I have a great idea for a video game but have little or no experience in programming or computers. How would I go about being a video game writer, like a screenplay writer? Is there a certian fromat that it would have to be written in for submission to an actual designer?

What does it mean when you’re no longer interested in video games?

video games
Butterfly asked:


You used to play video games a lot through out your teens(adventure, rpg, no gory crud just clean games for everyone). Well you’re 23 now and you decided to go back into playstation and bought ps2. You’ve played your old games again and played the new games. Now you’re just sick of all of them, old and new and not really interested in video games.

What does this mean? That you grew up? That you matured?

What places are good to sell used video games?

thunderdragoonx asked:


Does Hastings buy video games? If so, do they give you more money than Gamestop? I’ve been reading some other answers on here and people say that Gamestop rips you off. I have some games I want to sell, but I don’t want to sell them online because it’s a hassle. First you have to take the pictures, get the boxes, and ship them. And you don’t even know how long it’s going to take for somebody to actually want the games. So what are the best places to sell video games in person?

Are violent video games and movies really that bad for kids?

video games
Nicholas H asked:


I have a 5 year old son, and I’ve always been very flexible on what types of movies and video games he plays. I’ve always been more concerned with limiting the time to video games and movies, not so much the content. He’s watched band of brothers with me, and likes it alot. He also likes to play violent video games like Halo and Saints Row. I know the concept of letting my son shoot cops on a video game is repulsive to some, but I’ve always tried to catch him off guard with questions considering the difference between reality and movies/games and he almost reacts like I’m stupid for asking, of course he knows the difference. He has a good sense or morality to him, and even asks very inquisitive questions like Why are they fighting each other, why are the Germans the bad guys, etc. It actually invokes a lot of thoughtful questions from him, yet he never expresses any violent sentiments at all (except maybe while playing a game). Any thoughts?
One problem I have with my line of thought, though, is that movies with a lot of sexual material would be okay, which I don’t agree with. My half-ass rationale though is that children, boys especially, are born with a natural sense of aggression and violence, they can understand it. Not to say aggression and violence are good virtues, but they seem to comprehend it and its implications. Yet sexual material is beyond their grasp until after puberty (even then it’s questionable). There’s something wrong with the fact that violence is more acceptable than sex, but I think that’s the truth. Boys wrestling and playing guns with each other is a common sight, playing first date with other girls is not.
