Real Choice in Games is not Imminent

Article about choice and multiple paths in video games. His idea of what choice could and should be seems shallow though, partly because it's not just about RPGs, which allow for much more flexibility than FPS's and such. I mean Jedi Academy and DF2 let you make the type of decision he's talking about, and that's not very substantial...

Blog actually looks well done, and the article is decent so far.

I apologize ...

Ha yeah - sorry for the URL being 'test post' ... that was the first post on the site and I accidentally forgot to change the link from test post to the title ... now I'm reluctant to change it as a few sites linked to it and I don't want to break their links!

Anyway- glad you liked the article. Check out the others - maybe there's something in it for you. Or maybe my opinions are stupid and you can tell me so :)

Don't worry, this is the Codex. That means all opinions from all posters are automatically stupid.
