5 Events and Incidents In Video Games

Posted on 06 July 2010 by admin

From Source: Kokugamer

Every so often, events that transpire in video games demand the attention of gamers, the media, and politicians everywhere. Sure some of these events stir up a bit of controversy, but others tell tales that we just marvel in, and become completely amazed that something like this could actually happen. Some of these events create frustration, while others create a feeling of unity and belonging. This is a list of 5 events that I reflect back upon and really consider that gamers have really understood the importance of creating experiences for themselves. Whether their good or bad, or even odd and just nearly unthinkable experiences.

Listropolis' Take:

I'm not a gamer, so I have no idea if this list is any good, but it's trending, and we want to keep our gaming fans happy. :)

3 Coolest Unlocked Characters in Gaming History

Posted on 16 May 2008 by admin

From the Site:

Games invent worlds with rules, and in these worlds, secrets are magic. Tricks and codes are the perfect way to appendage value to a game without having to mess with the basic flow of it. Easter eggs about as old as gaming itself, adding intrigue and establishing a playful line of communication between player and designer. The most fun secrets lead to unlocked game elements, rewarding you for your hard work playing (or looking up codes) with new tools and functions, but the best of those are the unlocked characters. The examples below show three famous badass unlocked characters, each accessible in totally different ways, each interacting with the player in different ways as well.

8 Video Games That Changed My Life – plus, Free NES Giveaway

Posted on 30 April 2008 by admin

I was born in 1976, so video games were a huge part of my life. I don't have as much time to play them now, but I do have a Wii, which I enjoy, but miss that feeling of opening the newest, best-graphics-ever, can't stop playing, games. It occurred to me recently that many of the games I played as a child, and teenager, changed my life in many ways.

Here are the 7 games that changed my life, and how they did it:

#1 - Mattel Electronic Football (1977)

I still remember my neighbor getting this amazing creation. I was about four years old, but I remember being blown-away by the cool noises it made. I didn't understand it, or have a clue how to play it, but I carried it with me as often as I could.

How it changed my life: I don't know if Mattel branded the units, but my neighbor's had a Tampa Bay Buccaneers logo (yeah, the orange and white one). The day I saw this game, I became an instant Bucs fan. Continue Reading
