Video Game Debate

I tweet a question concerning video games and the industry surrounding them, you respond, and I retweet the best responses. Let's debate!

[Video Game Debate @VGDebate]

The first of the new batch of questions - which is more important to you in a video game: good characters or a good story?

[Video Game Debate @VGDebate]

My apologies for the complete radio silence. My job is quite busy. But I am back with more questions to debate!

[Video Game Debate @VGDebate]

This is somewhat of a contentious question: should Nintendo drop out of the console market? What should they do with their software?

[SyanArt Station @SyanArt_Station]

@VGDebate anyway I would say no! just picture those events where they show a 10 min gameplay, that's a let's play and it feels awesome!

[Video Game Debate @VGDebate]

Do "Let's Plays" cheapen the artistic experience of story-driven video games?

[Video Game Debate @VGDebate]

Morning Question: What books should be adapted into video games, and why?

[SyanArt Station @SyanArt_Station]

@VGDebate I vote for Objective and at the end personal opinion But the real question is how we can say what is Good or Bad in a objtive way?

[Video Game Debate @VGDebate]

Question for today: How can gaming journalism be improved? Should journalists be more objective or subjective?

[Video Game Debate @VGDebate]

I'm enjoying the responses so far to the questions I've posted. Everyone on here is cool. :)

[CORN IS LIFE @ronbobcorncob]

@VGDebate Games being manufactured rather than created in a more...artistic manner

[Video Game Debate @VGDebate]

Second question before I start my work: what would you say is the most pressing issue video games should tackle these days? (Social, etc.)

[Video Game Debate @VGDebate]

@MrSyanArt I don't have a set tweet limit yet, but I think 2-3 tweets per question response should be okay for now. :)

[SyanArt Station @SyanArt_Station]

@VGDebate so be sure to get hard critics about that. this can be good and bad depending what you want to do. for general I would say NO.

[SyanArt Station @SyanArt_Station]

@VGDebate there's not an easy answer here... getting into real world wide politic questions may polarize the audience of the game...

[Video Game Debate @VGDebate]

@Rpergent Thanks! I'm really hoping to stir up excellent discussion and promote more intellectual conversation on Twitter in this way. :)

[Video Game Debate @VGDebate]

One minor note: if you want to respond, make sure to reply to the original question's tweet so that others can follow your argument.

[Video Game Debate @VGDebate]

First question: should video games delve into politics? Why or why not?

[Video Game Debate @VGDebate]

I'm going to spend the next couple of days thinking of great questions and will be tweeting as regularly as I can, so keep an eye out!

[Video Game Debate @VGDebate]

I tweet the question, you reply with your thoughts, and I retweet the best responses I read. Make your best case!

[Video Game Debate @VGDebate]

Questions can range from the silly to the serious, from simple to complex, from the mundane to the controversial.
