My Opera Games page opens, insightful commentary ensues |
Ó
Well, for those fans of the Wii out there who've heard about the release of the Opera browser, you'll be glad to also know that the My Opera website has its Games page up for people to browse around. Even more poignantly, however, is one of the opening articles made on the site, which seeks to give an even-handed look at videogaming in general, talking about both the good and the bad of console gaming from the perspective of an average gamer.
In Anton Espinoza's "Welcome to Video Games" article, he describes the gaming rhetoric, from what a "gamer" is to what games and gaming consoles are out to do. From describing the feelings of parents everywhere, to describing the tension between gamers and the media today, he makes gamers proud because he goes past fanboy stereotypes to talk about one of the greater issues about games: what they truly are in relation to the people who buy then.
He even likens video games in general to a washing machine, saying that despite the numerous settings a washing machine may have, it has one goal: to clean clothes. In the same vein, regardless of the games you buy, each and every game and console out there has one goal, he says: "to bring entertainment to the home." The only issue there is finding the appropriate game for your household.
That's something for every gamer to figure out, we suppose, but there's a lovely voice of reason in this article that definitely won't steer you wrong.
