Charlie Brooker Game Wipe Video:

I have just watch Charlie Brooker give his opinion on games in the past and games today and I agree on some the points and that is games have become more violent but also more involve with the user of the games system such Virtual Reality Games.

I agree with what Dara O'Brien said about games and that is a lot of Denial of Content in many games where there is not a lot of access to certain areas in the game plus games have become more challenging and so it is a lot harder to get to the end or the boss.

There are many types of game which work on many different types of platforms for instance Role Playing games I find are more for a PC platform rather than a console. Games have been viewed by the Media as childish and have become unpopular, they also have said certain games should not be for sale such as Man Hunt because of the content.

It interesting to see different people reactions towards gaming now than when gaming first arrived and people's views have considerable changed over the years and I think this is due to the content of the games and also the effect it has on children and teenagers.

When gaming first arrived the game content was a lot simple and many of them were innocent and not violent at all however the games has dramatically increased in the past twenty years and now gaming is every and even in our homes. I personally enjoy gaming however some games are over the top and I agree games like Man Hunt should not be sold of the shelves as it is to violent and insane.
