Greatness: The Allure of Video Games. Video games reward - TopicsExpress



          

Greatness: The Allure of Video Games. Video games reward resourcefulness and cleverness and skill. We experience tangible success with our victories. Much that is not experienced in the humdrum of everyday life can be found in games. BUT, there is also a danger lurking in its promise. Games do not offer us TRUE greatness, but only its temporary counterpart. Its fun to win a game of Catan with your friends. Its exhilarating to come out on top in a Rumble Pit match of Halo. I think these things are good. But they do not make us great. They do not connect us to true community. And most importantly, when made an idol, can actually distract us from those mundane things that make us truly great.
