you feel - like a prince/princess; powerful; in control; like you're a winner; that you can cope; that you're making a visible, measurable difference; liek you're being someone or something that you normally could not be.
All these and more.
Thanks Fallout Series and EVE Online!
If a game is immersive then I tend to binge to the point where I eventually get sick of it and don't play it for a long time after.
Last game I really binged on was Minecraft back in about 2009. I binged on that so hard that I didn't play it for 2 or 3 years.
Also binged on Burnout games, mainly Paradise.
I find RPG's are easier to binge on than other games - but they have to be really good / immersive and have a great story. I usually binge on Disgaea games, but the last proper RPG I got very immersed in was Blue Dragon.
Fallout 3 .. even when I wasn't playing it, I was thinking about it ^_^
