Pushing Buttons raises some questions over the community treatment of Moshe Kai Cavalin, the 11-year-old ELAC graduate who was quoted as saying "video games are a waste of time" - an argument that bleeds into the general lack of discretion exhibited by large blog-brands today:
"With the modern video game roughly only 30 years old, the Internet community has been an integral part of the medium's culture for over 1/3 of its lifetime... The result is a group of people who have become more responsible for the public perception of video games than in any other current entertainment or artistic medium."
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.
