History <strong>in</strong> a<br />
WAY
Some of best sell<strong>in</strong>g games of 2018 were<br />
games with historical <strong>in</strong>fluences <strong>in</strong>side<br />
them.<br />
Makes learn<strong>in</strong>g <strong>history</strong> fun. The reason why is the<br />
games have fun gameplay and stories mixed with<br />
<strong>history</strong> elements teach<strong>in</strong>g you someth<strong>in</strong>g that you<br />
may have never known go<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>to it. From my<br />
experiences with games like these, I had been able to<br />
learn from those games and use that <strong>in</strong>formation <strong>in</strong><br />
my social studies class becom<strong>in</strong>g a useful asset for<br />
me.<br />
The Misconceptions of video games. Some people<br />
th<strong>in</strong>k that all video games make you stupid and are a<br />
waste of time. Except they haven't even played all of<br />
them but are just mak<strong>in</strong>g it up so they could create<br />
controversy. Most games have some elements that you<br />
can learn from mak<strong>in</strong>g you a little bit smarter <strong>in</strong> the<br />
process.<br />
It’s not go<strong>in</strong>g to teach you everyth<strong>in</strong>g. Even though<br />
you have learned much from these games they won’t<br />
teach you everyth<strong>in</strong>g. You will still need to pay<br />
attention <strong>in</strong> class and try your best you should be<br />
able to balance that out so you can be successful at<br />
school and be able to play video games and learn<br />
from them.

The rat<strong>in</strong>g systems <strong>in</strong> video games and<br />
are they a problem to consumers?<br />
The ma<strong>in</strong> aspect of the rat<strong>in</strong>g system is to regulate the gam<strong>in</strong>g<br />
content a consumer is allowed to buy legally if they meet the<br />
age requirements to play that game. The mean<strong>in</strong>g of the rat<strong>in</strong>g<br />
goes like this, eC stand for early childhood like if there is no<br />
offensive content and is safe for toddlers and grow<strong>in</strong>g little<br />
m<strong>in</strong>ds, E which stand for everyone you can catch my drift, E<br />
10+ is like the same but the content is a little bit more extreme<br />
for the younger people, T that stands for teen when the content<br />
is graphic as <strong>in</strong> blood, and mild language, etc, next is a big titan<br />
when it comes to a games rat<strong>in</strong>g M when we get <strong>in</strong> to the gore,<br />
<strong>in</strong>tense language, partial nudity and more many games have<br />
been cursed by this rat<strong>in</strong>g, the next rat<strong>in</strong>g is for adults only and<br />
I can’t expla<strong>in</strong> why who reasons I don’t want to say, and the<br />
f<strong>in</strong>al rat<strong>in</strong>g if you could call it that is RP rat<strong>in</strong>g pend<strong>in</strong>g it is be<strong>in</strong>g<br />
<strong>in</strong> the process of rat<strong>in</strong>g .
This is where the problem starts we will be go<strong>in</strong>g back all<br />
the <strong>way</strong> before the rat<strong>in</strong>g systems existence. 1994<br />
N<strong>in</strong>tendo has added a <strong>new</strong> game to the SNES called<br />
Mortal kombat it <strong>in</strong>cluded Blood (only if you turn on a<br />
cheat code), gore, and reveal<strong>in</strong>g outfits for some of the<br />
characters. Parents were outraged with this and decided<br />
to found the organization called ESRB. They are the<br />
reason the video games rat<strong>in</strong>gs are around. The<br />
problem is that some games do not deserve the rat<strong>in</strong>g<br />
the ESRB gives it. Because of the ESRB rat<strong>in</strong>g the<br />
game M or Ao even if the game does not present any of<br />
these elements.
