About this video:
In this video, I'll try to make the argument that video games are capable of fulfilling the need for a thrill that many of us seek from the comfort of our seats. Many seek that thrill from wars and sports but why aren't more people talking about video games as the best (peace-time)alternative? We will talk about games such as alien isolation, metal gear, ico, and Forza. In real life, some find the near-death experiences of riding a motorbike at high speeds or wars as a source of thrill. Can the same thrill be found in Video Games?
