Concluding Blog.

The beginning of this blog assignment seemed simple at first, just play different games and blog about them every week and just continue to do that till May with what seemed like no meaning for it. What I learned from playing these games, was that it isn't a pastime time or just a form of entertainment (even though gaming does have those aspects). Instead I learned from playing and blogging about the games, I learned that it isn't something that nerds do in front of a computer or create using weird Math equations that help program the games. What gaming is and the time it takes to design the games, is a very complicated process with companies numbering in the hundreds that work on these game to bring fun to gamers all over the world. Something of the CEO's of these gaming companies are not even what you would call "nerds" they are just regular people with the gift and talent to know how these things work and have the means to turn their talents into forms of entertainment for the people of the gaming world. When I was doing this assignment at first it seemed like something that was just to pass the time, but everytime I would play a new game and blog about it my mind slowly began to change and soon I had the mindset that instead it was time well spent on learning the different things that each game contains and with a few games, reliving classic moments that I had while playing certain games (both old and new). Everytime I played a game I was trying to think if me and the skills I  have acheieved so far in my class are enough to create a game that is the same if not better than the ones I have been doing blog's on, but let's be real. I can't yet! The companies that have created these games have taken years of personal and professional experience and time to create sometimes one game. Also they are working with computer graphic technology that is out of my grasp in my class. But even though I can't create the next game of the year, I can't still make games in my class that others may find entertaining and I hope to achieve that in my class.
