The 'PS2' is a prime example of how a games console can change the way we think in society today. 'MGS2' which is the most realist game to date and conatins the most compelling graphics and some of the greatest gameplay that we have ever witnessed. If we go back to the release of the first ever 'MGS' it shows how much power it took to run back then to how much it does now, this is progression but at such an alarming rate.
The 'PS2' isn't the console that has/will change the way we game but it is part of an ever growing chain which the SEGA MEGA DRIVE brought to life in the early 90's. Power means a lot of things, 'SONY' want power, the 'PS2' is power and the gaming industry is becoming ever more powerful thanks to comapnies like 'SONY' and 'MICROSOFT'.
The 'PS2' is the first next-generation console that has delivered such compelling titles as: GT3, GTA3, MGS2, Pro Evolution, THPS3, Devil May Cry and many other AAA grade titles that have given us something that we could only dream about in the past as we bashed away on 'SONIC' thinking that are world could not possibly get any better but due to the POWER chain it proves it can!
A lot of people that I know take for granted the Power that the 'PS2' delivers and they do not even think that when they are buying a game the time and effort that went into making the game and the Power that it will ake to run it.
Movies, Games, electrical appliances are getting more powerful as each day goes by and it does not seem to show any signs of slowing down what so ever.
The release callendar for this year on the PS2 is looking truly amazing, 'Tekken 4, FFX, The Getaway, Stuntman, VF4, MOHF, Spider man:the movie', and lots more titles that are becoming evre more powerful as we progress through the gaming industry today.
We demand and we get! Whatever we want in a game it will pop up a few months later and this is due down to the power that delivers our greatest desires.
The 'PS2' internet will make it all the more powerful and will give gamers yet another prospect of gaming giving us more freedom to download, test and then eventually buy! The graphical enhancements in the gaming industry is also an evergrowing trend which gives us a different prospect on life and how we game. 'GTA3' was like an escape from our lives and taking on the role of someone that secretly we want to be, 'GTA3' is like a virtual reality world that we can escape to when we get bored of our lives or when we want to release some stress.
'GTA3' is a powerful game in many respects, it has a very powerful effect on our minds and the way we think. We would not say to our parents, "Mom I just ran over a Drug Pusher in a stolen car", I know if I did they would not be pleased and would want to know why I wanted to do this, but if we do not say anything at all then it is a secret desire that we can dream about but keep to ourselves. This is power in its true form, a game projected into our minds can have this emotional and powerful effect on what our secret wishes are.
Games are powerful and sometimes show ourselves what we would secretly want to do if we had the choice and if we could just click save or restart. Games bring dangerous situations to life without the risk of us getting hurt, this has a powerful effect on the way we think and act towards other people.
In America some sick adolescent youngsters take video games to a new level and try and re-in-act what they have seen and played on their 'TV' screens, they cause devistation and up-set which has a negative effect on everyone invloved, this is where the power becomes too dangerous and out of hand, this shows the negative effect that games can have on our minds but it also shows what true power can make us do!
I have come to the conclusion that Power can take our minds on an eventful journey which started off with a comapny like 'SONY' using Power to create something that in the past could only be dreamed about and not brought into a real life situation. But dreams are as far as we should take such games as 'GTA3' and 'MGS2' because trying to re-create such games will only result in a very negative form of Power which will not benefit anybody.
The different forms of Power in the video-gaming industry have been explained and I want you to think about what you have read and cast your own views on what you think Power can do!
Nice post
