A recent video was released to highlight violence in video games, but many members of the community feel the footage only concentrated on a very small piece of the gaming experience. Games can be beautiful, moving, tragic, and hilarious. None of those emotions were evoked in the political video and some some members of the community have put together their own video to show the other side of the scene.
The #GameOn Together video, which is the exact same length as the violent video game montage, was produced by the Games for Change group. Here’s a look…
Although the footage length perfectly matched the violent video that it was responding to, it seems like this montage could have gone on for hours and included thousands of more touching moments. The number of contemporary games that are more about experience and emotion than violence is huge and there are many great choices that didn’t get a chance to shine in this video.
We’ll continue to monitor the ongoing video game violence debate and post updates as they arrive.
