The rise of games

[Sir Frizz]

A fairly reliable source has informed me that sales of games have exceeded those of cinema tickets

WERE TAKING OVER!"£$%$^

maybe, but look at it this way, your options are:

• Cinema: watch a film with no plot but rakes of special effects
• Home: play a game with no plot but rakes of special effects

So, games obviously have better special effects

Surely its because of the rise in home video/DVD that causes a decline in cinema tickets, not necessarily because games are selling better.

A what is a "game", I'd be hard-pressed to call FF a "game", its so linear its almost exactly like watching a DVD.

you guys play the wrong films I guess

You are purposfully excluding the battle side of it, which makes it a game surely?

The "battle" sequences aren't that much better than selecting clips on a regular DVD menu, so its closer to a DVD movie than you think.

 

[Sir Frizz]

in what way?

 

[old.Kez]

I'd much rather watch a film that play a game.
